as a step before that, I'd say that you need to assess your child's physical development and make sure that you're looking for the right kind of training. there are 7th graders who are shaving and 10th graders just starting puberty.

Well, yes, a good trainer will do that assessment. Some kids should only start with body weight stuff. Pushups, yoga type moves etc. All kids can benefit from learning how to run correctly, especially deceleration and change of direction stuff

The suggestion of finding a trainer is not just about development, either, it’s just as much about injury prevention and developing confidence.
