Greetings!

We're having a "Walking School" on Saturday, April 25th - scroll down for more info!

Credits available from FPTA.

Last year you may recall the terrific program we hosted with Todd Schaffhauser and Dennis Oehler on advanced prosthetic gait training and fitness for the lower extremity amputee.

Well after many requests, we have decided to bring them back and hope to provide an ongoing program throughout the year. Mercy Hospital has kindly offered to host the event in their Kohly Outpatient Rehabilitation Center.

Please check out the brochure and registration.
Look forward to seeing you there!

NOTE**
We are going to have a running clinic with Dennis and Todd on Friday, April 24th, if you're interested in attending, please call Terri at (305) 598-9688 ASAP.
