Alphabet Fitness™ is an exciting new program for 3-6 year olds that combines fitness and literacy.  With the direction of a physical therapist and dance director, Boston-area researcher Karen Voght designed an anatomical alphabet for young children, allowing them to more easily identify with language learning by forming their letters and words with their entire body.

Just a few of its many benefits:

• Kids have fun exercising their bodies to shape their letters while learning the pre-requisite skills required for alphabet knowledge, reading-readiness, language comprehension, and overall fitness in today's less physically interactive, fast paced world. 
• Children develop a positive learning attitude, a love for literacy, expanded and integrated language connections, and a healthier understanding of language and the role it plays in their lives and the lives of those around them.
• Incorporates current brain research, sport visualization techniques for optimal performance, childhood play behaviors, and established wellness practices.
• Calm attentive muscles are essential to each child’s ability to test well, focus well, and read well, and learning language in a positive environment is key to a child’s literacy success.
• Offers endless opportunities to bring parents and children closer, by exercising their brains and bodies together, each time they see a word or letter.

Muscles are magical.  They can make us smile or frown, jump or fall, laugh or cry, be alert or lazy, and happy or crazy.  Muscles are fundamental to our ability to learn and be well.  No two children have the exact same perspective while learning since the experience is contingent on the coordinated states of their entire set of body muscles.
