TL;DR
Special Strong opens a new location in Surprise, Arizona, providing physical fitness training for individuals with physical and mental disabilities. The grand opening event will be held at Uptown Alley on October 30th.
For persons with conditions like autism, cerebral palsy, and Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, or muscular dystrophy, a growing body of evidence shows that the regular calisthenics training provided by Special Strong helps not only their physical fitness, but also feelings of self-worth and achievement.
“We are really excited about our October 30th Grand Opening at Uptown Alley, from 10am-2pm,” says Fran Poloni, who together with his wife Jayde own the franchise.
Uptown Alley is a premium bowling alley, with an arcade area and laser tag arena. It has teamed up with Red Embers Restaurant to make sure everyone gets their fill of delicious food.
“We will have a private area designated for our event, with 10 dedicated lanes along with shoes and unlimited bowling,” says Fran. “We will also be providing drinks and appetizers. There will be giveaways and raffles from us and our sponsors throughout the event.”
Special Strong West Valley AZ is a family operated business, a husband and wife team with a background in volunteer and vocational work with adults, teens, and children with unique difficulties.
“We are beyond grateful to be in a position to bring this to our neighbors with cognitive, physical, and/or mental challenges, letting them know how strong and capable they are.”
“With the support of Jayde's dad, Les, who has experience with networking and building successful franchises, our goal is to create a more inclusive and adaptive community in our surrounding cities: Phoenix, Glendale, Surprise, El Mirage, Peoria, Litchfield Park, Waddell, Goodyear, Avondale, Tolleson, etc.
