About Neuro STRONG

Neuro STRONG recognises that neurodivergent young people often face additional barriers, including anxiety, sensory overload, low confidence, social isolation, school exclusion, or behavioural misunderstandings.

​

This programme uses movement as a tool for regulation, combining gym-based training with clear routines, consistent coaching, and individualised support. Sessions are adapted to meet a wide range of needs while maintaining structure and clear expectations.

​

Neuro STRONG is suitable for young people who may:

Feel overwhelmed or anxious in busy environments

Struggle with emotional regulation or impulse control

Find team sports challenging

Need routine, predictability, and clear boundaries

Benefit from smaller group sizes and tailored coaching
