Physical activity is important to our children’s robustness and well-being. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), “The percentage of children with obesity in the United States has more than tripled since the 1970s. Today, about one in five school-aged children (ages 6 to 19) has obesity.”Studies show that physical activity not only helps kids stay active and healthy, but it can enhance important skills like concentration and problem solving, which can improve academic performance.

​

The earlier a child starts getting in shape, the more he or she will reduce the risk of numerous illnesses. Encouraging children to be active is essential for proper growth and development. Our youth programs are designed to reap the benefits of physical activity while maintaining a fun, easy-to-follow regimen . Parenting can be a handful. Let's take them off your hands a little.
