CrossFit Kids is a strength and conditioning program designed specifically to help kids and teenagers develop a love for health and fitness.
Our CrossFit classes are done in a group setting which helps to aid in developing social skills and team work as well as enabling them to work on their own.
Our program will teach your children new and fun movements while being educated on the importance of health and fitness. The workouts will help develop their motor patterns, movement and prepare them with well-rounded movement for their yearly years. The workouts are constantly varied and functional, which means the movements learned and practised will have a carry over into their daily lives, directly or indirectly.
Using basic movements like pulling, pushing, jumping, running, throwing, lifting and climbing will all help keep the kids engaged and having fun. As they progress through the years and into the older age groups, the classes have more of an adult look to them. This is where we start to add more intensity to the classes with weight, speed and more advanced movements like the Olympic Weightlifting movements.
Regardless of age all of the children will work on all aspects of fitness: Strength, Power, Endurance, Stamina, Flexibility, Accuracy, Coordination, Agility, Balance and Speed.
There’s a saying that most adult CrossFitters say and that’s “I wish I’d of started CrossFit as a kid” which is why we at CrossFit Braintree are extremely excited and proud to be able to offer CrossFit Kids classes allowing you to give your children a fantastic addition to their health!
Your Childs 1st CrossFit

What to expect…
A CrossFit Kids program is not a scaled adults program, don’t expect your child to be smashing a world record Clean and Jerk. Your child will not be lifting any weights until the Coach deems your child is ready and that loads added, will benefit your child. And there you have it, CrossFit Kids!

We will be running two age groups for classes:
- Kids (ages 5-11)
Thursdays
3:45-4:20pm
- Teens (ages 11-18)
Mon, Wed & Fri
3:45-4:25pm
Please note: it is not the age of your child that is the deciding factor for what class he or she attends. It is largely based upon individual skill, athleticism, as well as maturity which is ultimately decided upon by the Head Coach to ensure your child is getting the most out of the CrossFit experience.
Kids classes will be 30-40 minutes, and the Teens classes will be 40-45 minutes, these have a similar look and session plan to the adult classes.
CrossFit Kids Classes
We run our CrossFit Kids classes on Thursdays, 3:45-4:15/25pm. The ages for the kids classes are 5-11 years old but this is a guide line only and more based around the physical and mental maturity of each child.
CrossFit kids is £25 per month on a rolling 1 month contract.
CrossFit Teens
Our teens classes are from ages 11-17 but just like the kids, this is based on physical and mental maturity. Our Teens classes follow a similar look to our adults classes and can have a huge impact on your childs physical development and maturity. CrossFit will help your child improve in all as[ects of their life both mentally and physically, building strength, movement patterns and confidence to take into other sports and life.
