Class Summary

The 4 stages of development in Montessori education

At Active Kids PE, we prioritize developmentally appropriate activities for children over merely completing tasks.

Adults should not rush or get ahead of themselves but rather observe and support activities best suited to each child.

For children aged 0 to 6, we aim to provide multiple opportunities for them to experience the satisfaction and success of "I did it on my own!" We create an environment where children can feel a sense of accomplishment through their own efforts.

For children aged 6 to 12, our goal is to support them in "thinking for themselves" through gymnastics.

Greetings

Compared to my own childhood, I feel that the opportunities and time for children to play outside have significantly decreased.

In this era of rapid digitalization and social media, while global connections and swift information sharing have become possible, the importance of face-to-face communication is also being recognized.

In my class, we focus not only on improving physical abilities but also on the concepts of " Watch, Listen and TRY".

We aim to develop self-expression skills, the ability to build relationships with others, an understanding of responsible freedom, and the ability to think and act independently.

I hope that through this class, you will cherish the "encounters" with friends and coaches.
