Such an amazing story about a young boy and his personal trainer Luke from Titan Training! Well done Luke - it's amazing what you're doing! 🙂Good news story :)
“Luke is a personal trainer he owns Titan training based in nz and the little boy in the photos is my son. He is severely autistic, he is nonverbal with global development delay and suffers from sensory issues but he LOVES sports and I have tried so hard to find something for him to pursue and after so many no's and some rude attitudes where I cried I came across Luke a qualified personal trainer. He said to me it’s okay we are all people. My child has gone from not wanting contact with people to having someone he can connect with and play sports with who makes him feel important”

Sam, a young man with Autism and a movement disorder was offered a job at Starbucks. Sam never thought he would be a barista, but told his parents that his life had meaning for the very first time. Chris, the Starbucks hiring manager, decided to give him a chance and taught Sam to turn movements into a dance. Sam quickly became known as the dancing barista and is highly popular!
Everyone deserves a chance, support, and encouragement. Do you agree?
