PERSONAL TRAINING PROGRAMS FOR SPECIAL NEEDS
Georgia Personal Training Offers Programs for Special Needs
As the parents of an autistic child, providing personal training for special needs clients is near and dear to our hearts. These kids and young adults bring out the best in us, and are an absolute joy to work with. More often than not, it is difficult to get a young adult with autism to stay physically active. Just getting them a gym membership won’t do the trick. Personal training sessions might be the answer.
AUTISM | DEVELOPMENTALLY DISABLED
EVERY SESSION WITH JUSTIN MAKES OUR DAY
JUST PEOPLE VILLAGE
GREAT WORKOUT FOR MISS KATIE
We have worked with a number of residents of the Just People Village here in Roswell, Georgia. Just People offers wonderful living accommodations for people with various handicaps and challenges. Most come from great families who can no longer care for their loved one at home. For families of people who need an independent living scenario, the environment is perfect.
Our training staff has developed and delivered personal training programs for quite a few folks who live at the Just People independent living facility, over the past few years. These folks generally need very specific programs, tailored to meet their unique and individual needs. They all need and thrive on love, support and encouragement. Our trainers are experts at providing those things and the vast majority of the clients we have served at Just People have stuck with the program for long periods of time.
PARKINSON’S | MUSCULAR DYSTROPHY | MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS | CANCER
ADRIAN WAS DIAGNOSED WITH PARKINSON’S AT AGE 40
Georgia Personal Training is located right next door to the Just People facility. We work closely with the staff at Just People Village, anytime we are working with one of their residents. The staff at Just People is really great. They coordinate with us in bringing the training clients over to the gym for their workouts. When the workouts are finished, the Just People staff coordinates getting the client back to their living quarters. Everything in the process is designed to make the training sessions a great experience for the customer.
The vast majority of the folks we have worked with really do enjoy the workouts. They look forward to coming over to the gym and you can see their excitement grow when the workout starts. Our experience with these special needs folks has really been a great one. Working with them is a truly a humbling and moving experience. The exercises are difficult for them, but, yet they try so hard to do them. You know it’s working for them when you see them smile, laugh and give out hugs to the training staff and other gym members.
