The Arc of San Diego provides a variety of health and wellness courses to people with disabilities at Our Place.
Our Place Wellness Center serves people with disabilities through yoga, fitness, dance and nutrition classes that focus on the mental, emotional, and physical health and healing benefits of an inclusive and comprehensive health and wellness program. Dr. Paul Kurtin, volunteers, & Arc staff assist with supporting the individual needs of each participant, with classes directed by Dr. Kurtin, who just completed 17 years as Chief Quality and Safety Officer and the Director of the Sadler Center for Quality at Rady Children's Hospital.
Over the past five years, Our Place Wellness Center has grown into a welcoming environment offering children & adults with disabilities adaptive yoga, fitness, and Zumba classes. We are now excited to offer a six-week Wellness Program that expands our original offerings to also include music and art therapies and nutrition training to ALL members of the community!
