Gymnastics That Builds Champions

Children are placed in classes based on their age and gymnastics skill level — and classes are segmented to allow for gender-specific disciplines. Our Grade School programme isn't about winning or rankings. It's about personal growth, building athletic confidence, and discovering what each child is truly capable of.

Our instructors are trained to provide individualised instruction so every child feels challenged and successful at whatever level they're at — whether that's their first class or their hundredth.

Grade School Classes Focus On

Every class is built around three developmental pillars — physical performance, cognitive growth and social character.

Get Moving
Developing the physical skills of a true gymnast — balance, flexibility, agility and power through age-appropriate and progressively more demanding activities.

🎯
Brain Boost
Gymnastics is as much mental as physical. Classes build concentration, problem solving and the ability to follow complex, multi-step instructions — all skills vital for school success.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you decide which level my child goes into? +
Children are placed based on both their age and their current gymnastics skill level. When you book a free trial class, our coaches will assess your child in person during the session and place them in the most appropriate level. We'll always communicate our recommendation to you before enrolment.
Is it competitive? Will my child be compared to others? +
Never. The Little Gym is proudly non-competitive. We celebrate every child's personal progress — not their ranking compared to others. There are no competitions, no league tables, and no pressure. Just positive coaches, plenty of high-fives, and genuine skill development.
What gymnastics equipment do you use? +
Our Grade School classes use professional-grade gymnastics equipment including bars, beams, floor areas, vaults and tumble tracks. All equipment is regularly inspected and maintained to the highest safety standards. Gender-specific disciplines mean boys and girls may work on different apparatus.
How often should my child attend classes? +
Once a week is the standard for most families and delivers noticeable results. For children who want to accelerate their skill development, attending twice a week is welcome. Our coaches will guide you on the ideal frequency based on your child's goals.
When does a child move from Intermediate to Advanced? +
Our coaches monitor each child's progress continuously. When a child consistently demonstrates mastery of their current level's skills and is ready for greater challenges, we'll recommend advancement. This is always discussed with parents — never done without your knowledge.
My child just turned 6 — should they start at Beginner? +
Most children starting at 6 begin at Beginner level, especially if they're new to gymnastics. However, if your child has been in our Pre-K programme and already has foundational skills, our coaches may recommend a more advanced starting point. The free trial class is the best way to assess the right fit.
