How Homeschool PE really works

Kids need safe, social activity that keeps them moving—especially now when screen time stretches the day.

Confidence drops when fitness options feel either too soft or too intense. Families deserve a beginner-friendly program that blends structure with encouragement.

Sensei Sandy’s BJJ delivers that mix: disciplined play, caring coaches, and a Homeschool PE experience your child actually wants, all 100% NYS PE compliant.
