The Little Gym

We loved our years at Little Gym south! My son went from age 3 – 7 and my daughter was enrolled before she was even born! We are now at the location in Morgan Hill which is great in its own way but will never be the same as the experience we had here.

Took my son to his first gymnastics class yesterday, he loved it! The facility is nice, the staff is caring and pleasant, really into their kids and what they do. There’s a nice viewing area for the parents to watch the class. the class was very appropriate to the kids abilities, there were 3 instructors to the class of about 20 kids. My son was beaming with excitement, what a great feeling!
Looking forward to taking him every week, happy to find a solid place. Highly recommended!

This place is amazing, the staff is always helpful, whether it’s lending a hand (I have twins) or working with our schedule. My family loves Little Gym

Awesome place … wonderful teachers who enjoy as they teach !!! My 5 year old just loves it !!! He looks forward to each and every class … in-​fact he is the one who reminds me on the days his classes are :) The teachers love what they do and kids enjoy while learning to flex themselves. I see all kids (not just mine) smiling all the time in class. Lot of participation in these classes. The folks here encourage the kids to learn new things, spend some more time with them if a kid is lagging and try to spark interest so a kid is encouraged to try more challenging things on their own in each and every class. They also have a great makeup policy where in if you miss a class you can reschedule to any other class (it does not have to be the same class that your child is currently enrolled in). Love the little Gym of South San Jose!

The quality of this place lies entirely with its teachers. Amazing. We have been privileged to have many of them over the past 4 years with both of our kids. The instructors do their best to make each child feel strong and confident.

We have had a great experience at Little Gym. Mr. Kyle is outstanding at what he does. He has a great attitude, is patient, and teaches the kids a wide range of activities. The facilities are clean and organized. We are very happy here.

I brought my daughter here years ago and now it’s my sons turn! We love how warm and friendly everyone is and we have so much fun in miss Michelle’s class! She’s so great with my little guy!

My kids love this place. All the instructors are very friendly but still professional. Ms. Michelle is great with the kids and my little one and older son love her :)

I was looking for a gym for a while for my 3 year old daughter. I called and talked to Michelle, who was great! We set up a trial class, and the minute we walked out of the trial I knew this was where she needed to be. Not only are the teachers kind, gentle and wonderful, they take time with each child to make sure they get the instructions as well as follow through with the activity. My daughter loves Mr. Dave and Miss Amy. I love every aspect of it. Not only is my daughter learning gymnastics, she is learning to follow directions, to wait her turn, to share, different exercises every week, listening, and so much more! My daughter talks about her class all week literally until the night before her next class!

I’m a nanny and the kids I take care of absolutely love Little Gym! All the teachers are fabulous but we found out Miss Michelle was here and switched from Stevens Creek because she’s simply the best! WE LOVE THE LITTLE GYM!

Brought my son here when he was 4months and LOVED it! Amazing place with AMAZING teachers… All of them are great! He is now almost 5 and LOVES IT! The more classes the better for our little guy! Sports, Karate, Dance and more!

I have my children going there for the last couple years — it’s definitely fun for the children and they have good programs! All the instructors are awesome, funny and patient, if I have to pick a couple I would like to recognize mr. Kyle, ms Perry and ms. Naomi. The have good program for my son, who’s simply active and wanting to run around all day long, and also a good program for my daughter who wanna be more skillful with her cartwheel and back hand spring.

Great place if you don’t mind being treated terribly. We had the worst experience with the older man here who was incredibly rude to us in front of other customers. Given some of the poor reviews, I doubt that we’ll see a refund for the $ 400 in classes we are now not taking due to the terrible experience here.

The little gym try to over charge me when my baby hasn’t even started her gymnastic yet. Let alone took my first payment back in April never even update the status of what’s going on with the summer session. Had to leave them two voice messages and they don’t even reply. And last Friday, when they finally decide to return my message, first thing they ask after searching up my account is for the next payment? I canceled with them got a refund which they say will take up to 3 – 6 weeks”. After I got off the phone with the little gym I was pretty upset with whole thing, I had to find another place ASAP.
1. I don’t like the fact they made us wait three whole months for nothing.
2. I don’t like how they charge me $ 148.00 and not update anything prior to the class, which was suppose to be on August 17^th, let alone calling back and telling my payment is due?
3. Never even ask if I wanted to tour the place or offered one free try out.
4. I would never recommend anyone here with this saddest poorest customer service.
5. We could’ve been else where this whole time waiting for you guys. You guys had us wait for nothing.
IMPORTANT: We are now enrolled else where, with better affordable price, AMAZING amazing amazing customer service. Very friendly teachers, and no need to enroll ONE WHOLE YEAR. You can do month and month or membership. And they don’t try to hustle you like the little gym, take your money in 4 months in advanced, what place does that? Our new gymnastic deserves 5 stars.
Thank you guys for having us cancel with you, cause now my daughter is happy where we are she loves her teacher, and that’s what makes the whole thing worth it!

