[In Person] Outdoor Adventures
Exploring Austin by Akhila Rayasam and Sidney Harris
Available spots
Service Description
In this course, we will be learning about various attractions in Austin, and the importance of physical activity for the body! Each class will be centered around a different attraction in Austin, and will include both a lecture and activities that pertain to the attraction. Additionally, this course will include an optional “field trip” component, with excursions scheduled that students can attend, such as seeing the Bat Caves at Congress bridge or visiting Ladybird lake! These “field trips” will not occur during class time, and will be optional for students to attend. Students will leave this class with a better understanding of the importance of physical activity, and with more knowledge of opportunities for activity throughout Austin!
Upcoming Sessions
Cancellation Policy
Our classes operate on a first-come, first-serve basis, with limited seating for up to 13 participants to ensure a quality learning experience. By registering, you reserve a valuable seat that may prevent others from joining. We understand that plans can change. However, cancellations made within one week of the class start date are not eligible for refunds. If you are unable to attend, we are happy to offer a course voucher, allowing you to apply your registration toward a future class of your choice. Parent/Guardian Attendance Policy Our program is designed to empower adults with IDDs to participate in classes at UT Austin alongside their peers, including both other adult students and college students. We encourage our participants to build self-confidence, practice age-appropriate social skills, and experience the independence of a college environment, just as any neurotypical college student would. To support this mission, parents and guardians are not permitted to attend classes with their student. However, if there are special circumstances—such as a need for assistance with personal care or concerns about behavior—exceptions to this policy may be considered. These exceptions require review and approval by our Executive Director, Kaelin Rubenzer, on a case-by-case basis. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
