Our principal service is a one-year program of physical activity and nutrition education for children ages 6-18 years old. These children are in the 85th–95th percentile (at the risk of overweight) and the 95th+ (overweight) in terms of BMI (Body Mass Index).

What makes us unique?

We work in the child's home environment and with the family. Our Support Team consists of a fitness trainer and nutritionist personally assigned to the child. We will develop a physical activity plan and nutritional plan, especially for the child, including their personal interest and cultural preferences. The Support Team will work one-on-one with the family to achieve the child's goals and report progress on a periodic basis throughout the program. We have various group and family activities and workshops planned throughout the year as well as various incentives for achievement of major milestones and goals.

Other supportive services include workshops and consulting activities related to developing a healthier lifestyle by improving physical activities and nutrition education. We will conduct workshops or consulting services for various organizations, youth groups, families, or to the general public. Our workshops and
consulting services include:

• Basic nutrition education (food pyramid, portion control, sugar and fat content, calorie counting, label reading, etc.)
  
• Fun ways to include physical activity into everyday life without the need for expensive gym equipment as well as activities
  families can do together
• Cooking demos to educate the family and child on basic cooking skills, new healthier recipes, and proper hygiene and
  storage
• Grocery shopping field trips to comparison shop on nutrition and costs
