Check out this video to see how Cameron Moll & Colosseo create their version of the Roman Coliseum. This poster production is well executed, from design to print.

Fall is here and I’m starting to get goose bumps about all the new movement and opportunities brewing here at SKILLA. I want so much to let you in on some of what is going on but I hope you can be patient for a little longer (I’m waiting until all is confirmed), trust me it will be worth the wait. That being said, what I can tell you is that the new gear will be out early November. The idea is to make this a really exciting and inspiring release, that it can create a domino effect for all the others to come. looking forward to everyone’s feedback on the movement once it’s released.

Be blessed,

D.P.

Man this is what you talk about standing out. If I needed one I would defiantly look into having my kids go there just for the presentation. Very refreshing!

My good friend’s (JWILL) brother in-law has used his skills to create equipment to change children with Cerebral Palsy lives for the better.

Overview

It is the belief of doctors, therapists & parents that children with Cerebral Palsy and spasticity in their legs face a constant battle with shortened hamstrings and adductor muscles as they grow.  If not stretched daily, this tightness often contributes to orthopedic problems, which eventually require tendon release and osteotomy surgery to overcome.  To help prevent such surgery and improve the mobility and quality of life of these children, my company will partner w/ special needs organizations and specialists to identify 365 children throughout the USA that have been diagnosed with cerebral palsy & spasticity/tightness problems.  We will then build & deliver the customized equipment FREE to 365 eligible Special Needs Children.
