Notes

Right Fit - Sport Fitness Wellness, LLC (Right Fit) is an exciting and innovative organization that serves the children, teenagers and adults of the Village of Burr Ridge and its surrounding communities. Right Fit's objective is to retrain all of its clients to adopt healthier lifestyles. The organization has an emphasis on reaching children and young adults and has specifically designed health and fitness programs to reach youth with special needs. Right Fit grew out of its founder's beliefs that the serious epidemic of youth and adult obesity in this country must be conquered by a tailored approach to meet individual needs and expectations. Right Fit will introduce preventative strategies and age appropriate behavior modification programs to lower the long-term physical, emotional, social and economic ramifications to our families and communities.

The Right Fit founders have created and developed the I.O.W.A. (Individualized Ongoing Weight-Management Activities) and P.A.T. (Postural Awareness Training) Programs. The I.O.W.A. Program will introduce sport specific training exercises, but the focus is not sport. The focus is movement. Another unique part of the I.O.W.A. Program is the involvement and relationship between child, trainer and parents. The family will understand the goals their child has set and will commit to the necessary level of involvement required to achieve optimum health, fitness and wellness lifestyle changes.

The Right Fit founders are experienced in working with adults, youth and youth with special needs particularly in the area of individualized exercise presciption. Suzanne Gray and David Geslak are university trained fitness experts that have 30 years of combined experience working with children in different settings. These include preschool, grade school, middle school, high school, college, health clubs and hospital. Their approach will put the client in a comfortable setting that will allow him/her to develop confidence and build self-esteem.

At Right Fit everyone is able to participate and trainers work with their clients to help them accomplish realistic goals to achieve improved health and fitness. In working with families the founders of Right Fit have come to understand that parents want to avoid the serious risks of a sedentary lifestyle to their children. Parents are seeking qualified and experienced instructors and expertly designed programs that work with the individual and their specific goals.
