Chip and Paula Pascarella opened The Little Gym of Shaker Heights in 2005. Having two sons of their own, they have a passion for the development of children physically as well as cognitively, emotionally, and socially. They researched several programs before realizing that The Little Gym program was the best fit for the needs of children and parents in this area. Paula serves as the Gym Director and is also on the Board at the Shaker Family Center. You may even have seen her volunteering in her sons' classrooms.

The other staff members of The Little Gym are well-qualified with backgrounds ranging from dance and sports to competitive gymnastics and cheerleading. Many of our staff members have earned bachelor's degrees and all of them are involved in ongoing training The Little Gym Way.

We are all excited to make you a part of our The Little Gym Family so come on in and see what special programs we have for your children!
