Rather, we run classes on site, at preschools and elementary schools. Led by our awesome coaches, classes pack huge amounts of fun and fitness in a creative, age appropriate, and non-competitive setting. While our Captain Kicks headquarters is located in Mid-City, we work with many schools all over Los Angeles, the San Fernando valley, and the South Bay.

Curriculum: Through age-appropriate and play based soccer curriculum, our objective is to make a positive impact on each child, by introducing them to soccer in a creative, fun, and non-competitive setting. Students will learn new skills and valuable life lessons through positive reinforcement, instilling children with self-confidence. Classes sessions are 8-10 weeks, offered once a week for 30 minutes, 45 minutes or an hour. Most classes take place anywhere between 9am-5pm, during the week. If you like working with kids, enjoy a part time and flexible schedule, and like having fun, Captain Kicks may be for you!
