On September 23, 2023, a free climbing workshop for children with hearing impairments was held at the KPIskala climbing wall, organized by the NGO Public Movement "Social Unity" on the occasion of the International Day of the Deaf.
The children had the opportunity to try themselves in an exciting sport. But rock climbing benefits not only physical health, but also mental health. Rock climbing stimulates concentration, quick decision-making and builds self-confidence. This type of activity also expands one's own limits of possibilities. After all, the child learns to see his or her own barriers and overcome them by making efforts.
After receiving information about the technical aspects of climbing, the children began to practice their skills. The little climbers enjoyed the lessons and tried their hand at bouldering. Parents did not stand aside and tried their hand with their children.
This day was unforgettable for all participants. The children felt how perseverance, resilience and concentration can help you achieve what you want! And parents witnessed their children becoming more independent and open to new challenges.
