Parent and child classes - what can I expect?

Our parent and child gymnastic classes are aimed at 18 months - 3 year olds and are a fantastic way for you to interact with your child in a fun, yet structured way. Expect energy, action and plenty of enthusiasm for you and your child!

Why not book a free trial session before signing up to Gym-a-Roo membership?

What is the format of the class?

Each class starts with a coach-led warm-up to get everyone going, using hand apparatus and a sing song with actions that the children quickly learn.

The class is then split into small groups and children and parents visit each activity station. The stations are designed as small circuits with different start points throughout to ensure that the children are always active and moving - we don’t expect them to sit still and wait their turn for long!

A coach is on hand at each station to guide you through the activities for you to then work through with your child.

The class finishes with a cool-down song and a well-earned sticker!

How long does each class last?

Each class runs for 40 minutes.

What should my child wear?

Please ensure your child is wearing loose fitting, comfortable clothes - all members will be given a special Gym-a-Roos T-shirt to wear to each class once the joining fee has been paid.

Can I bring siblings along?

If siblings are in the same age bracket, we offer discounts for them to join in the class as well. However, if you have younger children you’re more than welcome to bring them along. We understand that it can be tricky juggling more than one child at a time, so we have a safe area for babies to play with age-appropriate toys, whilst your older child navigates the gymnastic equipment.
