This is the first CrossFit Kids P.E. class to take place in the history of KIPPLA Schools. KIPPfit athletes not only learn about living a healthy and fit lifestyle, but they also gain confidence, practice teamwork, and develop grit as they overcome challenges and learn new skills through daily WODs. My athletes are the hardest working group of middle school athletes you will ever meet! They arrive to each KIPPfit P.E. class excited to learn new skills and movements. They push themselves and their fellow teammates on a daily basis through the warm-ups and workouts. Student athletes reflect on their workouts at the end of each period and create new goals for the next class meeting.

We are asking for a class set of resistance exercise bands from http://www.forgefitness.com/

Having a set of resistance in KIPPfit will allow my student athletes to practice many challenging workout movements. Some movements they can perform with the resistance bands is a partner running skill of resistance running where one athlete pulls back and adds resistance while the other in running forward. Even more exciting, we can start working on our pull-ups! If we loop a band around the pull-up bar they can use the band to help them achieve their first pull-ups by having their feet in the band while hanging from the bar. Eventually we can also you the resistance bands for assisted ring dips. Your donation will give my student athletes more motivation in KIPPfit and encourage them to be fit and healthy. By overcoming the challenges presented by the resistance bands movements their self-confidence will increase.
