With over 45 years of experience and more than 300 locations worldwide, The Little Gym is committed to providing children with the skills and confidence needed at each stage of childhood.
At The Little Gym, children engage in programs that focus on Three-Dimensional Learning, emphasizing physical activity as a means to nurture the whole child. Through activities that promote flexibility, strength, balance, coordination, teamwork, cooperation, and leadership, children develop essential skills while having serious fun.

With a philosophy centered on fostering growth in three dimensions – Get Moving, Brain Boost, and Citizen Kid – The Little Gym aims to enhance children’s physical abilities, cognitive functions, and social-emotional skills. Through partnerships with Penguin Young Readers for themed birthday adventures and a commitment to philanthropy through the Big Hearts program, The Little Gym is dedicated to positively impacting communities and ensuring a safe and healthy environment for children to thrive and grow.
