KidStrong is a science-based kids training program that builds strong, confident and high-character kids.

KidStrong is Athletic Play—a new kind of activity for kids ages 1-11 that builds confidence, character and family connection through science-based fitness games led by expert coaches. Our program is designed with the whole child in mind, focusing on three key pillars: Character, Physical and Cognitive development. We teach kids to believe in themselves, show parents their kid’s superpowers and help families grow together in moments of celebration and showing off.

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! 👏

Teamwork is so much more than “playing nice.”

At KidStrong we use team-based challenges to develop critical skills like problem solving, communication and empathy. Kids who learn to work together are learning how to live a happy, socially connected life. 🙌 🙌

Here’s what research shows teamwork helps develop in kids:

🧠 Executive function: Competitions like the shuttle run team obstacle courses require attention, planning and problem-solving—all of which are tied to academic success, too.*

🗣 Communication: Kids practice taking turns, talking through ideas and listening, which can boost interpersonal confidence.**

🤝 Emotional regulation & empathy: Teamwork isn’t always easy. But managing frustration, reading social cues and supporting others are how kids learn emotional resilience.***

At KidStrong we’re making developmental skills training FUN!

Join us in celebrating this milestone with all our KidStrong kids—the leaders, listeners and problem-solvers of tomorrow! 🎉 🥳

Balance may look like a beam and a few careful steps—but it is SO much more.

🌟 This week at KidStrong, we’re proud to see so many kids conquering balance challenges and building skills for life along the way!🌟

While practicing balance, kids are also building:

⚖️ Focus: Staying steady starts with concentration.
⚖️ Core strength: Balance challenges activate key muscles that support stability and power for every move we make.
⚖️ Cognitive awareness: Balance stimulates the vestibular system (inner ear), which connects to brain areas in charge of learning and attention.
⚖️ Motor skills: Balance refines gross motor skills and fine motor skills alike, helping kids get the grounding they need for precise movements.
⚖️ A healthy future: Walking, running, good posture, even carrying backpacks and reaching for items on high shelves require balance and stability.

It isn’t all fun and games—even though a lot of it is! By practicing balance, kids learn how to move through the world with confidence, so they’re ready to face any challenge life throws their way. 💪

Teamwork isn’t JUST about working with others— it’s about learning to listen, encourage each other and to trust your teammates.

🏁 This week we’re celebrating our KidStrong kids who are learning about teamwork through activities like the shuttle run! 🏁

They’ll learn about:
🧠 Communication and how to encourage one another.
💪 Speed, agility, and endurance.
❤️ A deeper understanding of collaboration.

These skills go far beyond the center. They help kids become better friends, more supportive classmates and compassionate future leaders.

At KidStrong, we’re teaching kids how to lift each other up and succeed—and that’s what real strength looks like.

06/30/2025

It’s Showcase Week! This is when kids show the world just how far they’ve come in the last 10 weeks.

After weeks of building strength, confidence, and character, they’re stepping up to demonstrate their hard-earned skills in:
✔ Parkour. Speed, agility, balance—kids are mastering movement and having FUN while doing it!
✔ Rope Climbs. Strength, strategy and resilience come together as kids rise (literally!) to new heights.
✔ Emotional Literacy. From managing nerves to cheering on teammates, they’re connecting, communicating, and learning about themselves.

Showcase week isn’t about showing off—it’s about celebrating progress, effort and the courage to try hard things. 💪🧠❤️

What we're building at KidStrong goes beyond physical skills–it’s a foundation for life-long confidence, resilience and determination.

So let’s celebrate every climb, jump, smile and “I CAN DO THIS” moment!

06/23/2025

It's Rope Climb Milestone Week at KidStrong—where determination meets achievement and our climbers reach new heights (literally)!

This week, our students take everything they’ve been learning—grip strength, ab strength, problem-solving, emotional resilience—and put it into action.

What makes this milestone special isn't just reaching the top—it's the journey of growth along the way:
🏆 The confidence boost when they climb higher than last time
🏆 The moment of breakthrough when technique clicks and they find their rhythm
🏆 The community of support as their KidStrong crew cheers each other toward success

They’ve worked hard, built strength from the ground up, and now it’s time to celebrate every reach, pull and moment of growth.

Tag in your celebration photos!

Remember being told to "stand up straight"? There's wisdom there! Strong abdominal muscles don't just create good posture—they build the foundation for confidence, independence, and lifelong physical wellbeing.

