About the provider

Lionhearts Fitness says it was founded in 2018 and started the organization in December 2018. It says the program is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit and was a finalist in Chattanooga Best of the Best, with first place in two categories: Best Place to Take Your Kids and Best Non Profit. The program says it was built entirely by volunteers and community support and has adopted a creek, fed the hungry, and provided blankets and jackets to the local homeless.

• Personalized/Professional Coaching — Available for a cost; this is not a Lionhearts Non Profit endeavor.

No age or ability segregation. Team building rather than competitive focus. No Phone Zone. Zero tolerance for bullying. Phones are put away during the day except coaches taking photos. Parents may stay with their child. Volunteers are wanted.
