Panda Warrior

Panda Warrior is a fun, Chinese martial arts-inspired session designed for SEND children, using play to build confidence, coordination and body awareness. Children begin with gentle stretching and breathing, then enjoy bubble games to encourage focus, movement and reaching. They use colourful long silk fans to develop balance, flowing arm movements and creativity, before stepping across soft stepping stones to practise balance and controlled kicking. Soft balls are used for safe kicking, punching, catching and teamwork games, helping to improve coordination, strength and motor skills. Every activity is adapted to each child’s ability, with plenty of encouragement, praise and opportunities to learn at their own pace in a calm, supportive and enjoyable environment.
