Our Mission

To encourage strongly children everywhere, particularly those historically under-served and under-resourced, to build their physical, mental, social, and emotional health.

Our Vision

Through the collaborative work of health and fitness professionals, mental health therapists, and educators, Project Strongly Kids aims to create engaging and effective live shows and digital content that teach and inspire elementary-aged students to build their physical, mental, and social-emotional health.

a bit more about us

Founded in 2007 by nationally recognized fitness professional Joshua Crawford, Project Strongly Kids has grown from a simple fitness program for elementary-age students into an educational, highly-effective method to inspire children to value all aspects of their health - inside and out. We have a special focus on those children who don’t usually have access to fitness and health facilities and programs - and we reach them via their afterschool programs. We accomplish all this while entertaining, as well.

Our Mr. Strongly YouTube videos are thoughtfully designed with input from Crawford’s advanced degree in Exercise Science and experience from his current role as a Physical Education Teacher, but also from mental health therapists and veteran teachers. The product, we believe, is the most engaging and informative content regarding children’s health to date.
