A Personal Journey: Discovering My Path

​

Growing up, mainstream sports like football and cricket dominated the scene, and extreme sports were unheard of. Yet, I found myself drawn to the way the human body moved and expressed itself. Then, one day, my best friend invited me to try gymnastics—a sport I knew nothing about but felt oddly compelled to explore. I envisioned it as a world where, like Spiderman, you could defy gravity and express yourself in ways that felt almost superhuman.

I counted down the days until I could start. The day finally came in February 1979, and from the moment I entered the gym, I knew: I had found my sport. I had found my tribe.

 

Navigating the Unconventional Path

​

Back then, gymnastics was an uncommon choice for boys, and choosing it came with its challenges. But gymnastics gave me a sense of purpose and confidence that transcended social pressures. It wasn’t a popular sport, but it was my sport—a place where I could be myself without fear of judgment. This unique journey taught me the importance of embracing what makes us different.

These experiences are what inspire me to create an environment at Kids in Motion that welcomes children who feel the need to explore beyond the mainstream. We understand the courage it takes to step outside the norm, and we cherish every child’s journey to finding where they truly belong.

 

A Community Built on Acceptance

At Kids in Motion, we’ve created a safe haven for kids to be celebrated just as they are. Here, children find a place where they’re seen, accepted, and valued—not despite their quirks, but because of them. We cherish those “Me too!” moments that bind us all into a community, a tribe where everyone feels at home.
