Bio
Dan Kirk had a decade long state football career before acquiring a life altering ankle injury. What followed was six operations that was filled with setbacks and struggles across all areas of his life.
Dan, along with his friend and co-founder Ben Haren went on to launch their new business, The Adaptability Movement in 2021 after 2 decades working and competing in high performance sport. Together with their team, Dan and Ben now help teams and organisations become more adaptable through the practical experience and workshops that help clubs and their members to build a culture that prioritises well-being and connection which in turn leads to better performances.
