The Little Gym of Bay Ridge-Bensonhurst: Opinions

Fantastic experience: I couldn’t be happier with our experience at The Little Gym of Bayridge! My child has not only learned so many new skills but has also grown in confidence, coordination, and social interactions. The instructors are incredibly patient, encouraging, and genuinely invested in each child’s progress. The classes are well-structured yet playful, allowing kids to enjoy while learning. My child looks forward to each session and always leaves with a huge smile. The environment is clean, safe, and welcoming for families. I highly recommend The Little Gym of Bayridge for anyone looking to give their child a fun, nurturing place to grow and thrive!
We're thrilled to hear about your positive experience at The Little Gym of Bay Ridge-Bensonhurst!

Fantastic experience: Very nice place for kids. My son has a great time there. Good experience!
We're thrilled to hear that your son enjoys his time with us and that you've had a positive experience. We strive to create a fun and engaging environment for kids. Thank you for your kind words and high rating!
Negative experience: Extremely disappointed by the level of management integrity. So basically I came in for the first time on February 3rd with my child. My child enjoyed his session and so I signed him up for a monthly membership. After two weeks, I couldn’t get my child to want to go back (we only went that one time when we signed him up) and so I called to cancel my child’s membership and they refused to let me cancel without having to pay for one more additional month. I AM NOT EVEN ASKING FOR A REFUND I JUST WANT TO CANCEL MY CHILDS MEMBERSHIP IMMEDIATELY. I was told I need to cancel 30 days in advance so that I have to pay for one more month… my membership hasn’t even been active for 30 days for that to even be possible. So that basically means after signing up, you are locked in for 2 months as it’s not possible to cancel before the second month. This is extremely ridiculous policy to apply immediately. Listen I understand policies are in place but the fact there was no empathy by management after explanation my circumstances says a lot about the integrity of this place. Forcing me to pay one extra month is robbery. Moral of the story, be very sure your child wants to sign up and make sure you initiate cancellations at least one month in advance. Don’t expect any favors.
We're truly sorry to hear about your experience and understand your frustration. Our membership cancellation policy is designed to provide clarity and fairness to all our members, and we regret if this was not communicated effectively at the time of sign-up. We value your feedback and will take it into consideration as we continually strive to improve our services and policies. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
Fantastic experience: We like that gym center a lot. Highly recommend to any child.
We're thrilled to hear that you're enjoying our gym and appreciate your recommendation. It's always great to know that our programs are positively impacting our children. Thank you for your feedback!
Fantastic experience: 202306xx::attended a cousins bday party. the party room, playroom, and facilities were clean. big window to watch the tikes play. there were staff to play and watch over the little ones. as they went to the dining room, the staff used some kind of electrostatic sprayer all over the playroom, it smelled nice
We're thrilled to hear that you had a positive experience at the birthday party! Cleanliness and safety are our top priorities, and we're glad that our efforts to maintain a clean and enjoyable environment were noticed. Thank you for your kind words and the 5-star rating!
Negative experience: While the staff are very friendly Liam the franchisee is terrible. We sent our daughter there for years and paid thousands of dollars. When we decided to end our relationship after seeing a charge on payment method Liam refused to issue a refund for services not rendered. We saw the charge, called to inquire why we were being charged, and requested a refund only to be told they are not capable, not that they can’t, or won’t, but are incapable of issuing refunds to original payment methods which is illegal. He’s rude and clearly has no value for his clients. I regret exposing my daughter to someone of such low moral and ethical standards and will be scheduling time with the local PTA’s to share my experience to ensure families are warned of his illicit practices before entering into business with him. His business licenses should be revoked.
