Functional Adaptive MovementTM (FAMTM) provides group exercise classes and one-on-one personal training sessions for people living with disabilities. Officially established in 2018, FAMTM has catered for more than 250 athletes in New Zealand, of varying degrees of ability. While FAMTM continues to expand, the mission remains the same: to provide people with disabilities the opportunity to engage i

n strength and conditioning training to improve and retain fitness and everyday function. We consider our clients to be athletes, and our athletes are the foundation of our FAMily. Our FAMily also includes health care and disability organisations, support workers, trainee students and most importantly our knowledgeable and enthusiastic coaches. As well as the physical benefits of taking part in FAMTM sessions, being a part of the FAMily provides people with a sense of belonging, connecting them to their community and allowing expansion of their social and professional networks.

Wow in such a short time @nathanioltairi has achieved so much. Today was predominantly focused on balance, coordination, accuracy amongst a few others. Seeing this CrossFitter and Olympic Lifters eyes open up to familiar skills in a different life is enough to bring tears to my eyes. Nate is putting I the Mahi (work) to attain his dreams. (Are you?) Such an honor to work with every person on the #FAM program athlete, coach and volunteer alike. Thank you all for your support and trust in what we do. I believe in your unlocked potential always.

Our Story

Michael’s career in the health & fitness industry is his calling and passion. He has worked as a Personal Trainer for over six years.

Over the last couple of years, Michael has set-up the only Adaptive Athletes program in New Zealand and grew it from scratch to currently about 210 adaptive athletes per week, with great success. His clients range from the both physical and cognitive impairments.

The interest and demand in the program has risen consistently and in early 2018, Michael decided to devote all his time to support and motivate the adaptive athletes in this country. He has set up the FAM Program (Functional Adaptive Movement) and is currently working out of two facilities in Auckland. Michael is very excited about the opportunity to offer a greater service and more classes to the adaptive community.
