They are open 7 days a week for sailing and boating instruction, recreation, regattas, birthday parties, and special social events.

Shake-a-leg aims to instill confidence, skills, and build friendships by forming a support network to help those that enter it's programs achieve success. They rely on grant funding and other philanthropic opportunities to support these programs. They would like to partner with the Rotary and other local business/interested parties to continue to provide a means for making the lives of those with physical disabilities better and to continue to provide a wonderful gateway to the seas to the Miami community.