We're truly sorry to hear about your experience. We take your feedback seriously and are committed to making all our policies as clear and transparent as possible and providing the best possible experience to all our members. We understand your concerns regarding the refund issue and we assure you that we are looking into it. We regret any inconvenience caused and appreciate your patience as we work to resolve this matter. -TLG Team
Fantastic experience: Very friendly staff, great space, lots of classes to choose from and very easy to cancel a class and schedule a make-up in case there is a scheduling conflict. Both of my kids absolutely look forward to their time here. The idea of "Parents Survival Night" is also incredible.
We're thrilled to hear that you and your children are enjoying our variety of classes and flexible scheduling. It's great to know that our "Parents Survival Night" is appreciated. Thank you for your positive feedback and the 5-star rating. We look forward to continuing to provide a great experience for your family.
Fantastic experience: We booked our daughter’s birthday party at this location. It was easy to do it online and they followed up right away with a phone call. From the beginning they were very helpful and answered my million questions. They carry limited party themes, but since I wanted an Abby Cadabby theme, we had to bring our own decor. I dropped off the decorations the day before and on the day of the party, Vita and her team had decorated beautifully. We were very happy. They provide pizza and juices for the kids. And they can order outside catered food for the parents. We brought our own food and it wasn’t an issue. Our guests started showing up early and they were allowed to come in and wait till the party started. We added 1/2 hour which I think was needed, otherwise, it would’ve been too rushed. The staff packed up leftovers and decorations and cleaned the party room, while we said goodbye to our guests, which was helpful. Our guests were aged 1 to 12; but I do think it’s better for kids age 10 and under. Still, the parents told me their kids had a blast. The kids go into the playroom to play while parents stay outside. So I would recommend you bring some light snacks for adults and some music while they wait for their kids and the main food came out. We didn’t think of that. We actually had them hold off on all the food till the kids came out from play and I didn’t realize that parents may have been hungry waiting for their kids. But it was all fine. And the most important thing is that our daughter had a blast!
Dear A., Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We truly appreciate your review and will work hard to continue going above and beyond! We hope to continue exceeding your expectations with great service. See you next time!
Fantastic experience: My daughters just had their birthday party here and it was such a great experience. The staff set up the party room so beautifully and the kids had such a blast doing the activities and gymnastics. Very stress free. The staff was so helpful in every way. They set up, cleaned up and overall we’re just very pleasant.
Dear Topaz, Thanks for the great review! It's feedback like yours that reminds us why we do what we do. We hope to become one of your favorites. Let us know what we need to do to earn your continued loyalty. It was a pleasure to serve you.
Fantastic experience: Really spacious and CLEAN facility, which you cant say about most of the kids gyms in the area ( we tried quite a few ). My daughter has been attending PreK gymnastics and loves it. Staff is really friendly and instructors pay special attention to all the kids. We will definitely be back in the fall. I do understand concerns the previous reviewer might have but we really didn't see any of that. I feel that all the instructors are trying to level with kids depending on their skills level.
Fantastic experience: My daughter has been taking classes here for a year and she has developed so many great skills. The facility is clean, instructors are caring and the classes are always well staffed. We just had a 3rd birthday party here and all the kids, especially mine, had a great time. The Little Gym made us feel very special.
Fantastic experience: Always amazing the people here are so nice. Every last one of them. I know my son is in good hands here and he will have fun. Thank you little gym. ❤️

