Everyday members of My First Gym are discovering fun ways to get active!

Children's activities. The innovative programs offer classes for children 6 weeks to 13 years old:

Fitness classes. Children's age: 7 - 13 years - Energizers club. Energizers will participate in cardio, muscle strengthening and flexibility exercises. They will learn about the role of their muscles and how to strengthen them.
This program is 3 times a week for eight weeks. It combines a 4-station circuit training course, fast paced games, basic step aerobics, kick boxing skills and yoga – all while focusing on keeping the children’s heart rate increased but at a safe cardiovascular pace.

Dance. Children's age: 2.5 - 14 years. Children learn the appropriate steps for their age in a fun and creative atmosphere. This class will also help them develop body awareness, loco-motor-skills, strength, and flexibility while learning rhythm, stimulate imagination and improving your child’s confidence.
30-45 min class.

Martial arts. Children's age: 3.5 to 14 years old - Stars karate. The Stars karate program is designed for ages 3.5 to 4.5years. This class allows children to learn the basic karate moves and disciplines while working on their self-confidence. The Stars karate approach is non-competitive and nurturing as we understand children can be sensitive and nervous at this transitioning age.

Independent gym. Children's age: 3.5 to 13 years - Stars club. Stars Club is the first independent class. At this momentous age, children are becoming more independent and self-aware. This is a perfect age for transitioning children and reassuring them that “mommy will come back soon”. Stars Club focuses on building your child’s language development, motor skills, flexibility and agility through gym and yoga activities. My First Gym's staff practices positive reinforcement that helps your child build his/her confidence and self-image. Stars Club is 1 hour of fun, where students develop their communication, strength, confidence, agility and coordination with yoga, games, rides, team building activities and more.

Parent participation. Childrsn's age: 6 weeks to 3.5 years - Baby babblers. At My First Gym we have developed a program for our newest and smallest members designed around their visual, audible and spatial needs. Your baby will be introduced to music, movement and rhythm in a slow and nurturing way. In this 45 minute class your baby will sing songs, experience new stimuli through rides and baby friendly games. We will also introduce parents to a new sign language motion and baby questions and answer topic each week.
