Tots Program (ages 1 1/2 - 2 1/2 years)

Amazing Tots is a guided, discovery-based program helping children ages 18 months to 2 1/2 years engage in structured physical activities tailored specifically to toddlers. During each weekly class, toddlers learn about one of four sports through our discovery lessons. Classes also balance a combination of structured physical challenges and organized physical exploration activities specifically designed with little ones in mind. Important reading and developmental properties also are incorporated into physical activities combining fitness, learning and fun all in one!  Amazing Tots gain physical and academic advantages that prepare them to excel in preschool and beyond. Following the love of healthy lifestyle instilled in this program, our toddlers gain skills and tools that can last a lifetime.

Preschool Program (ages 2 1/2 - 6 years) 

This action-packed curriculum shows kids just how much fun fitness can be! During weekly classes, children learn the importance of patience, teamwork, and self-confidence in a non-competitive, learning-based environment that fosters a love of healthy living. Their excitement for structured physical activity promotes advancements and advantages that keep children on the path to personal well-being. Non-competitive group classes let children build confidence in a safe and fun environment while also building teamwork and good sportsmanship all while we encourage kids to explore and develop a variety of athletic skills through the introduction of 10 different sports. To keep healthy and active, our bodies need the right kind of fuel. The Amazing Athletes nutrition program introduces the children to 16 different fruits and vegetables as well as important vitamins and minerals so that they go home excited about trying new, healthy foods.

About Amazing Athletes

Amazing Athletes uses sports as a catalyst to meet the needs of the whole child through non-competitive, sports-based fitness classes designed to advance each child’s individual motor-skills and inspire future participation in physical activity.

Why Is Physical Activity Important?

Everyone knows that participation in physical activity keeps the body healthy, but few understand that participation in physical activity is actually a critical piece of healthy physical, emotional, intellectual, social and individual human development. Consistent participation in physical activity, especially when starting from a young age, leads to positive attributes in all 5 areas of development listed above.

Amazing Athletes programs are specifically structured and designed to provide participants with positive movement experiences that allow them to enjoy sports and fitness while also advancing their motor-skills so that they can confidently pursue any physical activity that interests them in the future.
