When their son expressed a desire for a supportive environment to practice fitness and make friends, Ricki and Christopher Gullion realized they didn’t have many options in the area besides little league sports. Driven by a passion for personal growth, friendship, and fun, they set out to create KidFit—a place where children could engage in playful and healthy activities that foster confidence, fitness, and well-being. Today, KidFit stands as a testament to their vision, providing a welcoming community where every child can grow, learn, and discover their potential.

Our Core Pillars at kidfit

At KidFit, we believe that goal setting, friendship, and fun are the essential pillars that support a child’s development and well-being. Each of these elements plays a crucial role in shaping not only active, healthy kids but also well-rounded individuals.

ACHIEVING GOALS

Personal growth is all about helping children develop their unique strengths and abilities so they can thrive and foster these three traits.

  • Achieving personal goals boosts self-esteem and helps children believe in their abilities and enhance their overall performance.

  • Learning to overcome challenges teaches kids that setbacks are part of the journey, instilling a growth mindset that encourages persistence.

  • As children navigate their own paths, they develop decision-making skills and a sense of ownership and control over their progress.

Making Friends

We encourage friendships and social development by creating a supportive environment that engages these aspects.

  • Through fun interactions and group activities, kids learn essential skills like communication, cooperation, and empathy.

  • Kids learn the importance of supporting each other, helping them feel more connected and understood as they face new challenges.

  • Although not a traditional sports team, kids learn collaboration and the value of working together toward their goals.

Having Fun

Fun is an essential part of what we do. We believe that fitness should be fun because this leads to real benefits that last a lifetime.

  • When children have fun, they are more likely to stay active and motivated, developing a lifelong love for fitness.

  • Fun activities stimulate imagination and creativity, encouraging kids to think outside the box and explore new ideas.

  • Play and laughter are essential for reducing stress and enhancing emotional health, allowing kids to express themselves joyfully.
