Do you have "YES!" people in your life? I like to think I am also a bird of this feather, but if you've met Christina Collins, founder of Never Stop Moving 365, you've met one of the best. See a need for increasing activity for kids? Yes. Break down barriers to accessing extracurriculars? Yes. Enrich an event with free fitness fun? Yes.
Never Stop Moving 365 has exploded since its inception and it comes as no surprise. When you're led by a founder with both vision and expertise, and you combine it with a well-trained and motivated team, you are going to have results. The energy in a session is contagious, and I have seen first-hand how quickly the coaches build rapport with a group.
I'm so grateful to feature Christina here in our Small Business Spotlight series, although this would be more aptly named a Growing Business Spotlight, as Never Stop Moving franchises are popping up around the country! Learn more about the why behind the work as Christina shares the Never Stop Moving story with us!

What is the story behind your business? How did you get started?
I was positively impacted by my PE teacher growing up and knew I wanted to have that same impact on children. Sports and fitness have taught me so many life lessons and that is what we strive to do at NeverStopMoving365, as well as build confidence through sports and exercise. love inspiring youth to enjoy movement and living an active, healthy lifestyle.
What are some fun facts about you or your business?
I am vegetarian, a boy mom X2, a doctoral student, the wife of a firefighter, and a franchisor. Only a handful of women like me in the world have self funded a franchise (Sarah Blakely of Spanx is another).
What does your business offer its' customers?
We bring physical activity fun to your doorstep. We grow children's confidence through swim and bike lessons, exercise and sports tutoring one rep, pedal, and stroke at a time! We come to you! Booking a youth movement specialist on demand is easy on our free app you can access 24/7.
What are you most proud of?
I am most proud of all the children we make inclusive physical activity available for and this impact is growing. We started out being able to offer discounts to families of low socio-economic status then full student athlete scholarships. Now we are able to put on events such as a FREE bike clinic, partner with districts to put on a free field day and even teach children in UPK at risk of drowning how to swim through our donations.
Anything else you would like to share?
Thank you so much for all you do in helping us get the word out. Many parents feel guilty their children do not like team sports and sit inside on nice weather days or on screens because they do not know we are an option! No scoreboard, pressure, crowds, stats, just movement for wellness.
