Crossfit for Physical Education
About Us
CrossFitness
Since late 2004, CrossFit Kids has been “Forging the Future of Fitness” and is currently in over 500 gyms in North America, Australia, Europe, Africa, India, Japan and Panama. CrossFit Kids is a strength-and-conditioning program that is specifically designed for children and teenagers and helps them develop a lifelong love of fitness. In a group setting, children and teens participate in fun and engaging workouts that deliver measurable results and prepare them to be well-rounded athletes. With a network of over 2500 CrossFit Kids Trainers, CrossFit Kids is being implemented in preschools to high schools with before-and-after school programs as well as being integrated into physical education curricula.
CrossFitness workouts consist of constantly varied, functional movements that deliver a fitness that is broad, inclusive and general and scalable for any participant at any level. This is why we have created Crossfitness, to incorporate Crossfit into traditional physical education classes.

What does this mean?
This means that, for the most part, no two workouts are the same, so kids and teens never get bored and the novelty of each workout keeps them excited about participating.
The functional movements involve exercises that are fundamental to all things that kids need to do when they play—pull, push, run, throw, climb, lift and jump. All of the movements are taught safely and effectively under the close supervision.
When fitness is defined as broad, inclusive and general, it means that participants will become well-rounded athletes who will be better at any and every sport that they play because CrossFitness doesn’t coach them to be good at just one thing.
Our workouts will increase physical competence in 10 fitness domains: cardiovascular and respiratory endurance, stamina, strength, flexibility, power, speed, coordination, agility, balance and accuracy.
