EDIT: My now 2 year 3 month old still loves every week we spend with our little friends and wonderful teachers at the Little Gym! We both look forward to class so much!!My 8 month old loves stretching, flipping, dancing and trying all the fun things in our Bugs class. I immediately felt welcome and comfortable here. Meeting other families is a great experience for both me and baby. TLG balances structure and free time well and we love going with the flow. Highly recommend!

This place has gone downhill. Some team members are still excellent, unfortunately most classes are ran by a person that is bad with children. Smiles and is friendly, but ultimately doesn't know what to do with kids if they do anything outside of the class plan. I have tried to speak to the owner, but when emailing back they ignored the problem, tried to claim it was something else. Before the interaction, I had told a friend I would go back if it got back on track. After the interaction with the owner, I will not. I have kept my original review attached, do people know it can be amazing. It just isn't right now. We spent a lot of money each month to have a kid that didn't want to go and didn't like to join in because of the person teaching, when I did get them to go. It wasn't an isolated incident and my if is not the only child with the exact problem.We LOVE The Little Gym. The staff are very friendly, great with kids and parents alike. We have a 3yo tjat does class and camps here, it is really giving him a sense of confidence and.helping him to be independent. As for Coronavirus, they are very clean.and very conscious of making this a safe space for everyone. Cannot recommend it enough.

Coming to these classes has been one of the best decisions I've made. My toddler son is extremely shy and very wary of strangers. Within a few weeks of coming he started to warm up and now he's going up to other parents and the teacher and interacting! It's definitely starting to affect how he reacts to strangers not at the gym, and that is everything I could've hoped for.

Signing my daughter up for The Little gym has been the best thing I could do for her. She's learning so many life lessons as well as physical work. The staff are amazing they are great with all the kids and I would definitely give them a referral for other families to use them.

Our children have gotten so much out of their time at TLG. The staff is absolutely wonderful with them. Our kids always look forward to their weekly class. The classes are well suited for all abilities. The facility is well equipped, safe, and in perfect view of the reception area where parents can watch the fun. TLG is highly recommended!

My little gym in Kalamazoo has been amazing for both our little one and our family. Having an outlet for our child's play and socialization has been great. All of the teachers have gone above and beyond to bond with and include our child. He loves when we tell him we're going to gym class!

My daughter loves it! Although she just started, she cant wait for her Saturday gymnastics class! The teachers are great , full of energy, patience and a clear understanding of how to deal with the kids! Watching, I can tell they truly enjoy their job! Safety and keeping germs away are practiced as well. They offer different classes, dance, tumbling etc.

This gym is amazing! The instructors are wonderful with the kids and so kind. They not only do gymnastics but help teach kids other skills and incorporate counting, addition and subtraction in some activities. I could not have picked a better gym for my daughter. She absolutely loves it there!

The Little Gym has been great for my toddler twins! I love that the space is designed for little ones so they can have free reign to explore and practice. The coaches are incredible, especially Will & Cassidy. My kids talk about them all week before we head back to class. They have really progressed in their skills and confidence in the gym over the last year or so. Highly recommend!
