After motivating dozens of autistic youths in Hialeah to improve their focus, discipline and socialization, a karate instructor recently launched a training program for autistic youths in Doral, at the Legacy Park coliseum.
“One mother thanked me because her son, who is autistic and has problems speaking, has started to say hello to her.” Santander said. “These kinds of anecdotes tell us that we’re on the right path. The kids make progress, specially in socialization.”
