Our Story
Who We Are at
The Little Gym
Our Philosophy of
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—Brain Boost!, Get Moving! and Citizen Kid! Read on to see how each dimension of learning helps your child grow into a well-rounded, well-adjusted super kid.
Get Moving
Developing flexibility, strength, balance, and coordination through varied physical activities
Brain Boost
Nurturing listening skills, concentration and decision-making that benefits your child well beyond the gym
Citizen Kid
Promoting sharing, teamwork, cooperation, and leadership through spending time with your kid’s friends and peers
40 Years of
Serious Fun
An innovative educator, musician and kinesiologist, 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. Forty years later, children in more than 300 locations worldwide experience the Serious Fun of The Little Gym.
