First nonprofit personal training service in central FL for income restricted individuals


Posted October 5, 2019 by alowms

Apt Fitness offers income based exercise solutions to disadvantaged populations to manage symptoms of autism, ADHD, depression, anxiety, and other cognitive and neurological conditions.

 
Apt Fitness, Inc., is a Florida not for profit corporation, designated by IRS as a 501(c)(3) public charity that offers exercise programs to manage symptoms of autism spectrum disorders (“ASD”), ADHD, depression, anxiety, and other cognitive and neurological conditions. Services are based on HUD income guidelines to make exercise modalities affordable for all.

Current research indicates individuals affected by ASD, ADHD, depression, and anxiety who participate in physical activity programs demonstrate significant gains in their self esteem, self efficacy, social, communication, and physical skills.

Apt Fitness, Inc., understands and is addressing the silent autism-related barriers by bringing together a network of like-minded medical, legal, and social services providers to demonstrate how exercise can be used in lieu of costly medications.

Apt Fitness, Inc., was founded by the first openly autistic litigation paralegal in Florida, to empower autists by creating a healthy environment for them to thrive. She understands the necessity of such an environment as she overcame many types of discrimination within the professional and higher educational arenas. Every individual should be given the tools and opportunities to succeed in his/her personal and professional lives. We now have two volunteer trainers - one is ACE and Barre Above certified, the other is NFPT.
