Healthy Moves

Our programs improve the health of kids

Healthy Moves helps kids improve their physical and intellectual health through three programs created for schools.

1. Trainer-in-Residence

This brings movement, fitness and fun to elementary students through a seven-week trainer-in-residence program. Due to school budget cuts in the area, many physical education programs have been eliminated, which leaves classroom teachers, many of whom have no specialized PE training, to lead PE classes.
