The Little Gym of Alexandria at Huntley Meadows

My son loves this place and it's been great to see him develop skills as he advances. He has learned following directions, listening, motor skills, problem solving, and socializing. The owner of this particular location is really dedicated and runs the classes with enthusiasm.

My daughters have been taking classes for about a year now and it’s been a great experience for them! The staff is fantastic! Everyone is excellent with the kids and very responsive to any questions or requests we have. Mr. Rob, Ms. Avery, and Mr. Michael are the best!!

Rob and his team hosted a wonderful party for my daughter's 5th birthday. They did an excellent job decorating and incorporating the party's theme into the gym class. The kids all had a great time. Would highly recommend!

My daughter has been taking classes at The Little Gym for over a year now, and it's been such a bright spot for our family during these crazy times. The instructors are attentive, kind, and knowledgeable, and make sure the kids have tons of fun. My daughter absolutely LOVES her classes there and all of the instructors!

This Little Gym is such a GEM!! We have been coming here since our son was 12 months, he is now 3 years old and absolutely loves this place - can’t wait for his baby brother to join the fun too!! Rob the manager is just incredible with kids and he sets up a lot of awesome challenges and age appropriate activities for them. The rest of the crew is also fantastic and truly committed to the well being of the kids and their families - we particularly enjoyed our interactions with Miss Karen and Michael :) If you are looking for a safe, clean and fun place for your kids to play, build confidence and make friends - search no further, this is the place for you!!

Thank you so much for having Corinne join the class last night. She had a great time and we are just trying to work out our schedule to see which class time works best.Your staff is amazing and I really appreciated how engaged all of the children were and how caring all of your staff members are. In particular, I wanted to thank you all for your patience and kindness with Corey who is on the spectrum and struggles sometimes with social interaction.I wanted to raise one concern about a parent who had confronted me about Corey and stated that he grabbed her child “by the neck” when she took a lego piece. She had one boy who was taking part in the class and another younger child with her. I immediately apologized to her and went to talk to Corey and even brought Corey out to apologize. I am sure other parents also witnessed this incident. The woman did not even acknowledge this and kept glaring at me and my family (including my disabled mother) throughout the rest of the session. Strangely enough, she only approached me directly about the problem rather than speaking to your staff member who was monitoring the play area.Corey has always been raised under constant supervision and monitoring by myself, my mother, and my husband. The three of us have observed him in social settings numerous times and while he does not usually interact with other children, he has never been rough with others. Still, I gave the parent the benefit of the doubt and even came out to apologize to her and her child after speaking to Corey. She spoke about Corey as if he was a violent animal instead of a child, and she continued to glare at my family even after I had apologized profusely and even disciplined Corey about the supposed incident (which none of my family members or your staff personally witnessed).While I acknowledge that Corey struggles with social interaction, I do not personally believe that he was rough with the other child. I understand that the behavior of one parent is not the fault of your staff, but I would like to avoid choosing the same class time as this person out of fear for Corey’s safety. I am disappointed that some have so little compassion and understanding for children who are different, but this is something we have dealt with before as parents of an autistic child.We all had so much fun at the try out session despite this experience, and this does not in any way effect my opinion of your company. Your staff members were all wonderful and incredibly kind to everyone, and I really appreciated MacKenzie who was trying hard to have Corey participate in the class. We are planning to enroll Corinne in the class and we will have an answer for you by the end of this week when we work out our schedule. Thank you again to you and your wonderful staff, and hope you all have a great weekend!Best.

We've been taking our just-turned-3 year old granddaughter to the Little Gym for the past 4 months and I really believe that this is the best gift we have ever given her. Our granddaughter simply can't get enough when she's there, doesn't want to leave and has the time of her life every week. The program is focused on developing children in many ways, but to them, it's all fun. There are numerous new things to do each week, music, laughter, challenges, learning to share and be part of a group along with is lots of love and sensitivity to the needs of each child and gentle encouragement. Many of the children in these classes have been coming here since they were babies, but she was able to blend right in within a few weeks. At the end of each class, the instructor, for her, mostly Mr. Rob, goes over the various activities the children have completed and makes suggestions for things they can work on during the week.

My 14 month old daughter has been taking classes here since she was 5 months old. She has a blast every week and I am so happy to be able to help her learn and grow. The facility is great and the staff is fantastic. And many of the other kids have been going since they were babies as well....it's been so amazing to watch them all grow up!Fun for everyone and highly recommended.

Love The Little Gym at Huntley Meadows! Mr. Rob is the best. We enjoy the classes. The teachers love the children and are very supportive and interested in helping children. Our child has so much fun there, we love it. We've been going for a year here now and have all positive things to say. It is fun to watch our child learn and grow at The Little Gym.

The instructors are awesome here! They make every child feel welcome. Having a toddler I was worried the training would be too disciplined but Mr. Rob always made us and our child feel at home. Classes do not make kids feel pressured at all and our son always had a great time. If you are looking for something fun for the children you can't go wrong with any class here!
