About Us
Inclusion is non-negotiable. Every student participates. Every student matters. We adapt to different needs, backgrounds, and abilities so no one gets left out or left behind.
THE HEART OF
EVERYTHING WE DO
2015
Founded in 2015 by Ms. Anda Leonard, a Master Trainer who’s goal was to address behavioral challenges and disparities among youth through a wellness-focused lens, and served over 55 schools across Southern California, Title I, BSAP-identified, and high-need campuses in LAUSD, CUSD, and multiple other school districts.
2016
2018
In 2018, Mrs. Leonard led Gil Garcetti Learning Academy—a school long unable to pass fitness assessments—through a complete transformation. That year, pregnant with her daughter, she helped the school pass for the first time in years. That’s grit. That’s leadership. That’s UFIT.
2020
UFIT became an organization of talented, like minded individuals that are passionate and experienced in the world of physical education and sports.
Since then we have assisted in increasing student attendance and engagement, particularly among Black students, English Learners, and other priority subgroups, and successfully implemented programming that integrates physical education, SEL practices in both structured sports and unstructured recess environments.
Built a diverse team of 50+ trained coaches and educators, reflecting the communities we serve and consistently praised for their cultural responsiveness, and maintained full compliance with all California education and labor requirements, including fingerprinting, HR, and reporting.