That's why Rope Climbs are on the KidStrong 30 list of essential skills:
💪 Building fundamental strength patterns – Rope climbing activates the posterior chain muscles essential for healthy movement patterns, injury prevention and athletic development in ALL sports.

🧠 Developing determination – When children conquer a rope climb, they experience the powerful connection between perseverance and achievement that transfers to academic and life challenges.

🌟 Creating physical confidence – Kids who can pull their own body weight develop a special kind of self-assurance that comes from knowing their body is capable and strong.

Parents: The pulling strength your child develops today prevents the hunched-over "tech neck" posture of tomorrow! You're investing in both immediate physical literacy AND long-term musculoskeletal health.

Whether they're climbing trees, carrying backpacks, or simply standing tall with confidence, this functional strength carries forward into everything they do!

06/09/2025

At , every activity is designed with purpose—and the rope climb is no exception. 🧗‍♂️🪢

It’s about more than just physical strength (though we build that, too!). Rope climbs teach real-life skills that kids carry beyond the KidStrong class, including:

✔ Coordination and balance. Rope climbs are a full-body challenge that builds gross and fine motor skills.
✔ Problem-solving. Climbing isn’t just about strong arms and shoulders. It’s about planning your next move, adjusting your grip and making decisions on the go.
✔ Emotional resilience. Rope climbs can be tough. But every “I can’t” that becomes an “I did it!” boosts confidence, courage and self-belief.

Whether it's reaching the top or learning through the attempt, every climb helps kids grow stronger in body and mind. 🧠❤️💪

06/02/2025

At , we don't just help kids get physically strong—we help them find their voice. 🗣️💪 Our public speaking activities build emotional intelligence that lasts a lifetime.

Public speaking at KidStrong isn’t about perfection—it’s about courage and confidence. If they can get reps now, they’ll be ready for any stage they get on later in life.

Here’s what we focus on:
🌟Confidence under pressure. Speaking in front of others helps kids learn to manage nerves and turn fear into strength.

🌟 Self-awareness and clarity. When kids put their thoughts into words, they begin to understand themselves better.

🌟 Empathy and connection. Sharing stories builds bonds. Listening and being heard are keys to emotional literacy.

Finding your voice is powerful! That’s why we help kids find theirs.

05/26/2025

Don’t think your breathing matters? What if we told you controlled breathing exercises help kids:

🧘 Promote a sense of calm by lowering heart rate and blood pressure?
😮‍💨 Enhance the performance of the prefrontal cortex—the part of the brain involved in decision-making?
🧠 Increase oxygen to the brain, improving focus, memory, and the ability to cope with difficult emotions?
💆 Reduce muscle tension, headaches, and other physical symptoms of stress?

Simple breathing techniques can calm down your kid’s mind and body. That’s why alongside movement and social skills, we also each kids how to regulate their feelings through the simple, repeatable process of controlled breathing.

So, let’s all take a few deep breaths, shall we?

At , we know physical strength is just one piece of the puzzle. 🧩 Emotional intelligence builds the foundation for lifelong success!

That’s why this week we’re diving into emotional literacy skills that research shows boost academic performance, social connections and mental wellbeing. 📖 🫂 🧠

These essential skills include:
✔ Managing emotions. We're teaching practical tools to identify feelings, navigate big emotions and develop healthy coping strategies that work at home and at school.

✔ Communication. Beyond just naming feelings, we're helping kids communicate their needs clearly and confidently—a superpower for building meaningful relationships.

✔ Problem-solving. When kids understand the "why" behind their feelings, they become solution-finders rather than problem-dwellers.

The emotional skills your child develops at today become tomorrow's resilience, leadership abilities and conflict resolution expertise. You're investing in both immediate happiness AND long-term success!
And that FEELS GOOD!

Parkour isn’t just about strength and movement. It’s about building courage and confidence, assessing risks, and feeling pride in every obstacle you overcome.

🏆 This week we’re celebrating all the KidStrong kids who practiced parkour with us.🏆 Along the way they achieved:

🧠 Real-world problem-solving skills
⚖️ Better coordination and balance
🌟 Confidence that transfers to all areas of life

Parents: These skills support a lifetime of academic success, emotional regulations and healthy risk-taking. Pat yourselves on the back for laying the foundation for resilient, capable kids who approach life’s obstacles with confidence.
