Division of Recreation Special Needs Sports Program to team up with "Special Dragons," a Karate Program specifically designed for children and young adults with special needs.

Special Dragons was founded in 2012 by George Bostory, a certified special education teacher and three time intercollegiate black belt karate champion. It was formed due to the lack of physical sport activities available to children with special needs. George envisioned combining his special-education background with his martial arts experience, and Special Dragons Karate was born.

SPECIAL DRAGONS classes uses basic karate techniques to address issues like, eye/hand coordination, motor control, balance, sensory integration, conditioning, focus, time on task, and other challenges faced by those with special needs.

The program will meet on Sunday, March 12th, from 1:30pm to 2:30pm, at the Bayonne High School Ice Rink Gym.

”We are excited for this new opportunity for our athletes and to partner with George on a great program! I encourage everyone to come out on March 12th for Karate!" Superintendent of Recreation.