The staff is awesome, very friendly and great with the kids. Their new location is nice and spacious. My 7 year old son loves it and always has a great time. Two thumbs up!

I’m really disappointed with the little gym. I the entire session of classes for about $ 400 and was told at the time of doing so that I could cancel if it did not work out for my daughter and receive a full refund. Our schedule changed and I did need to cancel after one session. I canceled in person and was told someone would be following up to «get more information» which I felt was odd given that I provided all the information they needed to cancel and did not need as much information to purchase the package. When I hadn’t heard from anyone a week later I called and left several messages on different days. Finally about two weeks later I was able to get a hold of someone on the phone and she assured me that my refund would be processed ASAP.
This did not happen and here I am a month later with a $ 400 charge on my credit card. Again after several unanswered phone calls Yesterday and today had no option but to initiate a dispute through my credit card company for the full amount. Maybe after the credit card company contacts them I will hear from them. I certainly hope so.
The disappointing part is that we were members in the past when my younger daughter went through their program back when they were in their old location. Customer service was much more responsive back then. Since they have moved to their new location I find their customer service to be horrendous. If you notice, when you call no one ever answers the phone and apparently they don’t have it together enough to return calls.
Bottom line: beware of the business practices of this place. What they are putting me through is completely unacceptable.

We’ve been going to The Little Gym and really enjoy it. This staff is great and supportive of all the kids. Every instructor has a lot of enthusiasm. The atmosphere is a bit more relaxed compared to some of the larger gyms which are more set up to develop children into gymnasts. The Little Gym works to balance both gymnastics skills and fun.
Besides the regular classes, The Little Gym offers seasonal events during the summer break and winter holidays such as themed half-​day camps. The periodic Parental Survival Nights evening sessions give parents a chance to have some free time.
I definitely recommend trying a drop-​in session of there’s space to try it out.

My three yr old had her first dance class (tap, ballet, and free gym) yesterday. Staff is super nice and they have an awesome way with kids, focus on all of them. Definitely looking forward to the gymnastics class.
Will update my review
:)

I think The Little Gym is PURE AWESOME.
My 6 year old is always looking forward to her Friday lesson, which is 30min of gym time which teaches them basic gymnastic and coordination skills and 30min of dance, with intro to jazz/​tap and ballet.
To put it straight: every activity is age appropriate, so if you’re looking for a nazi-​type of dance teacher for your 5÷6÷7 year old, who screams, criticizes and nitpicks — this place is NOT for you. Why on earth people would want to take the fun out of gymnastics and dance and put their kids in a bootcamp-​like setting instead, I don’t know. but to each their own.
The Little Gym is all about instilling confidence, making the activity fun and making sure that the child wants to stick to going to classes long term. I know for a fact instruction is likely to get more thorough for older kids, but at this point, it’s just right. It’s also about pushing the child –very– gently and getting them to do things that are mildly out of their comfort zone, but –always– making the child’s safety a priority.
The teachers are fantastic with kids, it’s blatantly obvious that all the staff adore kids and love what they do, they’re always so welcoming and happy to see the kids, even though I’m sure their job is challenging and it’s hard to always have a smile on your face. but nevertheless, they manage.
I also absolutely love their monthly ‘Parent Survival’ night, the children are doing structured activities and there is proper adult supervision, unlike Kid’s Park, which is more like a ‘Lord Of The Flies’ survival of the fittest type of venue (horrible experience there 2 years ago btw, haven’t been back since, children do horrible things to each other in closed spaces, to cut the story short). The Little Gym staff always has the kids occupied and doing something, which is key for them to stay out of trouble. Last PSN though, my husband and I were running 10 min late for pick up time, I called Mr Ernie, and he told me not to worry, and was very understanding (worst traffic ever coming out of a parking lot on Santana Row).
Another fantastic thing is their Winter Camp that we attended, can’t wait to see what they’ll do for Summer camps, but I know that we’ll be enrolling, and also taking on at least one extra class for summer time.
So happy to have found this Little Gym, I’m not sure about what other locations are like, but this particular one is gold as are the staff working there.

Love the teachers there!
I have to give 3 stars cause we can’t have make-​up classes for my kids if we don’t «enroll» for the new class hmmm
