No fluff. No email required.
We don't do traditional fitness classes or chair-based exercise. We blend games, challenges, and real-world function into sessions that feel more like organized activity than a workout.
Movement Disguised as Play
Why We Are Different
Rehab-Informed Approach
Community Connection First
Proven & Flexible
Designed by Experts
Every session prioritizes balance, mobility, and fall prevention while still being engaging, purposeful, and appropriately challenging for active adults.
Sessions encourage interaction, laughter, and connection. You're not just working out - you're building relationships through movement.
Choose seasonal cohorts that match your goals, or have us bring structured programming directly to your community. We adapt to what works for you.

What Our Participants Say
The Humans Behind the Function
Hi, we're Phil and Michelle, the team behind FX Human.
Phil is a licensed occupational therapist who brings a rehab-informed approach to movement. Michelle is a certified life coach and meditation teacher who focuses on mindset and sustainable habits.
We've spent years helping people stay active and independent. Phil worked in healthcare settings, Michelle in coaching and wellness. What we noticed was a gap: active adults who wanted to keep moving but were tired of intimidating gyms and boring chair exercises.
So we created something different. Movement disguised as play. Sessions that feel more like organized activity than traditional fitness. Programming that prioritizes balance, mobility, and fall prevention while still being engaging and fun.
We're here to help Southwest Florida's active adult communities stay capable, sharp, and confident in everyday life through movement that actually feels enjoyable.
