ABL-YF  Action Based Learning Youth Fitness 

Most schools, clubs, and youth programs know children need more movement.
What they don’t have is a safe, age-appropriate, research-supported way to deliver it — consistently, confidently, and with real educational value.

The KidsFit Accreditation was built to solve that problem.

Developed by leaders in youth movement, neuroscience-informed learning, and child wellness, this certification gives instructors, coaches, and program directors the tools to create movement experiences that improve health, support learning, and build lifelong habits. This is youth fitness designed for the real world — not adapted from adult training, and not filled with fluff.

A KidsFit-Accredited instructor can:

  • Design age-appropriate youth fitness programming tied to real educational benefits 
  • Create safer environments and prevent common youth fitness injuries
  • Help children understand why movement matters for learning and health 
  • Build daily movement habits that improve attention, behavior, and readiness to learn. 
  • Communicate the value of purposeful movement to families, schools, and communities. 

    When done well, youth fitness becomes much more than activity time. It becomes a path to better health, better learning, and better opportunities for every child.
