Summary
This study tests whether a 3-week intensive summer camp combining motor skill training and functional strength exercises can improve movement and muscle function in children with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). Twenty children aged 5-17 who are already on stable disease-modifying therapy will attend 6-hour daily sessions. The goal is to see if this extra training can further enhance their motor abilities beyond medication alone.
