2024 EVENTS

Throughout the year, we host several events to support our mission. However, our BIGGEST event is the 5K Stroller Roll held on the 2nd Saturday in July. We raise money to provide needs-based scholarships to children whose families need financial support for things such as football camps, cheer camps, soccer uniforms, basketball camp and others.

Health Classes

A “healthy lifestyle” does not just mean a balanced diet. The importance of regular physical activity, sleep routines, and working on mental health are all vital.

There are plenty of benefits of physical activity exercises for youth. Aside from cardiovascular health and healthy weight, exercise for children helps strengthen their bones, joints, and muscles. According to WHO, physical activity promotes the development of social skills among youth (self-confidence, social interaction, integration). It can also help with feelings of anxiety and depression.

Not only is exercise for children’s growth and development important, but it’s an excellent way to form a strong family bond and strengthen the connections between children and their families.

It Starts With Me 2 offers group fitness classes to youth by providing fun structured fitness programs that involves music and movement. We travel to schools, summer camps, and different clubs/organizations throughout the metro-Atlanta area. Our programs combine warm-ups, fitness moves, games, and yoga/mindfulness practice that make fitness fun for kids of all ages. We also discuss nutrition and healthy eating.
