Every Body Can!
Adapted Physical Activity Video Contest Winners
Celebrate Adapted and Inclusive Physical Activity
AAPAR's Every Body Can! 2010 and 2011 video contest winners promote, celebrate, and/or teach adapted and inclusive physical activity while raising awareness about the opportunities for and accomplishments of people with disablities.
This special group is made up of general and adapted physical educators and physical activity leaders of all kinds—teachers, university faculty, recreation leaders—ideas, inspiration, specific lessons, and support for increasing disability awareness and creating effective inclusive lessons and programs. We thank them for promoting AAPAR's mission to encourage lifelong and inclusive physical activity.