Fantastic experience: Really fun gymnastic experience for the kids and a joy for the parents to witness. Our two kids of different ages both love going to the little gym and the instructors are all fun and engaging with the kids. The equipment is good and each week they focus on different skills. I recommend this for kids, especially the little ones.

Fantastic experience: Literally most fun place on earth for kids!
We are glad you and your daughters are enjoying our programs! Its a pleasure to have you. - The Little Gym Team
Negative experience: Signed up for classes since I had a pandemic baby and was hoping it would be good for her. Honestly it’s just way to overpriced. Also the timings aren’t great if your child is younger than 2 years old. Sometimes the classes would be around her nap time which made her cranky. To be completely honest I don’t recommend this place. Each class is literally over $30 a class which is very expensive for a 45 min class. Majority of the class the kids just run around so it’s not worth it. I have found that my daughter enjoys indoor parks so much more which cost about $20 with a lot more fun activities Which works better for me because I can go whenever I want so I don’t feel pressured to have my kid ready at a certain time. If your child is young you know it’s hard to stick to a schedule most of the time. Also, Like other reviews mentioned the front desk makes passive aggressive remarks and I don’t feel comfortable asking him any questions which shouldn’t be the case. I would feel comfortable even calling if I needed to change the day of the class. I won’t be going back.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review about us. We appreciate ALL feedback, as it helps us improve our programs for you and other customers. Leon Bun
Fantastic experience: absolutely love this place! very friendly staff and our daughter can't wait for every class to come
Negative experience: Very unprofessional and rude customer service. I’ve purchased coupon and was treated very bad. They would take my number and never gave me a back call. It was hard to reach them. Update: you didn’t even pick up the phone and last time you made me cancel coupon, you writing an answer like your are nice person , but when I call you act yourself very unprofessional.
Dear Aysa, Thank you for taking the time to give us feedback about our business. It looks like you were trying to reach us after-hours (Saturday afternoon) and we apologize that it took us some time get back to you. Please give me a call at (718) 259-6878, I'd love to discuss your experience in further detail. Thank you, Leon.
Fantastic experience: The Little Gym is such a great place for kids; my 18 months old daughter loves it. Age appropriate groups, safe environment and friendly instructors (especially Miss Hara). Highly recommend going here!

Fantastic experience: This place is awesome, in 2018 we were looking for an activity based class for our daughter to learn and develop skills. Thank goodness we found this place. They have a flexible schedule and the staff (Leon, Hara, Brittany and Izzy) are really awesome. They really give attention and focus on helping out each kid in the class and most importantly, our daughter has developed skills and had so much fun doing so. The staff at the little gym is also accommodating and are genuinely great people who really enjoy helping kids. Our daughter is so excited to go to Little Gym every week!!!

Fantastic experience: Our son absolutely loves this gym. We went there for 2 years, he has learned to do so many athletic activities. At the beginning he was afraid of trying new things, was terrified of the balance beam, for instance; after a few months he could walk on the beam by himself. The teachers are so good with kids and the activities are perfect for their age, building up both their agility and self confidence.
