The Little Gym
our story
For children ages 4 months to 12 years (and their parents), The Little Gym gymnastics programs help children learn and grow through movement and imaginative play.
About us
A History
of Serious Fun
An innovative educator, musician, and kinesiologist, The Little Gym founder Robin Wes envisioned a nurturing place where children could explore their physical development, while also growing socially, emotionally, and intellectually.
He opened the first The Little Gym in 1976 in Bellevue, Washington, and infused those early classes with the same positive, non-competitive spirit that characterizes us today. Over forty-five years later, children in more than 300 locations worldwide experience the benefits and SERIOUS FUN of The Little Gym.
What is Three-Dimensional Learning?
Our environment is fun, but our purpose is serious. That’s why we embrace a proprietary philosophy called Three-Dimensional Learning, in which physical activity is a conduit for nurturing your whole child. The Three-Dimensional Learning approach to skill development means that every class we offer fosters growth in three holistic dimensions—Get Moving, Brain Boost, and Citizen Kid.
Get Moving
Developing flexibility, strength, balance, and coordination through varied physical activities and gymnastics skills.
Brain Boost
Citizen Kid
Promoting sharing, teamwork, cooperation, and leadership through spending time with friends and peers.

My son loves the Little Gym! He has so much fun and has been learning from going consistently once a week. All the teachers are wonderful and there is a variety of different activities and moves they learn each week.
Jen McCalister
Our daughter has been going there since she was 10 months old and we were in class with her. She is now almost 4 and is in class all on her own.
Ashley Knight
Our little guy started Little Gym at the 10 month old minimum and is now nearing 3 years old. I truly believe he is as agile, adventurous, and confident as he is today because of Little Gym.
