The Little Gym

Staff is so friendly and professional. They are wonderful with the kids. Signing up for the summer classes and I can’t wait. I know my 1 year will benefit greatly from them.

This place is soooo neat! My only complaint, is that I didn’t know about it sooner! Which is my own fault, of course. lol. Anyways… the staff and teachers are so great and welcoming. My son just turned 2 and is doing the gymnastics class, and he had the best time. I think it’s especially great for him to be around so many other kids! He is still in an at-​home daycare, and therefore hasn’t seen so many tots at one time, in one place!
The class is structured in such a fun way that not only is great for my tot, but brought me a lot of joy as well. It’s great to see all of the parents and kids coming together to laugh, play and exercise! I definitely recommend!!!

My 2 daughters (3 and 15 months) both love this place. It’s clean, the instructors are great, the stuff is very friendly and flexible. I highly recommend this place!

My daughter loves this place more than Wildfire. Staffs are really and know the kids.

We started taking our daughter here when she was about 15 months old. She absolutely loves coming to class and even wants to sing some of the songs or do the actions when we are at home. I can’t believe how much I have seen her accomplish just in the last few months. The Little Gym is a great, safe place for little ones to explore, climb around, tumble and play with other kids. The teachers are fantastic, our class is currently with miss Julia and our daughter loves her.

The little gym is great! Kids always have a great time there and the teachers are so personable and loving. They treat their customers like friends and family. Although they are not a competitive gymnastics place they do focus on teaching gymnastics right but without the added pressure of a competitive gym. Once you get into the grade-​school level classes they also start focusing more on harder gymnastics skills.
The advanced gymnastics class called twister/​aerials is great!

Just had a birthday at the Little Gym of Tustin and it was TERRIFIC! They’re well organized, kind, clean, helpful, attentive, fun, and truly try their best to make sure the kids have a good time! They take care of everything and make sure your party goes off without a hitch without making you feel like they’re just moving the group from party to party. I can’t recommend them enough. After organizing enough parties for my daughter for the past 3 years, this place is head and shoulders above them all. Kudos to the staff of the Little Gym (Ms. Julia and Ms. Haley)!

I absolutely love bringing my daughter here!!! My daughter is 3 years old and she’s in ballet/​tap/​gymnastics. The instructors, Miss Julia and Miss Jillian, are amazing!!! They are so patient and give all the girls so much attention!!! Honestly I would recommend this to anyone looking for a gym for their little one!

Tried one class that was supposed to be for kids up to 3 years old. The teacher allowed several kids who were clearly way over 3 (4+) to be in the class. She said she would make them ‘helpers”, but they did everything the rest of the kids did. During ball time, on of the older kids who was sprinting and a head taller collided with my child causing a welt on my child’s head. I understand that accidents happen, but we aren’t at the park or playground. A class that is supposed to be safe for a 20 month old should be designed to be age appropriate, right? I emailed the location expressing my concern. That was weeks ago and I never even received a reply. What a joke. Needless to say, will never return.

We love The Little Gym & would highly recommend it! The teachers are super friendly and modify the exercises for your lil’ one, no matter what their age. I started bringing my son at 7 months old. It can be a little overwhelming at first, but after a couple sessions, he began to love it and thrive! They have very child-​friendly versions of real gymnastics objects (balance beam, bars, rings, «trampoline», etc.) and the kids learn a new skill every week. I love it as a parent because I get to chat with the other parents. It’s a great social event every week for parents and kids alike!

I’ve been to a few kids parties at this location. The parties are on the weekends and they close the gym just for your party. The kids have their fun interactive activities individually or you can help them out. 30 – 45 minutes in each room depending on what your needs. The staff is great with kids, I mean they should be, but they really are!
Tip for my single friends, do yourself a favor & have your little one’s bdays at these locations! Makes it super easy for you. In and out within 2 – 3 hours and you avoid the entertaining, hassle of set up and clean up. Best party’s for 2 – 6 year olds. They will have fun!

Took my son here for his first gym class ever! He loves it, especially the parallel bars that he could walk by holding onto them! It is clean, instructors r amazing ! If it is closer to my home, i would get a membership here. And i like the apparatus there which r really like the mini version of those gymnastics ones, instead of a slide or tunnel which u can also find in any park :)

My daughter has been attending weekly beginners gymnastics classes here for 5 months. She LOVES it! The staff is always so friendly, they must love what they do because they are always so upbeat and happy to see the kids — EVERY week! They get the kids moving!
There is typically one instructor in the beginning for stretching and warm ups, then a second instructor joins to split into 2 teams in the second part of the session. It allows more one on one time with the students and instructors. They usually end the session with a fun activity or game. In the last few minutes of class, one of the instructors comes out to brief the parents on what the class worked on that day, how they did, and what they need to improve on (if anything).
We love The Little Gym!

my kids have been attending classes for about 3 years, they LOVE it! I love it! Every semester is developed around a curriculum designed to challenge. They have learned so much and look forward to class every week. Each hour is an intense work out and they come out sweaty and tired. The staff is knowledgeable and attentive to all students. They also do a good job of keeping parents informed about progress and challenges.

