You may find physical education offered in your kid’s school insufficient. Fortunately, what schools lack in terms of physical activities for your child, fitness clubs can offer.

Women played sports 50 years ago, but nowhere near the level they do today. Not only are girls more active than they used to be, but they are just as active as boys.

Fitness programs can help prevent many physical and mental health conditions, such as obesity, osteoporosis, certain cancers, stress and depression.
