Did you know that every year, RIDBC skills at least 30 teachers and professionals to work with children who are deaf or blind? Children who have both hearing and no vision/low vision require very highly specialized education! by @linkvisionau

Did you know that there are an estimated 1.5 million blind children world wide?⠀
Most vision conditions in children will stay the same through their life.. Some conditions might result in vision problems for only a short time, but others might get worse over time, resulting in much poorer vision or blindness as the child gets older. by @linkvisionau

What an inspirational, incredible young man! 💛⠀

Now here is a very special client!⠀
Ben was born with a unique condition known as atypical retinitis pigmentosa which means he's lost most of his central vision, has trouble seeing colour contrasts and therefore is legally blind. His fine-focus tasks such as writing and reading the kilogram numbers on a weight plate are difficult for him, as he has to use more of his peripheral vision. Due to his limited vision he’s only ever ventured within the stationary bike and pin-loaded equipment in the gym - until he signed up with me! Using specific and carefully detail cues and directions, I’ve taught him how to bench press, dead lift, squat, and several other strength-training movements that those of us without vision impairment normally take for granted. He’s learned how to use special representations of the gym, along with memorised locations of equipment and proprioception to negotiate the free-weight obstical course to the degree that he is able to train himself on our off-days. I’ve coached Ben to squat 70kg box squats for reps which is a far cry from his original 35kg only several weeks ago. I cannot express the pride and happiness I feel for this young man as he reached his very personal accomplishment of squatting on his own for the first time in his life! This goes to show that while mirrors are favourable for technical retrospection during the lift, it is not 100% necessary to achieve a heavy compound movement. 👉Of special note, in 2009 Ben competed as a disabled athlete for Swimming Victoria and in the Pacific School Games! 👉He is also currently earning his Master's of Science Degree in Gentics and Genetic Counseling. He is what can be discribed as a true Scholar Warrior! Three cheers for Ben!⠀
👉Thanks to Andrew, Ben's trainer, for sharing this inspiring story. @rugged_iron⠀
