Jeff Freeman has always had a love of sports. He has participated in many sports on a competitive level and enjoys all sports recreationally. Although his professional career began in banking immediately following college, he always had a goal to make his hobby of sports his career. The Little Gym gave him the opportunity to do this. Jeff has been an owner/director at The Little Gym of Waldwick, Scarsdale and Upper West Side for over 15 years. Ian Axelrod has been the owner and director of The Little Gym of Greenvale, Scarsdale and Upper West Side New York for over 16 years. Ian started teaching gymnastics in various preschools and day camps throughout the Long Island area in 1993. In 1995, he opened his first gym. Ian’s love for physical development dates back to his experiences in sleep away camp where he was introduced to many different sports. He later continued working with children as a counselor and group leader.
