About Kids Body Connection
Kids Body Connection Foundation is a nonprofit organization that offers programs for children ages K - 12. We believe that an in-person experience teaching children how to use the body as a tool to increase physical knowledge, improve cognitive focus and self-control at school is absolutely essential to creating an attitude open to learning and growth.
Mission
The mission of Kids Body Connection Foundation is to empower children to develop their physical, emotional, and academic intelligence.
Kids Body Connection Model
We believe in the development of the child as a whole. Kids Body Connection tools give the foundation for success in life. Our program strengthens the connection between the mind and body with physical movement that develops posture, flexibility, balance, and agility combined with breathing techniques to center the body to develop self-control.
The Kids Body Connection Model is a developmentally based philosophy of behavioral and physical learning that incorporates parents and/or facilitators in children’s academic performance.
Our goal is to improve student quality of life during early academic learning, by supporting physical health and a growth mindset open to learning while developing children into healthy, lifelong learners.
There is always room for improvement.
Kids Body Connection Foundation was created to support early education for kids to learn how to integrate their body and mind.
We are committed to implementing our guided, daily program to stimulate and to encourage young people to develop an optimal mindset for growth, strong athleticism, and longevity.
The Kids Body Connection 4-step program incorporates essential growth and development elements like, Posture, Flexibility, Balance, and Agility. The program is designed to center the body, improve self-awareness, mental clarity, and focus, increasing the youngster self confidence.
It teaches breathing techniques for mind-body synergy, exercises for body-conscious movement, and enhanced physical knowledge organically integrating into better academic skills at school.
Our Vision is to grow the Kid’s Body Connection Program to become part of the school system and curriculum, on K-12 both Private and Public schools. Private schools can be fundamentally successful in supporting our program. For a purchase of a one-year program, a percentage is used to fund another child at a neighborhood public school in need.
Together we can do better to prepare our youth to strengthen mental and physical health.
Our journey has already begun in our local community in La Jolla, California.
We need your help to expand! Come and join us.
