Schools K-8

We at Movement Madness are here for the development of the whole child. In our elementary-age after-school classes, we provide your child the much-needed 60 minutes of vigorous exercise, as well as:

• help develop and improve sports skills,

• build their self confidence by providing constant praise and a positive social environment where they feel good about themselves,

• build friendships, and

• learn to be a team player. 

Class begins with a few minutes of free play to get moving and then moves right into a 15-20 minute cardio game to get heart rates up.  Next, we move into a specific skill relay or drill where we are learning/practicing a specific sport or fitness skill.  We end class with a fun game or relay where all kids are moving, working as a team or individually, practicing skills we have learned, and most importantly, having fun while exercising. 

Throughout the class the instructors are throwing sport, health and diet trivia questions in the mix. Kids with the correct answer get to do a victory lap while others cheer them on.  Facts on health and fitness are told to the kids at the beginning and end of class to inform them of the importance of staying healthy and fit.

Remember, like adults, kids need to get exercise...they need to put down the electronics, turn off the TV and get their bodies moving for a minimum of 60 minutes a day!  Movement of the body helps kids physically as well as helping their emotional, cognitive and social development.  We all know the phrase 'a healthy body equals a healthy mind.’
