Finding the right fitness activities for kids can be challenging—especially for parents juggling busy schedules. That’s exactly why Christina Collins, founder of Never Stop Moving 365, created a business that brings fitness training directly to families, providing convenience, customization, and fun.

On Emerging Franchise Brands, Christina shares her journey from being a physical education teacher to pioneering a new category in youth fitness franchising. She explains how she recognized a gap in the market—kids needed more movement opportunities beyond traditional team sports. By offering in-home personal training, swim lessons, and sports tutoring, her company ensures that kids stay active in an enjoyable and pressure-free environment.

One of the biggest differentiators of Never Stop Moving 365 is its mobile model. Families book sessions through an app, allowing for on-demand scheduling without committing to a full season. This flexibility makes fitness more accessible for kids while addressing the growing issue of childhood obesity. Christina also discusses how she carefully selects franchisees—often PE teachers or fitness professionals—who share her passion for movement and mentorship.

With a growing network of locations, Christina envisions Never Stop Moving 365 becoming a nationally recognized brand while maintaining its locally-driven approach. Her advice for aspiring franchisees? Be prepared to grind for the first 18-24 months and stay committed to the mission.
