Training
Our physical activity-based youth development training programs are a sustainable, scalable way to help others achieve the same results we do in our own programs: reduced obesity, increased graduation rates, enhanced work readiness, and the development of physical, mental and emotional well-being.
Since 1994, WFIT has been training trainers—from fitness professionals to teens, college students, parents, multi-subject elementary school teachers and other youth serving professionals. Our Train-the-Trainer model brings much-needed expertise and professional development opportunities to the people who have the greatest influence on our youth, but who rarely have the knowledge or experience needed to help children be more physically active and make healthy choices.
The Multiplier Effect
WFIT maximizes its impact through a network of specially trained service providers and individuals. The process starts with our Master Trainers who teach others how to teach and incorporate our physical activity-based personal empowerment program model. This innovative approach can enhance any existing program and curriculum—not only making a lasting impact on youth, but also on the teens and adults working with them.
Our model is rapidly spreading across the nation and around the world.
