Risky Kids builds confidence and resilience by guiding children through exciting challenges such as acrobatics, free running, parkour and stunt skills.
Today, parents and children face greater challenges than ever when it comes to mental, physical and social health, including:
- decreased outdoor play;
- low emotional and physical resilience;
- high rates of childhood obesity;
- decreased sense of identity.
The Risky Kids program aims to help children reach their full potential through 'Risky Play'. In developmental psychology, 'Risky Play' is where children are guided through a process of risks and challenges to gain a better understanding of their minds and bodies.
