Look out, world! 💪 The students of the 25/26 year are ready to go.🧡 In the face of uncertainty, kids today need places to learn how to work as a team, be mindful, how to lose, and of course, how to win.

“Exercise should be a core part of mental health care,” says Prof. Carol Maher. “Short, structured programs that include strength training or a mix of activities seem especially promising, but simply exercising, even for short amounts of time, will deliver benefits." ⬇️.

Are students bored? Shake things up! Play upbeat music and incorporate weighted objects like #battleropes for a engaging warm-up. Holding the same object also promotes teamwork + awareness. Do you have a go-to #warmuphack ?. #fitkidsfoundation #nonprofit #warmup #kidsfitness

Want your kids to lock in and stay focused? 🚀. We’ve seen firsthand how regular exercise helps kids drown out distractions and truly stay focused on learning and growing. Exercise is crucial for kids to develop concentration skills and filtering out distractions.

Your students don't want to participate. Your kids say it's boring. But then a friend shows up. Workout with a buddy is way more effective if you can do something with another person. We love movement that involves teamwork, communication, and a little friendly competition.

🧡Movement and increasing heart rate have been shown to improve mental health just as effectively as certain medications, as it increases blood flow and gives the body endorphins. (Thanks Elle Woods!) . Has movement helped your mood?.
