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