5/11/2026 update: My son has been coming here for about a year and absolutely LOVES it. The coaches are great. Coach Reese is his FAVORITE ❤️ My son is VERY energetic, active, and sassy and she is amazing with him. We just held his birthday party there and it was great. Zero stress for me, just had to show up and be present. The kids all had a blast. Highly recommend the little gym as both a member and a party destination. 6/2025: Great experience! My one year loved exploring the mats! They incorporated a ton of fun songs and short activities for the little to keep them engaged and happy! He had a great time in the birds class and meeting new friends!

We do weekly classes and have attended a read move and groove and an open gym. We also had my daughter’s 3rd birthday here and they made her feel SO special. We really love having this amenity for more age based gymnastics learning. All of the teachers are great but we especially love Coach Morgan and Coach Amanda for their patience and funding the best ways to redirect when maybe they get a little distracted. Our daughter looks forward to class every week because the lesson plans and the gym layout changes weekly. Highly recommend!

Little Gym has been awesome for my two year old. He loves exploring, trying new things, and a class that’s his own (he sits through lots of older brother’s sports). Coach Rachel is amazing and is so kind and supportive. Everyone cheers for Little Gym days!

We love The Little Gym. For a large class, the learning and routines still feel very individualized. The coaches are very nice, helpful, respectful, and fun. They’re so personable. Coach Steve is my favorite. As a retired youth counselor, he also goes above and beyond by helping us with achieving personal goals like overcoming shyness and stage fright.

The Little Gym is a fun place for fostering confidence, enjoyment, and physical activity among children of all ages! By integrating music, exploration, and various skills on a weekly basis, they create an engaging atmosphere where kids can learn and play. The coaching staff is highly skilled in working with kids, with Coach Morgan being our favorite for her energetic and cheerful approach!

Our daughter Juni loves Little Gym and we do as well! Everyone who works at LG is so welcoming and they really make an effort to ensure that everyone is included. Coach Rachel is a gem! She always has such a positive and encouraging attitude. Our daughter is such an explorer and she often deviates from the group. This is never a problem at LG where the emphasis is on having fun while being safe. Coach Rachel, as well as Coaches Andrea and Steve, make the extra effort to encourage students to participate and learn new things. LG isn’t just about physical activity, but is also an opportunity to learn numbers, sign language, and teamwork. I can’t say enough wonderful things about the LG Johnston location.
