This unique program provides an opportunity for children whose lives have been effected by cancer to improve: strength, coordination, mobility, balance, endurance and sensation.

We accomplish this by working with each child in a safe, clean and non-intimidating environment to provide fun and effective exercise and fitness coaching.

Participants receive up to 12-weeks of personalized exercise and fitness coaching which may include one-on-one attention or work in small groups.

Each exercise program is designed and supervised by an experienced Certified Fitness Professional.
