What is CrossFit Kids?

"CrossFit Kids means fun. It's about getting stronger so I can be better at things. It helps me be better at kenpo, like staying in a horse stance longer. And when I get older, like you, I'll be able to do more things."
What do your kids think CrossFit Kids means?

Our basketball team of 18 girls crossfits three days a week. They are fit from the inside out. Parents, opposing coaches and spectators are commenting about how powerful, fast, and happy they look on the court. They've rocked every house they've been in..undefeated and humble! Because we box jump, we own the boards!
My kids think CrossfitKids= burpees.

Jeff & Mikki,
CrossFit kids is AWESOME! Thanks for bringing this program to the community.
we just started our kids program at xfit boston a few weeks ago - its going great so far! thanks jeff & mikki for leading the way.
and yes, kids do love burpees!
What a great program; congrats to all of the affiliates hopping on the train!
My 7yo daughter is always asking me "what's the puppy workout today?" She loves it (except when it calls for burpees-she takes after her old man :-) ). I know for a fact that doing the workouts has increased her strength, and more importantly, she has a blast doing them! I'll be sure to ask her tonight what CrossFit Kids means to her.
Jeff & Mikki,
I'd like to add my thanks for the work you're doing with this program!
Very cool programs. Thanks Jeff & Mikki for all your work on this. I can't wait to implement a kids program here in the near future!
My 8 yr old daughter has been in Sue Ady’s program since the beginning. Tho she loves the weekly class, she really enjoys how it has improved her performance in all the other physical activities like swimming, skiing, and soccer. It’s a great program that gives kids a fun way to build a strong foundation. Keep it coming!
Mikki & Jeff,
CrossFit Kids is changing lives everywhere. I am so happy my kids are able to be part of this unbelievable experience. When they are old, like me, they are going to be enjoying life to the fullest because of what you are teaching them now. THANK YOU!
Kids class is a blast! It's so exciting to watch their progress... and it happens quickly. To see wobbly bodies become controlled, to pick out bad form when they see it, and most of all have fun while learning great habits. And they actually like it when you surprise them with burpees at the end of a class:)
Thanks Mikki and Jeff for the journal and educating us all on how to gear this great stuff for kids!
