Here at our school we use Second Step and MindUP and a lot of the things Coach Ben was teaching them today was reinforcing what we’ve shared with them in the classroom. It was a great support.

From Parents

What you have to understand is, these coaches are sowing the seeds of the tree that will bear fruit in years to come- learning how to manage emotions, failure/success - Coach Ryan and Ben have so much energy, and compassion. They are real in terms of - when they have "their moments" they let the kids know- that even s an adult "Its OK" .. and how to best manage it. Love this a tonne. So much blessing and gratitude for the organizers .

"Our daughter LOVES Coaches Ben and Ryan. Us parents love them too. Coaches Ben and Ryan teach and role model mindfulness, appreciation, confidence, sharing, caring for others. And it's just so extra special when others in addition to us parents, are cheering on our kids and making them realize how special each of them are."

Give N' Grow brings high energy, fun workouts while incorporating impactful and meaningful skills that transcend the game of basketball. Both Ben and Ryan are passionate about helping the youth - they wake up every day and are the doing their part to be the change they wish to see in the world - I am humbled and grateful to have come across their program and look forward to their continued growth.