Anna, Thank you so much for the kind words about our program and teachers! We are so happy that both of you enjoyed the program and that your son has grown so much during his time here. Looking forward to the next time! -The Little Gym Staff
Fantastic experience: Absolutely love this place!! I enrolled my daughter a year ago and she has thrived so much. I am so proud of all the skills my 2 year old has learned from The Little Gym but most importantly I am proud of my daughters’ independence that her gymnastics classes gave her! My daughter is constantly looking forward to her gymnastics classes especially with Ms. Hara, our gymnastics teacher. Ms. Hara is simply amazing!! She is patient, kind, and very enthusiastic. I highly recommend The Little Gym of Bay Ridge/Bensonhurst for parents who are looking for a great place for their kids to be active! Ps. I also love how the owner always greets parents and children when you walk in, makes you feel at home.
Feda, Thank you so much for the kind words about our program as well as for Ms. Hara! We are so happy that both of you are enjoying the program and that your daughter has grown so much during her time here. We are always so happy to see you guys and can't wait till next time. -The Little Gym Staff
Fantastic experience: My son loves to go to the Little Gym! We live a bit far from it, but my son so eager to go there! The place is very tidy and the atmosphere is warm. Ms. Hara and Mr Izzy are his instructors, they are very friendly and kind, always encouraging and helping the munchkins! Class activities are fun. If I had to reschedule, whoever picked up the phone , they were really polite and tried to work out the best for both parties. I'm really pleased, because this is my son first experience in these kinds of settings and he had a blast! Thank you
Fantastic experience: Great gym for you kids to socialize and learn basic gymnastic skills. My daughter looks forward to the class every weekend. Highly recommend especially for the winter.
Billy, Thank you so much for the kind words! We are so happy she is enjoying her class and we always look forward to seeing you all every week! -The Little Gym Staff
Fantastic experience: First of all I almost never write reviews, but I felt compelled to after our daughter's 6th birthday we just had at The Little Gym. One word is all that comes to mind - AWESOME! Truly, truly awesome! Everyone of the parents that came to my daughter's party was so impressed with the place, and I couldn't help but suggest that they should bring their child there too -because I am that sure they'd have a great experience with them as well. My daughter has been doing gymnastics at the gym for almost 5 months, and we've never had anything but great experiences with the owner, the staff, and their learning techniques. I've seen my very shy 5 year old (now 6 ) come out of her shell and I cannot thank her coach (Mr. Alex) enough! He's awesome...and my daughter looks forward to every class, practice session and even their Parent Survival nights...which mom loves too! Lol! Thank you Little Gym. Our experience with this place will forever be a wonderful memorable one!
Lisa, thank you so much for these amazing stars and we can't wait to see you back again! Also, thank you for the kind words about our staff - they're all more than happy to help! - Leon B., Owner
Fantastic experience: We had the best birthday party here! It was for a 2nd birthday but we had kids come of all ages (from 10 months - 8 years old) and all of them loved it. It’s easier for the parents too because you have the whole place to yourself and can go back and forth from the gym play area go the party room. Def having more parties here!
Thank you Vanessa! We are really happy that you and your guests had fun! We did too!
Fantastic experience: We love The Little Gym! My son is 11 months old and has a great time in his classes. The teachers and staff are amazing at what they do! Highly recommend going here!

