Finding Momentum Inspiring kids to DREAM BIG through movement
Written by Katie Terra Owner & Operator of Momentum
At Momentum Sports and Play, our mission is
to build confidence, encourage self-esteem and inspire children to dream big! We believe in “bodies and minds in motion”, and strive to not only create relationships with our students, but to foster their physical and cognitive development through fun and challenging programs. We developed our non competitive gymnastics and Ninja programs to be child- centered rather than skill centered, and we get to know our students as individuals in order to help them achieve their goals. It’s no secret that physical activity is beneficial for all ages, but at Momentum, we want to help build those habits early on. Studies show that kids who participate in higher levels of physical activity have less risk of developing adverse health conditions and tend to perform better cognitively than their peers who are not as physically active. Our kids have a blast racing through obstacle courses in our Ninja classes, learning new vaults and tumbling skills in our gymnastics program, and playing games with new and old friends in our homeschool PE classes. Many times, they are surprised to find that they are out of breath and sweating at the end of class because they are so focused on the fun!
