Childhood obesity is on the rise with an increasing number of California’s children at risk for developing diabetes thru a lifetime ofinactivity eventually leading to earlier death. The number one way to offset this statistic is to increase the levels of fitness and health in our children.
Our FitKids First program was developed with the idea ofsupporting our hands-onteachers and educators to engage their students in the mandated physical education requirement (2-50 minutesessions a week) seamlessly and effortlessly by following a pre-determined workout schedule based on the state standards for physical education.
FitKids First is designed to reach out to children of all ethnic backgrounds and social classes. Our kits are age specific and broken down by K-3 and 4-6.
FitKids First is based on the belief that without our children having the basics of health and physical fitness, education becomes secondary.
Our kits are designed to meet or exceed the State of California Physical Fitness Requirements. We recommend utilizing 5-10 kits per school depending on student body size. We are here to help your set up and encourage a 4 hour training session for your teachers. This training includes program roll-out strategies, teaching the basics of the workouts and how to monitor skill levels and form while getting teaching staff moving themselves in a hands-on demonstration. Teaching a comfort level with the materials is the surest way to have teacher enthusiasm and support.
Research shows that kids who engage in exercise are better students and healthier in all aspects of their social skills.Children’s bodies were designed to move!