Fantastic experience: I had my son’s second birthday here and couldn't have been happier! Honestly my only downside was the kids could’ve played soo much longer and that’s with the extra half hour! They all just had so much fun they didn’t want to stop. The staff was excellent , very attentive...really made sure all the kids had fun. Would highly recommend for a party!

Fantastic experience: We recently had a 3rd birthday party at the little gym and it was great. A quick phone call about what we wanted (including food for kids and adults, color schemes, beverages, etc) and my party was planned with literally no work on my part. The 3 instructors gave everyone attention and did fun activities for an hour, to wear all the kids out. My son had a great time!
Thank you so much for choosing our place to celebrate your son’s birthday! We are really happy that you and your guests had a great time - Leon B., Owner
Fantastic experience: My daughter has been going to the Little Gym for over a year now and she's loving it. Besides learning the basics of gymnastics, she has gained confidence, she's less afraid of heights, she loves the entertaining and interactive warm-ups with different themes each week, and of course wonderful and professional instructors, who keep her safe.
We love hearing your daughter enjoying our program, Ekaterina! Thanks for your review and we can't wait to see you both back for another great time. - Leon B., Owner
Fantastic experience: The Little Gym is a great place for our 20 month old to work on his gross motor skills. We really like the consistent routine the instructor provides each week. Our son knows what to expect and is able to anticipate the next activity. Since he doesn't go to daycare, he has difficulty following directions during group activities-- it's a new skill he is working on. The instructor has been so kind and patient with our son as he is learning how to be a part of a group. And so far each week, my husband and I have seen a positive change. Also, he's been learning a new gym skill every week. He's getting better at climbing, walking up/down inclines, gripping, and even participating during circle time. Since there has been no pressure in forcing our son to participate in any of the activities, this has allowed us to teach him to join in on the fun without making a scene.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review about us. We appreciate ALL feedback, as it helps us improve our programs for you and other customers. Leon Bun
Fantastic experience: Signed up my 2 year old over 2 months ago. She loves it! I like the evening class availability, friendly staff, and very flexible scheduling. Access to the gym for open play included in the price.
We love hearing your daughter enjoying our program, Ada! Thanks for your review and we can't wait to see you both back for another great time. - Leon B., Owner
Fantastic experience: Such a great place for kids, age appropriate groups, very safe environment and happy and friendly instructors. Variety of classes and activities. I love how they find an approach to each child. My kids love it here! Next day party celebration will be here as well :) glad to have found this place! Update 3/7/18 just had a bday party here “It was the best birthday party ever, I truly appreciate it” said my daughter Emily 6 y/o. The kids got personalized attention in a safe gym area. There are no outside kids/adults during the party. NOT overcrowded/ noisy/ disorganized like some places we’ve experienced before. The adults can be with the kids or away from them in a nearby room enjoying refreshments. Both rooms have huge glass windows so the kids are visible and also supervised and entertained. The pricing is decent for Brooklyn NY, the staff is pleasant and knowledgeable. Will celebrate younger daughters there in a month gladly again. I came home without a headache this year and had a chance to mingle and converse with guests at normal conversational level! No Yelling or nodding politely :)) Thank you all!
Polina, I'm so glad to see your kids love coming here. We want to make sure it's a fun, educational place for children to grow, so I'm beyond happy that your kids have experienced that. Looking forward to the next time you all join us! -Leon B., Owner
Fantastic experience: Great class to kids and toddlers to develop new skills that are physical and visual.
Misha, Thank you so much for the review and we can't wait to see you and your child back again! - The Little Gym Of Bay Ridge Bensonhurst
Negative experience: Pros - gym is fairly large size for toddler to run around and get a good exercise depending on their ability. There are multiple classes offered throughout the day and throughout the week. Kids are grouped together with similar age groups. There is a viewing room in case family members join you. The gym is located on the 2nd floor and offer elevator. Cons - Classes come out to $30 per/session if you choose split two payments. And for the money, the value is lacking as instructions are inconsistent. Some classes are taught very well and some classes, not so much. They follow a curriculum but you are allowed to make up classes within 30 days. Which if you miss that week's instruction, because they have weekly instructions, you are just going in for another session, not necessarily following their curriculum. You MUST pay to start class (which is fine) but when requesting refund due to dissatisfaction of the class, their refund policy is a bit complicated. You must give 30 days notice (exact 30 days must pass then you have to wait 3 to 5 business days before you see your refund). They offer open play hours during the week Mon-Thur from 12pm to 3pm. Which for most toddlers is a nap time. So unless you live around the corner, there is no value to these hours as by the time you get there, you get maybe 30 minutes. The gym is located next to a commercial businesses. So this location has a lot of cars double parked, no cross walk sign for pedestrians and can be quiet dangerous to cross when crossing the street with a toddler. Their glass door is heavy and difficult to open the door when you have a stroller in a bad weather. Make up classes are allowed. However, if something happens to you or your child and you have to cancel (which most moms can relate to this happening as kids get sick all the time), the owner makes smart remarks or makes you uncomfortable by confronting you passive aggressively. Don't get to the class too early, the owner will let you know you are too early even though you had to come in early for parking reasons. My overall experience here was not good. I felt uncomfortable multiple times by the owner with comments or overall customer service I received from him. Once I gave my 30 day noticed, the owner wouldn't call me back after multiple calls and message I left. Just had to call back multiple times before I got someone who asked me few questions to make sure I knew the cancel policy. And when you do get to talk to the owner, he doesn't let you finish. He interrupts you and cares about being "right" more than providing customer service. I mad multiple make-up hours I didn't bother to make up as this information wasn't even share with me once I put in my 30 days notice. Any business that is quick to take your money but does not provide customer service throughout, make it difficult to request refund or make you chase for information regarding refund, I'd say think twice before signing up. Because the headache, frustration I went through... I wouldn't want any busy, hard working moms to go through.

