The Little Gym

The Little Gym is a children's development franchise running non-competitive, play-based movement and gymnastics classes for kids from toddlerhood through pre-school to younger school age. Classes blend gymnastics, movement, music, and games to build gross motor skills, coordination, balance, confidence, and social skills — explicitly non-competitive, so every child progresses at their own pace. That's the main difference from open play or babysitting.

HQ owns the brand, the curriculum, and the systems, and each centre is independently owned and operated by a local franchisee who licenses the brand, gets pre- and post-opening training, lesson plans, and ongoing support. You needn't be a gymnast — HQ supplies the methodology and training. What stays on you is building and running the centre, hiring trained instructors, and enrolling and retaining children.
