About Us

A Safe, Structured Place Where Children Thrive

Dorise-Brown Fitness & Learning Academy blends early learning with movement, emotional support, and family-centered care. We believe children learn best when they feel safe, loved, and guided with consistency.

Our Story

After serving over 30 years in the Ohio prison system, Dorise Brown witnessed the impact of poor or missing early childhood education.

She founded this academy to change that cycle — creating a place where children receive the structure, nurturing, and learning foundation they need early in life.

“We plant seeds of hope early so children grow into their full potential.”
