GLIDING STARS OF ERIE INC

The Gliding Stars of Erie Inc organization provides individuals with disabilities the opportunity to increase their personal potential through development of ice skating skills in a regular program of instruction and practice in our local community. Through ice skating our participants achieve the physical benefits of improved posture, fine and gross motor coordination, strengthened muscles, and improved balance. Our instructional program, a social and recreational activity, brings people with and without disabilities together in a team-oriented, helping environment. The achievement of progressive skills creates a positive self-image that enhances the quality of life and the skater’s ability to succeed in other life situations.
