The Little Gym of Fort Collins/Timnath is a nurturing environment where children aged 4 months to 12 years learn and grow through movement-based learning and imaginative play. Founded by Robin Wes in 1976, The Little Gym focuses on developing the whole child physically, socially, emotionally, and intellectually. With over 300 locations worldwide, The Little Gym offers programs that promote flexibility, strength, balance, coordination, teamwork, cooperation, and leadership skills.
At The Little Gym, children progress from Parent/Child classes for infants to toddlers, to Preschool Gymnastics for 3-6-year-olds, and on to classes for 6-12-year-olds. The gym’s philosophy of Three-Dimensional Learning emphasizes physical activity as a conduit for nurturing children’s holistic development in the dimensions of Get Moving, Brain Boost, and Citizen Kid. Through varied physical activities and gymnastics skills, children build confidence, skills, and social connections in a supportive and positive community.
The Little Gym offers a range of programs, including dance classes for children aged 3-12, birthday party adventures featuring popular characters like Llama Llama and The Very Hungry Caterpillar, and a philanthropic initiative called Big Hearts that aims to positively impact communities. Parents rave about the engaging and supportive instructors, the fun and educational environment, and the growth they witness in their children as they progress through the gym’s programs. The Little Gym is where children have serious fun while developing essential physical, social, and emotional skills for a bright future.
