About the Speaker: Ryan Feeney has a BS Exercise Science Bridgewater State University, and certification in Autism Fitness from the Adaptive Training Academy.
Growing up an athlete I developed a passion for physical movement and exercise. Seeing a direct correlation between strength and conditioning and my success on various sports fields the natural progression began of me training athletes. While working as a college baseball coach I took a job working in Special Education in the local school system. Seeing the lack of physical outlets for these individuals I knew I could make an immediate difference.

About ASD Fit: ASD Fit Boston was developed to bring exercise to neuro-diverse individuals in a positive way. We use strength and conditioning concepts to give clients to tools to be more independent. Meeting athletes at their level allows us to be inclusive no matter the background of the individual. We consider athletes anyone who moves. From clients with TBI, Down Syndrome, Autism, Connective Tissue Disorder, Anxiety, Processing Delays, and any other situations that typically make exercise difficult ASD Fit Boston makes healthy living possible for everyone.
A proactive approach to healthcare creates habits and movement patterns that will continue to create possibilities throughout client’s lives. We hope to give everyone the skills to do everything from biking to skiing, from road races to hiking, and to most importantly never feel left out of activities being done by family and friends.
