About Us
"It's all about the FUNdamentals!"
Zippy Squirrels was born because, as parents who watched our own kids light up when climbing trees and leaping over backyard obstacles, we believe children deserve an environment where play and exploration come before early sport specialization.
By focusing on general athletic skills—speed, agility, coordination, balance, and strength—our programs build a solid foundation that supports any sport (or lifestyle) they choose later on.
What sets us apart is our commitment to long-term benefits: instead of drilling a single skill, we guide kids through varied, fun challenges that promote whole body physical development, lifelong confidence, injury prevention, and a genuine love of movement.
Our Mission
Our Superpower Equation:
Active Body + Strong Mind = Lifelong Success
Zippy Squirrels empowers children ages 18 months to 12 years to unlock their mental and physical potential and foster a lifelong love of sports through fun, engaging, coach-led classes focused on developing fundamental athletic skills.
Our Vision
Through joyful movement and teamwork at Zippy Squirrels—a vibrant community hub beyond a gym—we envision every child developing confidence, resilience, and curiosity, carrying a growth mindset into all areas of life. By nurturing physical strength and mental grit through playful, coach-led experiences, we ignite lifelong well-being, a passion for sport, and purposeful leadership.
Our Team
Our coaching team comprises certified youth‐fitness and early‐childhood specialists—all holding CPR, First Aid, and Safe Sport credentials, as well as personal training certifications such as NASM CPT and NSCA CSCS. United by a passion for play and ongoing professional development, they deliver safe, engaging, coach-led classes that celebrate each child’s progress, build resilience, and foster teamwork every step of the way.
