What Other Professionals Are Saying:
“These training modules are informative and relevant for educators, fitness and health professionals, and others who aim to promote health and fitness among individuals with disabilities. I am glad there are people out there like you with a focus on health and disability – you are helping to bridge the gap.”
Heidi Stanish, PhD, Dept. of Exercise and Health Sciences, UMass Boston
“The AdaptX program is the missing link in the fitness and rehabilitation industry. This program will help healthcare providers and coaches bridge the gap after children with disabilities no longer receive therapy services offered in school. This will allow more coaches to offer services to these populations with the knowledge necessary to understand different behavioral patterns, learning styles, and common limitations. Not only will this help improve these athletes’ physical abilities but will further build their confidence and social skills.”
Danielle Kroot, DPT, Owner of Finish Line Physical Therapy
“If you are a special educator who is interested in creating exercise opportunities for some of your students with disabilities, AdaptX has the perfect resource to get you started. You will learn a variety of carefully sequenced physical activities based on the same strong teaching strategies you implement in your classroom and tailored to meet specific student needs.”
Dr. Linda Dacey, Professor Emeritus, Lesley University
Brendan delivered a presentation that was engaging and pertinent. The content was perfectly suited to future exercise and health science professionals who will seek to include individuals of all abilities in fitness and health opportunities. His message was focused and highly relevant, engaging the students to ask questions and become part of the important dialogue of making disability inclusion work. Having Brendan share about his background in starting his business, great success stories, the hurdles he's been met with and solutions for those hurdles was a perfect message of practical advice to these students.

I'm encouraged for the field to know the future of adaptive exercise and research is (partly) in your hands.

The AdaptX training was incredible. It prepares trainers to work with athletes with diversity. The AdaptX program was a game changer for me. I have gained a new perspective in understanding inclusion is about intentionally planning the success of all. This statement really resonated with me at this time in my life. I am grateful for Brendan and sharing his vision for change, equality, and inclusion. I would highly recommend this training program to anyone who has a passion and love for health and fitness helping clients achieve their best performance and reach their goals.
