The Little Gym introduces children between the ages of 4 months and 12 years to physical activity featuring a gymnastics-based non-competitive curriculum. Our program allows children to progress at their own pace, developing their confidence as they develop their skills. Children are encouraged to try their best, not be the best. This philosophy has served The Little Gym and its members well. After decades of research and hands-on experience, we now set the standard for high-quality children’s development programs.
L – Lead -we lead & we create leaders at every level of our company and in our communities
E – Execute- we execute successful programs
A – Aspire-we aspire to grow, adapt and be better as we constantly innovate
R – Respect-we respect each other in how we communicate and interact
N – Nurture-we assume positive intentions and nurture each other
Fun, physical activity is at the core The Little Gym's program. Children build flexibility and strength, develop balance and coordination, and improve their agility, rhythm and overall fitness.
Through all programs, children foster listening skills, sustained concentration, creative expression and problem-solving. These skills help prepare little ones for school and reinforce lessons learned by school-age children.
With physical activity as the framework, children learn life skills like sharing, working in a group, cooperation and leadership – all valuable tools to help them grow into well-adjusted, well-rounded citizens of their world.
Success comes in many forms: building a financially rewarding business, being your own boss, spending more time with family, helping local children grow and develop, or providing employment and growth opportunities to team members. No matter which might be most important to you, one thing is true: Owning your own The Little Gym will be a life-changing experience.
