Kids Programs
We have various programs and services to encourage your children to be active and have fun at the same time!
Youth Sports Performance Training
Don't miss out on the last summer session of Level Up, our youth sports camp on August 6 - 8. Kids will challenge and improve their fitness with tools including the Blazepods, AssaultRunner Elite, Vertimax, and more! These camps are under the direction of Erika Setzler, MS, ACSM-CPT, human performance program manager.
The Blazepod training system is an interactive fitness tool that uses light-based pods to enhance physical and cognitive performance through engaging exercises. It is designed to improve reaction time, agility, speed, and mental acuity.
The AssaultRunner Elite is a premium non-motorized treadmill designed to mimic outdoor running with a curved deck that promotes a natural running stride. It is used for high-intensity interval training (HIIT), endurance workouts, and improving overall running form, suitable for athletes and fitness enthusiasts aiming to enhance their performance and conditioning.
The VertiMax is an advanced resistance training system that uses adjustable bands to provide consistent resistance for functional and sports-specific exercises. It is used to enhance athletic performance by improving speed, explosive power, and overall strength, making it ideal for athletes across various sports disciplines.
