    This recommendation was made verbally by a parent speaking to the KalliKids team and confirmed in writing.

    • Samantha, Mum of Olivia (8) and Alfie (6) in Hastings

      Olivia and Alfie absolutely love Kiera’s classes, they get to play various different sports games and look forward to going every week. Kiera sets the kids in her classes personal targets which really spurs them on to improve and I can honestly say their skills have come on leaps and bounds. As a teacher, Kiera is encouraging, friendly and approachable, all the children respond to her well and love all the games she plays with them.

    • Elizabeth, Mum of Two in St Leonards

      My eldest, who is usually shy, has become a lot more confident since taking Kiera’s classes and is now more willing to try new things. The classes have been great for both my children and they really look forward to going.
      Kiera’s brilliant with the kids and encourages them all to try new things whilst getting everyone involved. As a person she is very approachable and friendly and the kids love her. She gets the kids playing a variety of games including hula hooping, skipping, dodge ball and different ball sports.
      My children love going there and Kiera’s created a positive and fun atmosphere for all the children.

    • Clare, Mum of Joss (11) & Hania (7), Hastings

      Joss and Hania attended Boom Fitness in half term for two days. Kiera is extremely enthusiastic and full of energy. The best recommendation I can say is my 11 year son wanted to leave his i-pad and go back the next day! They loved the competitive side of the races and obstacle courses, trying to beat their own times, not just beating the others! They came out red faced and sweaty but thoroughly enjoyed themselves and made new friends. I think the afternoon session is a good idea in the holidays and found the sibling discount very good value.

      Fantastic as good as expected! Kids had fun, were active, all joined in happily, great leadership and assistance (Kiera Chapman and Ben). Very friendly atmosphere, good value for money something different that is fun, good feedback form other parents at the birthday party. Would have it again.

    • Amy, Mum of Bluebelle

      Boom is a fantastic club that provides children with the opportunity to exercise & keep fit whilst having fun & working as part of a team.

      Bluebelle counts down the days in between going to Boom & always leaves there a very happy bunny!

      I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this club to families, the staff are always very professional & friendly,it offers great hours (especially during the school holidays that can often be too long for the little one's) & it is great value for money.

  4. Kiera Chapman - Director

    I have set up Boom for one simple reason, I am passionate about children enjoying being active. I have worked within the sports industry for 11 years and carried out a wide range of roles, from teaching to sports development. Throughout this time I have noticed some ever growing concerns. Kids that like football, rugby, netball etc play these sports regally which is great, but what happens to the kids that don’t like a particular sport? They tend to slope away from being active all together. Every child should be active and deserves the opportunity to try new ways to be active. Boom is all about fun! Whether it’s the Saturday fun club, the holiday programme or a school session, Boom aims to enthuse and motivate children to be more active.


    I really hope that the people of Hastings/Bexhill and surrounding areas support this new programme. After all it is the responsibility of parents, schools and health professionals to play an active role in encouraging kids to step away from their computer games and get back to play! I hope you will employ the same attitude and send the kids along for some active fun with BOOM.


    I am always looking to improve the service that Boom offers and advocate partnership working so if you have any suggestions or ways in which your organisation can work with Boom please contact me direct.


    Thank you for taking the time to read about Boom
