JUMP FORWARD is a community outreach program based on jumping rope. By teaching and engaging children and adults in movement we empower the community overall. The best part is everyone has fun at the same time! We work with individuals and groups to reach their goals and encourage healthy living. Teaching basic skills to mastery, we focus on the needs of each participant as well as the group as a whole. The group grows and strengthens collectively.
We educate, create, and inspire! Using jump rope to promote physical activity, we activate the mind and body, and develop youth leaders by reinforcing critical thinking, problem-solving skills, positive and effective communication, and service to others. Group participation is expected all the while encouraging individual growth. This growth continues exponentially as we train and develop teachers by using students to teach their peers and younger participants.
The Jump Forward program is the standard for consistent, effective activity. Peer leadership is our approach and model focusing on youth development. Jump Forward is about helping every child live a full life; fulfilling their potential, and recognizing their unique gifts and how they can share them. It is about the treasure of diversity and building stronger communities. It is about the uniqueness of each individual and the value of their contributions to humanity. Each and every child is special!
