Can You Use Your NDIS Plan for Personal Training?

Personal training can be a really useful way to put your NDIS plan into action.

For some people, it is about building strength, fitness and mobility. For others, it is about confidence, routine, social connection, or feeling more comfortable in a gym or community space.

At Care in Movement, we use personal training and movement-based support as a practical way to work towards real goals. The session might look like exercise on the outside, but the bigger picture is often independence, confidence and getting more out of the week.

Improved Health & Wellbeing

This is the Capacity Building support area often used for things like personal training, exercise programs and support that helps improve physical wellbeing over time.

Our team includes qualified personal trainers who also understand disability support. That means sessions can be shaped around the person, not just the workout.

This might include building strength, improving mobility, getting confident in a gym, creating a routine, or learning how to move safely in a way that feels achievable.

Sessions can happen at home, outdoors in the fresh air and sun, or in a local gym, depending on what suits the person best.

Community access and movement

Some support is less about structured exercise and more about getting out into the community with the right backup.

This might look like going for a walk, playing sport, getting familiar with a local gym, attending appointments, shopping, trying a new activity, or building social confidence.

Many people use a mix of both. For example, a personal training session one day, then a community access shift later in the week. Different types of support, but both helping move towards the same goals.

A note about plan management

Care in Movement is not currently a registered NDIS provider.

That means we can work with participants who are self-managed or plan-managed. If your plan is NDIA-managed, you generally need to use a registered provider.

If you are not sure how your plan is managed, your support coordinator, nominee, family member, or NDIS contact can help you check.
