Youth Athletic Foundations Program

(Ages 4-5, 6-9, 10+)

Monthly Program

August 2026 - May 2027

The Youth Athletic Foundations Program is an uniquely structured physical education program specially designed to nurture a child’s physical and spiritual development.

Physical Development

This program builds strong movement skills that support all sports and activities. Rather than focusing on competition or early specialization, this program emphasizes an array of fundamental athletic skills that include balance, coordination, jumping, catching, agility, and body control — the core building blocks of athleticism that all kids need.

Spiritual Development

This program is rooted in principles of faith. Islam is not only learned in mosques and at school, but in athletics too. Every participant gains exposure to what is means to be a good teammate, how to be trustworthy, they learn about discipline and what it means to develop good character. Every class ends with a message of the day that instills an akhirah-centric mindset in every child.

Hosted at multiple locations around Dallas, the program provides a safe, consistent space for kids to move, learn, and grow during the school year. In addition to developing foundational athletic skills, participants will be exposed to a variety of sports giving them an opportunity to grow in every way!

Absolutely amazing coach! My son is very shy and attached and he opened up so much during sessions (I used to take to him other classes as well such as Sunday School). He is very gentle and spends time teaching them about good manners and other Islamic concepts as well (sabr, consistency, etc)
