Kids Training Lab is a specialized calisthenics facility for kids ages 5–14, created to offer the real alternative to screen time. No weights, no ego. Just pure bodyweight movement, dedicated coaching, and athletic habits that last a lifetime.
The idea began when founder Michael Leonov began training with his son, Maddox, at just three years old. Experiencing firsthand how bodyweight movement, exercise, and play built unshakable confidence, discipline, and healthy habits from an early age, Michael set out to create a dedicated gym where every child can build those same foundational habits.

Frequently Asked Questions
Have questions about training at Kids Training Lab? Here is everything parents need to know about our classes, coaching, and policies.
What is the duration of each class?
Each training session runs for 45–60 minutes. Based on youth athletic development research, this is the optimal duration for kids and teens ages 5–14: long enough for a dynamic warm up, foundational calisthenics skill building, agility drills, and cooldown stretches, while keeping energy and engagement high without physical or mental burnout.
What training options and group sizes do you offer?
We offer two dedicated training formats designed to provide close, individualized coaching:
- Private 1-on-1 Coaching: Tailored one-on-one sessions customized to your child's specific athletic goals, confidence building, or sport preparation.
- Semi Private Groups (Up to 4 Kids): Small, focused cohorts capped at a maximum of 4 kids per certified coach. This ensures every child receives direct attention, technique corrections, and personal progressions, never crowded babysitting.
Are your programs beginner friendly for kids with no experience?
Yes, absolutely! Our curriculum is 100% beginner friendly and designed specifically for ages 5–14. We meet each child at their current physical foundation, teaching basic movement mechanics, balance, spatial awareness, and mobility through fun, scalable exercises. No prior fitness experience or athletic background is required.
What are your drop off and pick up policies?
Parents have full flexibility: you are welcome to drop off your child for their 45–60 minute session, or stay and watch from our comfortable parent viewing area. We maintain a secure check-in and check-out protocol to ensure that children are only released to authorized parents or guardians. Please arrive 5 minutes before scheduled start time.
How do you ensure safety and coach supervision?
Safety is our highest priority at Kids Training Lab. Every session is led by background checked, certified youth coaches trained in biomechanics, First Aid, and CPR. Because we focus strictly on bodyweight calisthenics with no heavy weights or dangerous equipment, the risk of injury is minimal. With our 4:1 max coach-to-student ratio and custom high density padded flooring, every movement is closely supervised.
