Hide AdMIchelle Green, co-owner and coach of Kixx Chesterfield, said: “Each video and session we put out has a theme and story that has been continuing throughout.
“There’s been a fun rivalry building up since the first session between one of our coaches and our national mascot, The Kixx Monkey, and children and truly love watching this story play out.
“Each session has been put together to keep children active and to make them laugh and smile throughout. It’s our mission to keep putting together the free sessions and keep positively impacting as many children can until we return.
“The comments and emails received since the launch of the online sessions have been very humbling.”
