Bravery is one of the most important skills a kid can build—it helps them tackle difficult things head on, try new things and grow mentally stronger with each challenge.

At KidStrong, we help kids practice bravery in a safe environment so they can discover the confidence that is on the other side of fear. 🙌

Bravery starts small—but creates big changes like:

➡️ Resilience
➡️ Self Confidence
➡️ Perseverance
➡️ Focus and determination

Let’s get braver—together! Because little challenges create the kind of courage we need to WIN AT LIFE!

⭐ Problem-Solving Skills: Analyzing, brainstorming solutions and critical thinking
are life skills that translate to the classroom, workplace and beyond.
⭐ Anatomy: Understanding different muscle groups and what they’re used for to build the brain and the body!
⭐ Athleticism: Building coordination, strength and mental and emotional wellbeing—setting kids up for a lifetime of good health.

We’ve got a lot to celebrate this week at KidStrong!

This is the moment our kids get to show what they’ve been working on—and it’s about WAY more than just movement. We’ve watched these kids learn about growth, grit, and the courage to rise to the occasion.

They’ve learned:

🤝 Teamwork—We’re talking collaboration, encouraging one another, and solving challenges together.

🤸 Gymnastic Skills—From coordination to balance, they’re ready to take center stage with powerful, practiced movement.

🎤 Public Speaking—These kids are using their own voices with confidence learned in the gym and through practice with their peers.

We’re celebrating every kid’s progress and the strength, courage, and resilience they’ve picked up along the way.

Parents—get ready to be amazed! 🤩

09/01/2025

Public speaking isn’t just something we TALK about at KidStrong—it’s something we PRACTICE.

This week, we’re continuing to focus on Public Speaking and everything our KidStrong kids have achieved in practicing it. These kids are using their voices to show us what confidence in action looks like.

👋 From introducing themselves to the group …
👏 To cheering on their teammates, …
🦘 Building confidence through jumping, and …
🗣️ Explaining a strategy or movement out loud …

… these skills are the foundation of healthy confidence, social connection, and strong communication—all of which are required for happy lives.

Science tells us that public speaking helps kids boost their confidence and self-esteem, enhance critical thinking, build resilience, and even improve academic performance.*

Join us in celebrating these kids and their bright futures! 😎

This week we’re continuing to celebrate the power of the JUMP—a simple but essential movement that builds strength inside and out.

Jumping builds:

🏃 Body awareness and strength.
🧠 A strong mind-body connection.
🎯 Focus, coordination, and control.
🙂 Courage—to launch into the unknown and land strong.

Jumping is a moment of bravery. When KidStrong kids learn to go for it, trust their bodies, and try again when necessary, they’re developing resilience.

And that’s how kids learn to navigate life’s ups and downs! 🏋️

08/18/2025

At KidStrong we know confidence starts in the body. That’s why this week we’re celebrating the brain and body power of the broad jump.

We love this jump—a move that involves leaping as far as possible without a running start—because it supports:

🧠 Mind-body connection: Jumping and landing with control is essential for better spatial awareness, coordination, and timing. 🧠

🦘 Explosive power: The ability to produce max force matters because it improves athletic performance and even reduces the risk of injury.*🦘

💪 Core strength & stability: Every jump builds the muscles needed for good posture and balance. 💪

🤸Self-esteem & confidence: Making a jump boosts self-esteem, which makes them more willing to try new things and take on new challenges in the future. 🤸

When kids learn the broad jump, they’re building strength and balance—as well as the confidence and courage to move through the world with power and purpose.

It’s time to JUMP IN.

Push-ups are a powerhouse movement for total development!

This week at KidStrong, we’re continuing to focus on one of the most important and versatile bodyweight skills: THE PUSH-UP! 💥💥

Push-ups support whole-child development because they are:

✔️ A functional movement that supports joint alignment
✔️ A core, shoulder and postural strength builder—which supports kids inside and outside of the classroom
✔️ Able to support discipline, endurance and confidence. Push-ups aren’t about speed—they’re about form and doing it RIGHT.

Push-ups build resilience, coordination and control, making them a life skill in disguise.

07/28/2025

Push-ups aren’t just a strength exercise—they’re a developmental power move. 💪

This week at KidStrong, we’re celebrating our kids’ progress in gymnastics-based skills, especially the push-up—a foundational movement with BIG benefits:

💪 Full body strength—Push-ups are one of the most efficient ways to build total-body strength safely.

🧠 Mind-body connection—Proper form requires coordination between the brain and the body, stabilizing the spine, aligning the joints, and controlling the movement from start to finish.

💥 Confidence—Gymnastics skills help kids learn what their bodies can do, adjust their movements in real-time, and work through challenges to build confidence.

That’s what we love about push-ups at KidStrong. They don’t just help kids get physically stronger, they help them believe in their own ability to work hard and improve.

And THAT is something to celebrate. This week and EVERY week! 👏
