Grades can be offered on request and grades will be based on participation and completing a mile in each class.Class Experience
Kids need a TON of movement. Some of that movement should be play, some should be using their upper body to swing and hang, and a lot of it should be walking. This class gets kids moving and learning how important it is to do for body and brain. Each class is paced to ensure everyone gets in at least a mile and can be done in one space, without leaving the home. The effects created by movement are very similar to the effects created by eating or ingesting supplements or pharmaceuticals. Your body responds very specifically to the various forces created by movement so let's get moving together. I am energetic and flexible in my teaching style. I will workout with students while helping to work on technique and style while allowing students to also have a say in the direction of each class. I create a team atmosphere and create a classroom that is not just a group of students on screen, but we become a team supporting each other and working together to complete goals. Walking together becomes a great way to socialize too.

Enthusiastic mom of 2 kids, Lisa Ely first learned to garden from her dad in their backyard when she was 6. Ever since there has not been a pile of dirt that she didn’t want to get her hands in.
Lisa is creator of Learn, Giggle & Grow Garden Curriculum and the co-author of three books under the Kinder Gardens umbrella. She is currently working on her next book series and a multi-media, adventure gardening experience for families to learn more and be inspired every day.
Prior to launching her children’s and family gardening enterprise, Lisa traveled the world over and over as an award-winning non-fiction TV producer and director. Some of her credits, like CBSs The Amazing Race, Discovery’s Garden Police and a number of shows on HGTV (including the Rose Parade) have helped her learn more about her garden passion.
Lisa’s always been described as a big kid and it wasn’t until she had kids that people stopped looking at her a bit funny when she would start a mud ball fight or run through the sprinklers. She admits that she’s good at playing because she’s had years of practice! She lives by her new family motto of “We’re washable!”
Lisa loves being in front of group sharing her love of everything fun in the garden. Some of her favorite classes are focused on worm science, eating the rainbow, tomato talk, soil on the move and root, stems, oh my!
When she’s not gardening she’s often with her husband watching their kids play baseball, paddling a dragon boat or playing her own version of “Chopped” to get a nightly dinner on the table!
