How Does it Work
Our initial program is designed to immediately give girls voice and choice in the activities. While the core leadership curriculum is standard throughout, we allow the girls in the program to choose from a variety of physical and athletic acitivies based on interest, availalbe space and equipment. Activities vary from volleyball to yoga to flag football to fencing to group walks…you get the idea. The sport or activity is not the key focus in this 2-4-1 program – leadership development and community building are!

Bring 2-4-1 Girls Leadership to your School
The 2-4-1 Girls Leadership Progam can be tailored to any school-communty with girls grades 5 to 11. While designed iniitally for Middle School girls, the program can be adapted to other age groups.
Our ideal group sizes are between 10-24 and we need a quiet space for instruction and an open space to accomodate play-based movement.
