Our History
Obese children and adolescents are more likely to become obese as adults. For example, one study found that approximately 80% of children who were overweight at aged 10–15 years were obese adults at age 25 years. Another study found that 25% of obese adults were overweight as children. The latter study also found that if overweight begins before 8 years of age, obesity in adulthood is likely to be more severe.
Fit Kids Fit Families is determined to change this trend, and keep fighting obesity at every possible front. To that end, we have united with Hojati Karate Academy and Claycomb Karate Academy in Southern California, and are expanding our program, to at-risk children and families. Currently we are offering structured and creative exercise classes and nutritional guidance at two locations in West Hills and Fontana, California.
We are also fortunate to have become a vendor, for Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD). During the Spring semester, we conducted two 12-week sessions, for over 100 students in our local schools, free of charge.
Our goal is to reach over 1,000 young children, and help them appreciate the danger that they could be facing, and teach them to make the right choices.
