Parent-Child Classes

We are committed to allow children to be themselves as they are and to have fun while they learn. We do not demand that children “be the best”, but we do expect them to try their best. We want children to feel secure taking risks, trying hard and making mistakes. Our philosophy is to treat children with dignity and respect, to build their confidence and self esteem and to help them grow as individuals. Every da, every class. That’s “The Little Gym Way”.

- The Little Gym

When my son was one year old, we enrolled him at The Little Gym in Alabang. Yohan attended several Parent-Child Motor Development Programs until he was three years old. My husband and I would take turns accompanying Yohan inside the gym. We enjoyed the fun development and rhythmic activities. There were also group games, tumbling, movement exploration, songs, ball play and parachute activities.

Yohan only stopped attending Little Gym classes when we enrolled him in Nursery in Nazareht School near our area. Alabang is too far from us so it was too impractical to enroll him in the The Little Gym Pre-School Program, also called Terrific Tots.

My husband and I plan to enroll him again at the gym when we can come up with a good schedule to balance Yohan’s school and extra curricular activities.
