Empower Through Movement: Overcoming Barriers to Sports Participation

This project, "Got to Move!" focuses on coaching individuals facing barriers to engaging in regular sports, targeting vulnerable community members with or without psychological challenges. The project aims to address limitations related to accessibility and finances, encouraging participation through group meetings, active sports visits, and personalized coaching. By tackling these obstacles and empowering individuals to join various sports activities like tennis, fitness, and Zumba, the project promotes inclusivity and well-being. The initiative utilizes advertorials, websites, and community outreach to inform and engage participants, with first results showing positive outcomes and high client satisfaction.
