Physical Well Being
Someone cannot be productive, tap in to their full cognitive abilities or be motivated when their body is falling apart. Healthy habits like physical active need to be modeled as not just being for atheletes or people of major races. We work with our mentees to model and build these habits through yoga, martial arts and workshops from personal trainers.




The Power of Physical Activity: Elevating Youth's Academic Performance, Emotion Regulation, and Mental Health
We firmly believe that physical activity isn't just about fitness; it's a vital key to unlocking the full potential of our youth. Regular physical activity has a profound impact on academic performance, emotion regulation, and mental health.
​
A Balanced Equation: Physical Activity and Academic Excellence
​
Engaging in regular physical activity isn't just beneficial for the body; it's a catalyst for cognitive growth and academic success. Studies have shown that youth who participate in physical activities experience improved concentration, enhanced memory retention, and heightened cognitive function. When the body moves, the mind follows suit, resulting in better problem-solving skills, creative thinking, and overall academic achievement. By integrating physical activity into their routines, youth gain a competitive edge in the classroom and beyond.
​
Emotion Regulation: Finding Balance through Movement
The teenage years are a time of immense emotional growth and self-discovery. Physical activity serves as a powerful tool for youth to navigate these emotional waters with grace and resilience. Engaging in movement releases endorphins, commonly known as "feel-good" hormones, which play a pivotal role in regulating emotions and reducing stress. Our carefully designed physical activity programs provide a healthy outlet for managing frustration, anxiety, and other challenging emotions. Through movement, youth develop coping strategies, build emotional resilience, and learn to channel their energy in positive ways.
​
Elevating Mental Health: The Mind-Body Connection
The mind and body are intrinsically connected, and nurturing one benefits the other. Physical activity has been proven to have a profound impact on mental health, especially among youth. By engaging in regular exercise, individuals experience reduced symptoms of depression, anxiety, and other mental health challenges. Physical activity stimulates the brain's production of neurotransmitters that promote relaxation and a sense of well-being. Our programs provide a supportive environment for youth to embrace physical activity as a tool for managing their mental health, fostering a sense of empowerment and control over their well-being.
