Dear health minded parent,
It is NO SECRET that childhood obesity is on a DANGEROUS rise in our country and this has unfortunately led to greater numbers in disease, depression and decrease in fun healthy activities. In 2011, we live in a Fast Food society and our kids only exposure to physical fitness is the Wii Fit (seriously?), things need to change now. Our kids deserve to live a life of happiness, health and fitness.
The CrossFit Kids Program has been positively changing the fitness level, confidence and overall health of our youth for over 7 years now. Here at CrossFit South Shore we consider the opportunity to offer this fun filled program not only an honor but a HUGE responsibility.

In order to assist you in learning a little more about our program, here is a list of commonly asked questions from parents just like you. If you have any questions at all PLEASE CONTACT US at any time, we would LOVE to assist you anyway that we can.
- What is the CrossFit Kids program? CrossFit Kids is designed to teach kids functional movements for everyday life that are broad, general, and inclusive. Healthy living requires that our kids push, pull, run, throw, climb, lift and jump effectively to avoid childhood inactivity and obesity. CrossFit Kids uses scalability to make this program possible for every child by changing load and intensity. Studies show exercise and movement help children improve their musculoskeletal foundation and fitness as well as increase their cognitive ability and brain development.
