We are an Australian registered charity specialising in performance-oriented, adaptive and inclusive fitness for young people aged 5-25yrs who are living with functional and intellectual disabilities.
We are redefining adaptive and inclusive fitness programs to improve the physical independence, life skills and social wellbeing of young people living with functional & intellectual disabilities including: Cerebral Palsy, Down Syndrome, Autism Spectrum Disorder, Acquired Brain Injury, and other conditions.
We are committed to developing young people with disabilities to become physically, emotionally and socially strong adults.
We design and deliver performance-oriented individual and small group fitness programs to improve physical and social independence. We achieve this through individually-tailored, low-high intensity training targeting functional ability, coordination, muscle strength, balance, fine/gross motor skills, emotional self-regulation, positive behaviours, self-confidence and life-skills.
