Skipping Workshops in Schools The Skip2bfit Day
The Skip2bfit Skipping Workshops are unique skipping workshops which are not just a skipping workshop , as they combine skipping with numeracy, science, intrinsic motivation, ICT and Healthy Eating. They have been proven to raise standards in schools. The Skipping workshop includes:-
- 1 day Skip2bfit Skipping Workshop taking skipping sessions with each class
- 80g of fresh superfood blueberries are given to each child and all school staff in a recyclable box. Researchers in Boston, US, found blueberries were good for improving co-ordination and memory. Where blueberries are not available then alternative fruit is provided following the skipping workshop
- Double sided colour information sheet for each child on skipping, blueberries (or alternative fruit) and healthy living to enhance healthy eating. We are the only skipping workshop to provide free fruit to all the participants.
- Certificates and skipping rope for each best achiever in each year group and the best effort overall and the top teacher
- Final whole school assembly to reinforce the messages of Skip2bfit Skipping Workshops and hand out the prizes
- Skip2bfit skipping workshop embroidered polo shirt
- 10% from any rope sales is kept by the school in the value of goods
- Motivational demonstration from one our fit instructors. (See John in action in his 2 minute challenge)
Cost: £380 per day. If you would like to book a day in your school please download the booking form and e-mail to info@skip2bfit.com.

Schools that have experienced the Skip2bfit day have commented on how motivational they are.
'I believe the Skip 2B Fit Programme impacts on children’s lives more profoundly than just improving their physical fitness. The physical benefits are self – evident, as are the immediate benefits to mathematical and ICT learning when children work out their scores, handle data etc. ' All Faiths Primary School, Strood
'The cross curricular skipping workshops that you provided across the school were full of energy and highly motivating for our children! We have had skipping workshops in the past but this was much better! You delivered excellent, attention grabbing sessions to all ages! The up to date music was fab and your enthusiasm for skipping was contagious! ' Fairfields Primary School, Cheshunt
Parents have also commented:-
'I just wanted to thank you for providing such inspiration to my son. Skip2bfit visited my son's school some time ago now, just after the loss of my husband ( his daddy ). Feeling very low, he was nervous about trying out new activities, and was unsure about joining in games.
However when he took part in your programme at school, the change in him was remarkable. He had never skipped before , however gave it all he'd got, thanks to the encouragement and positive praise your team gave him. He subsequently came home with a certificate, of which he is still very proud. Since that day his confidence blossomed once again, and he now relishes every new challenge set before him. He feels comfortable trying out new activities with the 'can-do' attitude that he had lost.
Thank you sincerely'
