Welcome Back, Parents! Today's episode is about creating confidence in your kids by speaking their language through play and movement!
We talk about the importance of asking questions vs giving answers, preparing our kids rather than protecting them from hard experiences, and 3 Key things that all kids need:
Meet Curt Jordan,
In 2016, after teaching kids for 15 years, Curt used all his savings to buy a van and parkour equipment and started his quest to empower kids to become physically and emotionally stronger.
Curt is the Founder and Chief Visionary at Kong Academy. He is a monkey and he loves to play! He has been trained and worked as a physical therapy assistant, paramedic, personal trainer, lifeguard, parkour instructor, and as a special education teacher. He started working with kids when he was 13 and he is passionate about helping people improve their minds, bodies, and spirits. Curt connects with kids at their level and he speaks their language of play and movement. That's why his teaching is so impactful: it's meaningful and relevant to kids' lives.
Curt believes the simplest thing you can do when you're upset as a child or an adult is to, Say how you feel and ask for what you need.
