Functional Movement ( Kids 8-15 yrs)
It’s never too soon to encourage a love of physical activity in kids by exposing them to fun fitness activities and sports. Children in different activities develops motor skills and muscles and reduces the risk of developing overuse injuries. Recommendations for children are to get at least one hour of exercises every day. This may seem like a lot, but it’s easy to see how the minutes can add up when you consider all of the running and playing an active child does on a daily basis.
The Functional Movement classes are age appropriate and designed to help children develop the 6 fundamentals of fitness: flexibility, agility, balance, co-ordination, strength and endurance.
Our Kids classes introduce your young child to regular, structured, fun-filled exercise which establishes a love of being active that will last a lifetime. Functional Movement class help to develop your child’s love for skilled activity by disguising exercise via improvisation and play using our equipment.
Activities include:
Gymnastic animal-walks & stretches which enhances flexibility and helps improve balance, posture and mental wellbeing

Games and activities using fitballs, TRX, ladders and a variety of props designed to develop fine motor skills and co-ordination
