Founder and CEO Sophia Wastler says, "Physical activity and learning skills are linked to success in children." Starz Instructor Clarissa Clark of Virginia Beach comments, "Kids love being challenged - and the Starz Program provides a wonderful curriculum that is well-rounded in level of difficulty. I have seen bashful and reserved children come out of their shell as they learn new skills. The lessons we teach help children with cognitive memory by learning terminology, improving fitness abilities, and, best of all, elevating their overall sense of well-being."

Starz provides fundamental skills-development and training for preschool and elementary age children in the areas of sports, dance, cheer, and fitness. Its goal is to promote skills and fitness which contribute to one's self-confidence and overall well-being. By providing these classes on-site at schools and other facilities, Starz makes it easy for busy families to give their children the opportunity to learn and develop skills that will benefit them on a multitude of levels.

Day School Director, Karen Kearse of Virginia Beach, VA says: "The wonderful STARZ program has been a fixture at Emmanuel Episcopal Day School for over a decade. We love that our students and their families are given the opportunity to enjoy exploring various fun and exciting after school activities with STARZ. More importantly, the children also build confidence and self -esteem, while learning to work as a team with the help of the amazing STARZ staff."

Jessica O'Connor of Chesapeake, VA has her children enrolled in the Starz Program. Her comments, "We love STARZ because it is a great way to introduce young children to a variety of different sports activities. I especially love it because it is conveniently located at my children's school, and it coincides with the hours they attend school. My kids are always excited when it's "cheer day" during the week. They love coming home to show me the new things they have learned in class each week. They especially love showing off the tumbling moves they've been taught."

Starz takes great pride in making a positive impact in the communities it serves. Children, parents and schools realize and enjoy the many benefits that come with partnership of the program.  Additionally, new owners are thrilled to bring STARZ to their communities.
