FF4K Program

t-pushup.jpgServing Elementary & Middle School Students

Functional Fitness 4 Kids, Inc. (FF4K) is a 501 (c) (3) nonprofit organization that has taken the lead throughout the Washington, D.C. area to provide children and adolescents with a free after-school program that promotes a healthy lifestyle, physical fitness and positive nutritional habits with enduring results. FF4K was created to combat the current youth obesity epidemic, address the need for quality after-school activities, and teach strategies & skills necessary to live a healthy lifestyle.

FF4K is funded through grants, sponsors, and donations. The program provides cutting edge fitness training, nutritional information, and healthy snacks in a fun and safe environment. FF4K workouts are designed to increase self- esteem, decrease body fat, increase strength and endurance, improve agility, balance & coordination, prevent sport related injuries, enhance kids cognitive ability and build a sense of team through partner and group exercises. Our workouts are self-paced, individually challenging and a lot of fun!

Students in the fourth through eighth grade will have the opportunity to participate in fitness activities (over the course of an hour) under the guidance and supervision of highly qualified fitness professionals; opposed to potentially being home alone for that duration of time. FF4K is a one-of-a-kind program and we look forward to implementing it in your school and community!

prov1.jpg.w300h206.jpgCurrently, our program is offered throughout Northern Virginia, Maryland and the Washington DC metropolitan area. As we continue to receive grant awards, we will expand (nationwide) to as many schools as we can support! Please let us know if you are interested in offering the program at your school.
