Alpha Step
AlphaStep offers 20+ courses, across five categories which include; Foundational, Ninja Warrior, Strength & Conditioning, Sports Specific, and Fitness Builder. Their team share the core belief that it is essential for children to engage in physical exercise from an early age. They were alarmed by the lack of emphasis on children’s fitness in Hong Kong, as physical education at local schools is currently significantly below the recommended WHO standard. At AlphaStep, we were inspired to change this norm in the community and provide a solution. Through building children’s fine and gross motor proficiency, confidence, problem solving, and interpersonal skills, they are set on ‘Forging Greatness’.
