I noticed that two of the Strength Time franchise locations have clients with disabilities (Kenilworth and Highland Park). Since the fitness center is designed to be very low key, with few distractions, no music, calm atmosphere and a very patient one-on-one trainer, it is a potentially good fit for a some. Additionally, if people have coordination issues, the slow, careful movement drills can be easier to perform than the exercises typically seen at health club classes. Unfortunately, it's not cheap because it's 1:1 training. However, the two parents I spoke to (who have young adults with disabilities training at Kenilworth and Highland Park) felt it was worth the extra money. I personally vouch for the trainers I have met at the Kenilworth location. They are very welcoming, friendly and professional. I might look into this in the future for my teenage son to get him feeling successful about health and working out. The Kenilworth location has an elevator; not sure of it's complete accessibility since I'm not usually assessing that aspect of business.
