Page Title

SABAH Inc. was formed as a Buffalo-based not-for-profit educational corporation in 1977.  It then expanded to include children, youth, and adults with all types of disabilities. For over 26 years, SABAH has taught 9,000 Western New Yorkers who have physical, cognitive, or emotional challenges to ice skate.  SABAH provides weekly adaptive ice skating lessons, adaptive skating equipment, intense volunteer support, and the opportunity to perform in an Annual ice-skating show at the HSBC Arena.  

Through training the skaters are encouraged to:

  • Make gains in strength and self-discipline
  • Acquire new skills on ice skates
  • Share ice skating with their family and friends as a recreational activity
  • Experience success
  • Develop a "can do" attitude
  • Acquire better overall health and wellness including: muscle strength, fine and gross motor skills, coordination, social skills, and self esteem
