A Functional Fitness
Gym For All Abilities
Help every athlete achieve their highest potential, enhancing quality of life and happiness
AIM Therapy began with a vision to provide high-quality, individualized physical therapy and fitness services for individuals of all abilities. As our programs grew, so did our commitment to creating a truly inclusive community where every athlete — regardless of disability, communication style, or learning difference — could access fitness, connection, and empowerment.
To better align with this mission and to remove financial barriers for the families we serve, we transitioned to ABL Fitness Inc, a nonprofit organization. ABL stands for Aiming Beyond Limits — because we believe fitness is for everybody. Becoming a nonprofit allows us to expand access, secure grant funding, and offer programs at more affordable rates, ensuring no athlete is left out due to cost.

Breaking Barriers, Building Opportunities!
At ABL Fitness, we believe fitness should be for everyone—no exceptions! But for individuals with disabilities, finding the right environment can be tough. Here's where we step in:
Many individuals with disabilities need supervision, structure, and support to fully enjoy fitness — and we provide all that and more!
Typical gyms can feel overwhelming or unwelcoming. At ABL Fitness, every athlete is seen, supported, and celebrated.
There's a shortage of trained professionals ready to coach adaptive athletes, which is why our coaches specialize in inclusive, individualized training.
One-size-fits-all classes don't work. Our programs are tailored to every ability level — challenging when it should be, supportive when it needs to be.
Peer mentorship is a cornerstone of what we do, helping athletes build social connections and lifelong friendships.
Adaptive fitness typically costs 2-4 times more than regular gym memberships due to additional staffing and supports, creating an unfair "Disability Tax." Limited funding options (like DDS, MassHealth, and SSA) and strict income rules make it tough for individuals to afford these essential programs.
At ABL Fitness, we're committed to making fitness accessible, affordable, and available. We have the training to tackle the fitness obstacles but need your help to tackle the financial obstacles. Your partnership allows us to offer our services to individuals with disabilities for the same price as those without.
