CFLI Kids/Teens has been established based off the principle that fitness should be FUN. We incorporate kids of all ability levels and instill life's most important values about maintaining a healthy and fit lifestyle. Our "Exercise in Disguise" strategies mixed in with some ol' fashioned hard work enable us to help the Kids reach their potential as young athletes. With facing challenging tasks on a daily basis, CFLI Kids understand that not everything in life is easy at first, but they will succeed eventually. We are confident in our ability to create physically capable and emotionally confident young boys and girls, fully prepared for all of life's challenges.

With the obesity epidemic sweeping the nation, and the lack of effort and caring by the Public School Systems, CF Kids is the perfect gateway for instilling proper eating and lifestyle habits. Even the youngest levels of CF Kids will begin to learn not only the importance of proper nutrition, but how to practice healthy habits both at school and at home. Although taught in a fun way, the importance of these values will be made clear right from the start and will pave the way for a long healthy life.

The same tools used for the most premier Strength and Conditioning facility on Long Island, magically become transformed into obstacle courses, agility courses, and learning mechanisms for the youngsters. In addition to modifiying the "adult" equipment, things like tumbling mats, and lightweight/plastic fitness equipment are strategically mixed in to the classroom to create a safe and exciting atmosphere where fun and fitness go hand-in-hand.

Between a Bachelors Degree in Physical Education from SUNY Cortland, a CrossFit Kids Certification, CrossFit Level 1 certification, and a fun-loving personality, Ian has all the ingredients for CF Kids instructor, and it's no surprise that he is a fan-favorite of CFLI Kids of all ages. Ian brings an energy into the kids classroom that is highly contagious and creates the perfect environment for students to not only learn all about health and fitness, but have a blast doing it!

Also graduating with a Bachelors Degree from SUNY Cortland, Brian took his love for fitness and working with children to the next level by earning his CrossFit Kids Certification and adding a CFLI Kid/Teens program here at CFLI. Having a special interest in Elementary Phys Ed came naturally to Brian as he loves the enthusiasm and willingness to learn and play from the youngsters.
