Kinderkinetics is a specialised paediatric field focused on newborns through to children of 13. We use scientific test batteries and age- and gender-based norms to build gross motor skills through structured physical activity programmes. Proudly affiliated with SAPIK — the South African Professional Institute for Kinderkinetics.
Stimulate the brain with movement, while the window is open.
Kinderkinetics uses test batteries and scientific information — such as age- and gender-based norms — to develop a child's gross motor skills through physical activity programmes.
Programmes focus on maintaining, developing and optimising children's physical abilities and gross motor skills. Each one is built around where the child actually is, not where a chart says they should be.
Children go through developmental periods when they learn new skills and concepts with remarkable ease. It is crucial to stimulate a child's brain with movement during these periods. This lays a good foundation not only for motor development, but for academic, social and emotional development too.
Standardised test batteries establish a baseline before any programme begins.
Norms guide the plan; your child's results shape it.
Motor gains carry into academic, social and emotional development.
Because that is how children learn best — and keep coming back.
Tap any programme to see what a session involves — then enquire in one click.
Gentle, structured stimulation in the window where the nervous system is developing fastest.
The building blocks — running, jumping, throwing, catching, balance — done properly.
One-on-one sessions for children who need targeted, patient, individualised work.
For the child who has the basics and now wants to be good at the game.
Three views of the same work — switch between them.
Not sure whether your child fits? Send an enquiry — that is exactly what it is for.
Regular exercise is an inexpensive and relatively risk-free way to invest in your child holistically.
Research links exercise to both motor development and scholastic achievement.
Gross motor skill forms the basis of all movement — sport and school related alike.
The ability to acquire new movement skills decreases as children get older.
Exercise on a regular basis is inexpensive and a relatively risk-free way to invest in your child holistically. The positive correlation between exercise and the development of children has been proven through various research, referring to motor development as well as scholastic achievement.
Kinderkinetics has the ability to promote the gross motor skills of your child, which greatly benefits their school readiness and forms the basis of all movement — sport and school related.
During a child's development there is a certain time frame when tasks are learnt with great ease. Children need to be stimulated during this time frame to establish a proper foundation for movement and develop basic movement skills.
The ability of your child to acquire new movement skills decreases as they get older. Starting sooner means less work for a bigger result.
A peek at our classes in action.
Tell us about your child and we will get back to you. An assessment is always the first step.
A full motor assessment, roughly 45 minutes, with feedback on the day.
Comfortable clothes, takkies, and any previous therapy or school reports.
30–45 minutes depending on age and programme.
An enquiry is just a conversation starter — we will guide you from there.
Thank you — we have your details and will get back to you shortly.
