Start Smart Programs by Ocala Recreation and Parks

Start Smart was developed by top motor skill development specialists in the field of youth sports. Parent-child groups perform motor skill tasks that gradually build confidence in children while they are having fun at the same time.

Start Smart Programs are all designed as six one-hour sessions. Each session will take the participants through four different skill stations where one or two skills will be introduced and performed. Most programs are offered one day per week for six consecutive weeks to allow parents and their children time to practice in-between sessions.

Start Smart currently offers eight different sports programs. Any or all of these programs can be offered by a youth service agency. Check website below for current programs being offered.