Both my kids has taken classes here and they love this place. The staff are super nice and the classes are fun and safe for little kids who likes to explore and be little independent.
I also like that if you need to reschedule your class there is no problem and you get a make up class that has the same quality as your regular. At some gyms you get a make up class that has way less quality and has lower skill level.
The summer camps are also super fun and great.

We took our 3yo as he was having difficulties with other kids. Our experience here has opened him up to interacting with kids if various ages. The instructors are awesome and get along well with easy as well add troublesome kids (like mine).

Both of my kids take classes at The Little Gym. My daughter (2 years old) was extremely shy when we began going there a year ago. With the help of the teachers at the gym she has overcome her shyness and is now very confident. Her coordination has also grown a great deal because of the lessons in each class.
My son (7 years old) takes classes there because gymnastics is the first and only sport he’s ever shown enthusiasm for. His physical coordination, strength and agility has grown measurably during his year at the gym.
What I love the most about this place however, are the teachers. Each one is patient, kind and happy. My kids have built great relationships with each one and I never feel like either of my kids gets lost in the crowd.
The facility is always immaculate. I’ve seen the ladies there cleaning repeatedly throughout the day. The equipment is well-​maintained and the bathrooms are clean. Overall, I am very happy with the experience our family has had at this gym. I highly recommend them.

We’ve been wanting to put our daughter in some sort of class to get her socially acclimated, but the cost is a bitter pill to swallow. What if my she didn’t like it? What if she doesn’t do well in a group setting? Many places offer the first intro class for free, but what if the novelty wore off after the first class?
We were excited when the Little Gym offered a Groupon for four classes for $ 25. Even if our daughter didn’t like it anymore, $ 25 is no big deal. It wasn’t a huge commitment and it’s also long enough to get a real taste for the class.
We got there a little early to sign in. The waiting area has a big salt water fish tank and a corner with a couple buckets of toys for the kids to play with. It was cute seeing my daughter mingle and play with the other kids. She also enjoyed checking out the fish. There are little cubby holes for you to store your belongings and shoes. No socks and shoes for the kids, but socks are ok for adults.
My daughter really enjoyed the class — she ran around, played with musical instruments, danced to music, stomped around in a circle, played with a huge parachute, chased bubbles, threw around balls, jumped, climbed and rolled. The instructor was super nice and my daughter was open to having the instructor help her.
We’ve only been to one class but are definitely looking forward to the subsequent classes. The only downside for us is that we are 15 miles away so it’s a bit of a drive. Overall, I would definitely check this place out if you have little ones or even big ones!

I spent the first 7 years of my son’s life trying to find a sport he enjoyed. He did soccer, baseball, basketball, and tae kwon doe; yet none of these seemed to capture his interest. Mainly because he lacked some coordination and basic skills for him to feel confident in any outdoor activity.
We started going to The Little Gym about a year ago and within a couple of weeks, my husband and I saw remarkable improvement! He also loves going and is the highlight of his week. It also helps with the amazing staff that work so well with my son as well as all of the other children. We even celebrated his 8^th Birthday there and were highly impressed with how everything ran so smoothly and the kids just LOVED it… thanks to impressive staff!
My son now has built the confindence to enjoy more outdoor play with his friends instead of reverting to video games and television ;-)

Big is always better? This gym is small.
Not only is this gym small. They brag about it. They even go so far as calling it «The Little Gym.» Funny, because I have a little friend who calls it little gym for her own reasons.
Three-​year-​olds can drive a person nuts. They have so much energy and never seem to run out of gas. The best way to handle this, in my opinion, is to find constructive means for them to use the energy.
So, I enrolled her in the city sponsored courses of dance and gymnastics. The gymnastics was held in the corner of a full size gym. While my little liked the equipment, flipping, and rolling, she would express her dislike in the gym itself. I looked for at three other private gyms in the local area. They were the «bigger» gyms.
So, this was my fourth stop. She loved it and kept calling it the «little gym.» Funny. After watching one of the classes they offered one free trial session. It was a slam dunk. She talked about it the whole week. She talked about the equipment, the gymnastics itself, and even the teachers. This gym offers many classes including dance, karate, and even a summer camp.
So, while this gym maybe smaller, they are big in heart, care, concern, and giving individualized attention. As far as little girls go, and the area, this gym is as good as it gets.
The «Little Gym»… Another reason the OC is the best place to live!
