"Our collaboration with SixS Sports bridges the academic rigour of physiotherapy education with the demands of modern athletic performance. This is not just about internships, it’s about creating next-generation physios who understand sport from the inside out.” - Principal, Sanjay Gandhi College of Physiotherapy.
SixS Sports is proud to announce its academic and clinical partnership with Sanjay Gandhi College of Physiotherapy, one of Karnataka’s leading institutions for physiotherapy education. This collaboration marks a powerful convergence of sports performance science and clinical education, ensuring that India’s future physiotherapists are not only academically trained, but also deeply embedded in the demands of real-world, high-performance sport.
Through this partnership, students from Sanjay Gandhi College of Physiotherapy will gain immersive exposure to SixS’s performance ecosystem, including athlete screening, injury prevention, strength & conditioning protocols, and cognitive recovery methods. The collaboration includes structured clinical rotations, field-based internships, and participation in athlete case studies at SixS partner schools, universities, and high-performance centres.
In return, SixS athletes will benefit from continuous, research-backed physiotherapy support, from musculoskeletal screenings to on-field rehabilitation, delivered by trained professionals mentored by the college’s senior faculty. This ensures a higher standard of care across all SixS training environments, while also creating a feedback loop between clinical practice and sports science innovation.
The partnership aims to jointly develop India’s first applied curriculum that blends physiotherapy with performance analytics, brain training, and long-term athletic health planning. Students will not only learn manual therapy and diagnostic techniques, but also biomechanics, neuromuscular testing, and athlete monitoring systems, positioning them as essential contributors to the performance ecosystem.
Together, Sanjay Gandhi College of Physiotherapy and SixS Sports are raising the bar for healthcare in sport. This is not just a collaboration for academic credit, it is a national model for how physiotherapy education can be transformed through live exposure, interdisciplinary mentorship, and a shared mission to keep athletes strong, safe, and at their peak.
This partnership reflects a bold belief: that the best physiotherapists are not only healers, but builders of performance, resilience, and long-term sporting excellence.
