About Us
The Adaptability Movement was created to help equip people with the tools to adapt to challenges and create opportunity from change. Our programs lead to a greater sense of well-being, performance and purpose.
Our Adaptability facilitators have accumulated both lived experience and academic study to develop and deliver programs that will assist your business, club or school to enhance the well-being and performance of the people within their workplace/team/community. We draw on experiences from careers as both athletes and coaches in high performance sport and well-being to offer programs that assist people to feel good and perform well independently or in a team/community.
Our Team
Ben Haren
Organisational & Life Strategist / Co-Founder
Ben is someone who has always loved getting the best out of himself and others in all areas of life but particularly sport. Ben was drafted to the Sydney Swans in 2010, but was delisted just a year later. For a long time Ben blamed injury for the reason as to why his AFL dream ended, but it wasn’t until he had matured and had developed greater self-awareness that he realised it was much more than that.
Ben now has a passion for helping others to be all they can be and to exceed what they thought possible, utilising adaptable tools to create more opportunities. Having played and worked in elite sport for more than 12 years, Ben now uses these experiences in his work to guide others on their own well-being and performance journey.
Daniel Kirk
Organisational & Life Strategist / Co-Founder
Dan is a family man that cares deeply about connection with others. Dan's life is a storied one in which he had a successful decade long state football career across two states before acquiring a life altering ankle injury in 2012.
What followed was 6 operations over a two year period that was filled with setbacks and struggles across all areas of his life. Throughout this experience Dan built upon his persevering nature to adapt and create new opportunities including a Para-athletic career as a Discus thrower, making two Australian teams, along with devoting himself to sharing the message of Adaptability and the way it can positively influence our experience of life. Dan is committed to assisting others in utilising Adaptability to optimise their own well-being and performance.
