I love the little gym. My daughter has been going there since about one year old. She’s taken her first steps here, she’s said her name for the first time here, and she’s made her first friends here.
The staff are lovely. I read a review earlier about Coach Riley that really had me confused. As a mother of a child of color Coach Riley has done absolutely nothing to ever make her feel Unwelcomed or singled out. She has always ensured the group is safe, having fun, and always trying their best to improve and succeed. She includes everyone equally and when a child is upset she always makes sure to take the extra time to figure out what’s wrong and make them happy.
This goes for all of the staff at the little gym. Princess bubblegum goes above and beyond for the child and makes everyone feel like family. Ms. Amy organized a lovely wonderkids program that has really prepared my daughter for starting pre k in the fall. Kitty is running a fabulous place that is not just a business. The little gym is a community. They are a family. Maybe the prior review just isn’t used to having a close knit family or support that the little gym offers that really does promote the children’s growth.
My daughter isn’t the easiest she’s very energetic, stubborn, and very hard headed for a three year old. But they take the time to support her, see her point of view, and address her accordingly.
Shout out to all of the staff at the little gym, keep ya head up and keep doing you because yall are great. I foresee my daughter being a member of this family until she ages out.

This place is okay, but they need to address the behavior of Coach Riley. She shows bias toward children of color, gives rude responses to parents when asked, quite unprofessional. All kids deserve to be treated equally and not singled out for mistreatment. This has caused unnecessary mental stress for my child. Coach Riley lacks the patience and nurturing care required for the role

Beware of any place that doesn't let you stay in the building with your child. For summer camps they tell you to wait in your car. My daughter's instructor didn't see me there and was speaking horrible to multiple children but specifically one little boy there. I will never return here again. Protect your children.

Our daughter’s happy place! She’s been taking classes here for close to a year and she absolutely loves it! There are so many teachers in each class and they are all very well-trained and energetic! Every person here is welcoming and we love it here!

As a former member that moved away, my four year old couldn’t wait to go back to TLG Abington! She worked tirelessly to fill her Star Jar, working towards a visit back to her happy place! The amazing staff is what makes THIS Little Gym stand out from the rest! They welcomed us back with open arms, smiles and memories of our past times! Can’t recommend The Little Gym of Abington enough! Only wish we lived closer!

Great place for the entire family! Friendly staff, clean environment, a variety of events and programs for every age group! I have been bringing my daughter, son and friends along, as they do offer the option to bring a friend at a discounted price for members. Overall, I recommend the little gym and appreciate the positive vibes every time we step foot in the door!

I attended one of the introductory classes ($25) to see if my daughter would like it. A month later a staff member did a solicitation call to get me to sign up ($100 monthly), which I did, my child had a free month before her summer camp starts. So I only planned on paying for a month of classes and if she wanted too, I could sign back after summer camp when school starts, which I mentioned during the sign up solicitation call. I only attended 2 classes, One week was listed as a credit due to a memorial day holiday, and one week I had to make up due to my child’s graduation. When I return back the very next class, they denied me access due to my membership not being active. Then they had the nerve to tell me I can pay again to attend this class (since Im basically already here).
It was never told to me I would not be able to use my two credit classes I paid for if I decide not to keep pay a continued $100 monthly fee. Then the manager put it off as well you should have “read the policy” attitude. Like lady please, the same way you reviewed the monthly fee and took a fast payment, is the same way you could’ve made it clear to me at the time of signing up. The right thing to do was to just allow my child in the class that I drove all the way to which was clearly paid for! Not to turn your face up and have me leave with my child screaming and crying and embarrassed. I will not be coming back. So I’m definitely robbed of two classes. The manager is cold and the policy is made to cheat ppl. Because how are you offering me to walk-in and pay for a random class without a membership as opposed to letting my child attend a class that I already paid for?!
Other than that, my child did enjoy the place. It’s not by any means actual gymnastics classes, it’s more of a fitness activity to keep kids active and to have fun. The staff seems friendly enough and they work well with the kids. The environment was clean and safe. I dt recommend a membership. I do recommend just doing a pay as you go. That way you don’t get burned out your money if you have credit classes due to someone not wanting to commit to a strict membership.
I did go online to read this alleged policy. The manager stated I could not have my child attend two credit classes I paid for if my membership is not active. It was in fact NOT in the policy online.

Friendly, informative, and assistive staff are abound at The Little Gym of Abington! They partner with other groups and create their own events to bring additional quality options to members to enjoy. They learn valuable skills each week tied in with a monthly theme based on lesson plans the coaches create. I started taking my daughter when she was 2 (&4months) and we enjoyed classes together. Now she is 3 (&8months) and enters the gymnastics room without me, joining other children and 3 coaches that manage to engage the lil ones in group activities and skills learning. This is great for lil ones to practice moving their bodies in different ways, become aware of others and how to move safely around each other, a bit of socialization, gaining confidence by learning and building up to new skills, and to grow independence.

At The Little Gym, Princess Bubblegum is not just a coach; she’s a magical mentor who brings joy and enthusiasm to every session. Her dedication to the children is evident in the way she inspires and encourages them to try new things and build confidence. The Little Gym is truly fortunate to have such a wonderful coach who makes every experience memorable and fun! My child loves going to The Little Gym, and I highly recommend it to any parent looking for a fun and enriching activity for their little one.
