The program was designed with care, it is research based, scientificaly tested and has proved to be effective. The FitForKids Program has a positive effect on children, they tend to become more active, have more energy, are more motivated to have a healthier lifestyle, their social and self-esteem also develop.

L’Orma has been part of this project and we are very proud to say that many children participate in our training sessions held twice a week.[/mk_fancy_title][vc_single_image image=”1389″ img_size=”full”][mk_fancy_title color=”#1b1b1b” size=”21″ force_font_size=”true” size_smallscreen=”21″ size_tablet=”18″ size_phone=”18″ font_weight=”400″ font_family=”Ubuntu” font_type=”google” responsive_align=”left” el_class=”testonero”]The project is implemented in three countries, in Denmark, Portugal and Italy.
