Basic Travel Skills

Mobility specialists teach students a collection of techniques traditionally called "pre-cane" skills. These skills do not necessarily precede cane instruction, so I have chosen not to use that term. These all fall under the heading of skills that should be introduced early; basic abilities that need to be in place before more sophisticated skills are addressed.
