Claim Your Child's Free ClassBefore you come
Three things make the first visit easy.
- Comfortable workout clothesA t-shirt and shorts or leggings are perfect. We'll get your child set up when you arrive.
- Sandals or slip-on shoesKids train barefoot on the mat, so easy on-and-off shoes for the walk in and out.
- A water bottleKids work hard and get thirsty. Bring one with their name on it.
Arrive about 10 minutes early. That gives us time to get your child set up, answer any questions you have, and show you both around before class starts. We're at 12592 Pines Blvd #103, Pembroke Pines.
What happens in class
Every class follows the same simple shape, so kids know what to expect.
- Check-in and a quick tourA coach meets you at the door, gets your child set up, and shows you where parents sit.
- Warm-up gamesKids start with running, animal movements and partner games. Shy kids relax fast here, because it feels like play.
- Technique of the dayThe coach shows one move step by step. Kids practice it with a partner their own size while coaches walk the room and help.
- Controlled practiceKids try the move against a partner who's moving. They learn control first, and anyone can tap to stop at any time.
- Bow out and high-fivesClass ends with a line-up and a bow. Then we'll check in with you about how it went and which class fits best.
Classes run about 45 minutes and kids train with their own age group. You're welcome to watch the whole time.
After class
There's no pressure to decide anything on the first day. If your child loved it, we'll walk you through the class schedule and membership options. Memberships are month-to-month with no long-term contract required and no registration fee, and family discounts are available.
If you have questions before you book, leave your name and number on the kids page and a coach will text you back.
