B Fit Kids is a global journey of international dance-movement, imaginative sports & yoga- fitness, and interactive storytelling. Travel guides fly all over the world using choreographed dance-fitness, while introducing new cultures, languages, and music to babies, toddlers, and preschoolers. Children love the B Fit Kids program where they express their independence to laugh, grow, and play through dance.

Co-founders Ethel Baumberg and Ashley Spicer created B Fit Kids with a mission to combat childhood obesity and bullying in schools. The international theme allows children to learn about new cultures, languages, and experiences. The choreographed dance and fitness aspect keeps children moving and enjoying exercise.

 

The company has officially launched their program for preschoolers, toddlers, and Mommy & Me classes in preschools, recreational centers, community centers, elementary schools, summer camps, and more. To take a B Fit Kids class free of charge, attend the Children’s Health & Fitness Expo on May 4th from 10 am – 2 pm at the Garden State Dance Project School in Wayne, NJ. The B Fit Kids class will begin at 11 am; families are encouraged to participate.

 

 B Fit Kids is also certifying instructors to become travel guides nationwide.  Instructors can be moms, dads, fitness professionals, teachers, college students, or anyone who loves working with children. The next training for instructors is on March 23, 2014, taking place inside of B Fit Studio in Pompton Plains, NJ.

 

A word from the co-founders: “Together we built an enrichment program which targets both the prevention of childhood obesity and bullying. Our mission is to create a world of healthy and happy children, who accept other cultures and nationalities with open minds and open hearts. We love working with children, we love this program, and we look forward to expanding B Fit Kids as a global company.”
