Jan Brunstrom, M.D., assistant professor of neurology and instructor of pediatrics, and cerebral palsy patient Emma Price demonstrate martial arts moves at “Building the Road to Independence,” a national seminar led by Brunstrom that highlights a highly effective approach to managing cerebral palsy with sports and other physical and educational activities. Charlie Walton, a karate instructor with Gateway Defensive Systems, looks on at the July 10 seminar held at the Eric P. Newman Education Center. Brunstrom received the highest honor from the United Cerebral Palsy Association Women’s Board in 2001 for her clinical work and for the martial arts program she designed for kids with disabilities.
