Whitefield's classical approach cultivates healthy living through movement.
As Christians, we believe that we are embodied souls created to honor God with our bodies. (1 Corinthians 6:19-20). At Whitefield, we consider movement, fresh air, and athletic pursuits essential to forming the whole person as one who cares for their body, cares for creation, and cares for their teammates.