Fantastic experience: Love it and would definitely have another birthday there
Lalani, Thank you so much for the review and we can't wait to see you back again! We love celebrating birthdays and we are so happy to hear you enjoyed it! - The Little Gym Of Bay Ridge Bensonhurst
Fantastic experience: Both my kids had great experiences with summer camp and classes at lg. Clean facility, friendly staffs lots of fun and exercise for the kids
Jia, we are really happy Skylar and Amber like it! Looking forward to the next time you join us! -Leon B., Owner
Positive experience: Giving 4 stars only because I'm selfish and wish the classes were longer! :) My older son came to Little Gym at Bay Ridge-Bensonhurst for a year from 1.5 yrs old to almost 2.5 years old. He loved it so much that when the year was over, he'd ask about the gym randomly. I'm having major thoughts in putting him back in again! Or maybe just enroll his younger brother! (update: We've recently enrolled my 15 month old to start in september! yay!)
Hi Linda, thank you for the stars! Please come back and allow us to earn one more star!
Fantastic experience: I loved that the employees were very attentive and helpful! Seeing my daughters smile made the day and glad she had chosen this place after we attended a birthday party
Judith, we are really happy Grace liked it! Its a pleasure! Looking forward to the next time you all join us! -Leon B., Owner
Negative experience: Beware they will charge you credit card Evan if you don't renew for another semester and without them telling you. Sent my daughter for the first semester from September to December. We decided not to send her there for the next semester because my wife was pregnant and the whether got colder. They charged my card for 522 again in December. We called 3 times over 1 month to give us credit and every time said they would, they never did. We had to dispute the charge.
Antonis, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We appreciate all feedback, as it helps us improve our services for you and other customers. I simply wanted to address/clarify a few things mentioned in your review: our program runs same as the school year so if you join our program it would be September-June (there are no semesters). We would never charge our customers credit card without their written authorization (which we have for you on file) While you can stop attending the program anytime we only require 30 days advance notice, which your wife gave us on 1/3/18. I hope this clarifies it and i’ll be happy to discuss it with you directly Leon B, Owner
Negative experience: Not a place for special needs children. They advertise that they work with autistic kids but they don’t.
Hello Hotmessmom, thank you for taking time to leave us a review. We never advertised that we are a special needs kids gym and we would really appreciate if you tell us where you saw that misleading information.
Negative experience: Very bad experience I had today! I called them and ask if my daughter can try one free ballet class they said you can come on Monday and she take my information and then when I went they told me there is no more room for your daughter and we can’t find your name on this class !! I walked 20 minuets in the cold weather with my little one and they didn’t let her to try the class !! This is unprofessional way !! My daughter she so disappointed she told me mommy why they didn’t let me go :( shame on you!
Hello Mouna, we certainly feel bad that you feel this way. Based on what you told us, it doesn’t seem like you called our gym. It would make no sense for us to tell someone to come for a trial if we didn’t have a class and upset a potential customer. We did not have your information in our system and nothing was scheduled. There is no PreK dance class on Monday at our location. Just to be fair, we did offer you to wait if someone wouldn’t show up for PreK gymnastics class so you can try it instead of dance. Please feel free to reach out to us at 718-259-6878 should you have any questions. Thank you!
Fantastic experience: The Little gym is a place all kids will have fun regardless their gymnastic abilities. Kids love to jump, roll, skip and bounce and they can do that safely there. My daughter loves this place, she plays, learns and gains new friends each time she is there. Clair adores all her teachers. They are hard working group of kind people. One of the best places for kids to learn and have fun at the same time.
Anna, I'm so glad Clair loves coming here. We're thrilled to see she plays, learns, and makes new friends every visit. Also, thank you for the kind words about our staff -- they're all more than happy to help. Can't wait to see you all again! -Leon B., Owner
Fantastic experience: I have two daughters in classes at the Bay Ridge-Bensonhurst Little Gym, and they both love going to their gymnastics class every week. The instructors are professional and very good with children. The owner and staff are friendly, respond quickly to questions, and seem to genuinely care about the kids. I highly recommend it.
Fantastic experience: They were very efficient in helping us to set up the birthday room, and also cleanup later; organized everything in good orders. They are always friendly and helpful in answering my questions. The facility itself is also very clean as always. Ample pace for the kids to run, jump, toss around. My birthday girl and her guests had a blast. Highly recommended!
We're thrilled to have been able to help you and your family have a great time at your daughter's birthday party! Thank you for recommending us, by the way. Looking forward to welcoming you back soon! -Leon B., Owner
Fantastic experience: We love The Little Gym. My daughter has been taking dance and gymnastics there for the past year and looks forward to it every week. We also had an awesome birthday party for our twins there. It was easy and fun - can't ask for much more than that.

