Physical Education Resources For Families

UCLA Health Sound Body Sound Mind is dedicated to supporting physical education in a hands-on, holistic approach. To assist our community, we have compiled physical education, health, nutrition and wellness related resources that support the whole child.

Physical education provides a unique opportunity for children and adolescents to develop healthy behaviors necessary for human development. Regular exercise can help prevent illnesses and diseases, reduce stress, anxiety and depression and improve academic outcomes. PE teaches much more than how to throw and catch a ball. It teaches social and team building skills, conflict resolution, self-regulation, builds confidence and self-esteem and best of all, its fun! Explore below for a multitude of offerings.
