found<\/a>\u00a0that long-term youth sports participation boosts adult mental health and that those who played regular sport through to the age of 18 displayed the least depression and anxiety symptoms.<\/p>\nWhether that\u2019s running, hiking, bike riding or aerial classes, the benefits of getting them up and moving are many and continue well into adulthood.<\/p>\n
New York based celebrity fitness trainer, wellness entrepreneur and father of two David Kirsch \u2013 whose clients include Heidi Klum, Kate Upton and Jennifer Lopez \u2013 is a long time advocate of getting kids active early and regularly works out with his own six year old twin daughters.<\/p>\n
\u201cTo me, loving your kids means teaching them to make smart choices from an early age \u2013 not just handing over sweet treats,\u2019 he told Yahoo parenting recently.<\/p>\n
He shared: ‘The moment your kids start crawling they are exercising. To them, movement is fun and organic…\u00a0It is adults who have turned daily activity into a mandatory chore.’\u00a0<\/p>\n
‘Many kids today don\u2019t get the level of activity that they need and that, coupled with some other factors, has contributed to the sad and deeply troubling childhood obesity epidemic.\u2019<\/p>\n
He added that one of the most important lessons to teach kids was that ‘bodies come in all shapes and sizes and that being healthy is more important than being thin\u2019.<\/p>\n
Heather is also a strong proponent of body positivity and building kids confidence via physical activity.<\/p>\n
\u201cMany of us think that being a healthy example to our children is hard work but it\u2019s really as simple as finding some time \u2013 any time \u2013 to get any kind of physical activity into your day.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cOver time, you will increase your fitness, become more confident trying new ways of exercising and inadvertently pass that on to your children. One day, your good habits will become theirs.<\/p>\n
\u201cAt Flex studio Hong Kong we offer a range of classes for kids and teens, welcoming children starting from as young as eight years old.<\/p>\n
She said she started offering classes for children and teens way back in 2009 at Flex\u2019s Hong Kong-based studio as awareness of the benefits of Pilates for children increased.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe exercises and classes we run are always tailored to fit the age and size of the participants, with only teens participating in reformer classes for example because younger, smaller bodies are not well-suited for it.<\/p>\n
\u201cMat Pilates is more appropriate for preteens and our popular aerial classes are suitable for a wider range of ages, starting from as young as 8 years old.\u201d<\/p>\n
While an overly rigorous, or excessively competitive exercise regimen is not always suitable or beneficial for young children, lower impact workouts and activities such as Pilates provide a safe and healthy option for growing bodies.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur classes are also great for helping children and young people to develop self-confidence with their bodies as they progress and build their strength and flexibility and confidence, ensuring they also have a positive impact on their self-esteem.\u201d<\/p>\n
While young children should always be encouraged to run, jump and skip and engage in unstructured play, she said it is important also that they start to get in touch with their bodies as they grow and develop.<\/p>\n
Starting the process early and making it fun and age appropriate will help them develop a positive mind and muscle connection as they grow and help them develop what hopefully becomes a lifelong love of physical activity.<\/p>\n
She said the popularity of the classes has been growing year on year in line with an increasing awareness among parents and teens about the importance of health and fitness.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere is a particular focus on spinal health, especially for teens who spend a lot of time on screens or sitting, as well as those involved in sports who seek to enhance their performance through Pilates.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
Heather said the studio\u2019s aerial classes were among the most popular with children and young people attending the studio.<\/p>\n
Let\u2019s exercise but let\u2019s make it fun!<\/b><\/p>\n
\u201cThe key is to make fitness enjoyable and that is borne out not only by research but by anecdotal experience.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur aerial classes, for example, are very popular because they not only make exercise fun but also help decompress the spine and offer the unique sensation of \u2018flying\u2019 with the unique sensory experience they offer of being cocooned in a hammock is also very beneficial.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI like aerial because it helps loosen your muscles if they are sore and also makes you more flexible and it\u2019s really fun\u201d was the feedback from one of our keen young aerial participants.<\/p>\n
\u201cI feel more flexible because before I couldn\u2019t really do the splits and barely open my legs to V-shape, but now I can expand my legs more.\u201d She adds, \u201cI feel stronger in my arms too as sometimes in the warmup we do the hanging exercise and that has helped me.\u201d<\/p>\n
So what are the benefits of Pilates for children and teens? <\/b><\/p>\n
\u201cWhile the popularity and benefits of Pilates among adults is now well known and widely accepted, the benefits to children and young people, while not as well known, are equally significant,\u201d explained Heather.<\/p>\n
These include better posture and spinal alignment as children grow and develop.<\/p>\n
Pilates practice helps strengthen the deep postural muscles that support spinal alignment, which means better posture and less back injuries later in life.<\/p>\n
Heather said Pilates can also help children and teens improve their concentration and focus, calm them down using practiced breathing techniques and help promote a more positive mindset.<\/p>\n
\u201cKids also benefit in terms of improved strength, flexibility and balance, which in turn can help their performance on the soccer, hockey or netball field and build their confidence and strength as they progress.<\/p>\n
\u201cPilates can also become a lifelong passion!\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
\u201cOnce learned it is learned for life and can be practiced at any age into our 90s and beyond \u2013 there are so many benefits to starting young.\u201d<\/p>\n