Fantastic experience: My daughter attended the Little Gym in 2014 and 2015, we started off with gymnastics with Izzy and then switched to karate. My daughter loved lessons with Izzy. He is great with kids and I highly recommend taking a class with him.
I'm thrilled your daughter loved her gymnastic lessons, Maryam! Thanks so much for your amazing recommendation and I can't wait to see you both back for another kickin' afternoon. - Leon B., Owner
Fantastic experience: My son and our family were delighted with our Little Gym Awesome Birthday Bash experience this passed Saturday. Kids, both- younger and older, had an amazing time playing in this awesome indoor facility. The action never stopped and the children just couldn't get enough. The service provided by our party hosts was exceptional. They attended to our every need and made our evening stress-free, so we could enjoy ourselves. I would happily recommend your party facility to anyone having a party. I am so happy to have found this location, it truly made my son's birthday party an unforgettable event.
I'm truly delighted that you had a great time, Anna! Thanks so much for these excepetionally thoughtful words and I cna't wait to welcome you and your son back soon. - Leon B., Owner
Fantastic experience: Excellent, fun, very spacious! My son is crazy happy taking Ms.Alyssa class. He is only 15 months old, little shy munchkin who loves to run around and imitate. I think its amazing especially for little toddlers. Ms. Alyssa teaches them such a cute little tricks, and new way to help them improve their little skills. Im extremely happy! Its really a fun class. We will definitely keep coming back for years.

Fantastic experience: My girls really enjoyed the Little Gym. It was hard in the beginning but they ended up liking it. It is a great way to learn risk taking, learn new skills, and test their limits. I particularly enjoyed the diversity of the staff members as well as the participants :) It is a friendly environment. I recommend to those who are skeptical about it, to try out a free class, and see what you or your child thinks.

Fantastic experience: Absolutely love this gym! My daughter attended Mr.Izzy's class for 2 years , we traveled all the way from park slope because he was the only instructor she was comfortable with. The classes are well worth their price, are always on a beginners level & the kids always have a great time while getting exercise and socializing.
I absolutely love hearing you enjoyed our gym, Christine! Thanks so much for your glowing recommendation and I can't wait to see you both back for another great time. - Leon B., Owner

Positive experience: My daughter attended the little gym from about February through June 2015. First the Positives: The staff, with the exception of one member, are friendly and very kid friendly. The gym is well maintained and clean. My daughter enjoyed making new friends and picked up a few tricks to show off in the parks. That being said I know you cannot discriminate but I was uncomfortable with the male staff member when it came to hands on (physical touching} teaching or guidance. He seemed to be crude in his manner when dealing with the children. I know its a gym and I do expect some bumps and bruises but I also expect better supervision. my daughter managed to get hurt more in a controlled and "supervised" environment than in outside play. Some of the exercises seemed too advanced for the children. On the day the children had their celebrated success show, where parents were permitted in the gym area my daughter was promptly ejected and embarrassed by the male staff member for which he gave a contradicting explanation to that of my daughters. On the same day he permitted a young boy to hang upside down on the rings and instructed the boy to stay in that position. No sooner had the male instructor walked away that young child lost his grip and landed on his head...in front of the parents. its no wonder he did not sustain serious injury to his neck. there were many instances like this. my daughter wanted to attend come the fall but I opted to not sign her up. we will find another outlet for her. I am surprised by the glowing reviews the little gym has received.
Hi Angel: Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We are sorry to hear that you were not satisfied with your experience with us due to your experience with one of our instructors. Please know that we recognize how this can impact your experience and that this is highly uncharacteristic of our team. We are taking steps to ensure this does not occur again and hope that your future visits will be more enjoyable! Thank you, Leon Bun
