The Little Gym of Chicago | Cook County, IL
About this class
The Little Gym is basically where you go when you want to feel like you're doing something good for your kiddo's development while also getting a bit of a workout yourself - win-win, right? They're really into the whole "serious fun" thing, which sounds cheesy but actually works out pretty well because your little one gets to tumble around on safe equipment while you're doing more than just sitting on the sidelines scrolling your phone. The classes have actual structure with songs, basic gymnastics moves, and all those sensory activities with balls and bubbles that make toddlers lose their minds with excitement, but it's not so rigid that you'll stress if your kid decides today is the day they only want to roll down the same mat seventeen times. Plus you'll probably end up chatting with other parents who also thought they'd have more energy for this parenting thing, and honestly, sometimes that adult conversation is worth the class fee alone!
Parents note how their kiddos are bursting with excitement, often running home and mimicking the fun movements they learned in class. It's heartwarming to see that little ones truly absorb the joy of fitness!

I went in just to see the space with my 16 month old and was met with the not even a greeting, but we can’t let you in the gym unless it’s time for class for her age which gender my child and then I corrected them and he misted him again so I just left. When someone walks into your space. you should greet them with kindness and they could be a potential customer not the first thing you tell them is we can’t show you to gym, you have to pay $45 for Class. I’m just here to check out the space and look at in person. The lady working with this was not nice. I’m like with toddler and hand and made me feel really uncomfortable so I left best of luck to this place but I wouldn’t recommend it.

We recently organized a birthday party at the Little Gym, and couldn't have been happier with the whole experience. They worked with us to make sure that the food and decorations we provided were set up, they really got into the theme we chose, and were genuinely excited to have fun with the kids on a "parents' night out" on a Saturday night. The place was very clean (they vacuum and disinfect regularly), and the staff was very engaging with the kids, making sure to usher the parents out of the way and on with their evenings. The price was very reasonable considering they took every responsibility and worry away for the entire block of time. All the kids had a blast, admittedly because we peered in from the street window to see everyone laughing and jumping around. It was also nice to see parents be able to drop their kids off and spend a few hours unwinding (a dozen of us went around the corner to Flagship, which was also great). We look forward to going back soon.

We’ve been going to Little Gym for over a year and absolutely love it. Our son is now 2 and we started him in classes just after he started walking. I love that it’s a mixture of structured and unstructured play, which is the perfect fit for our kiddo. It’s been amazing to see what skills he has picked up from class. All of the coaches we’ve had have been wonderful (shoutout to Anna, Daniel, and Vanessa). Every week they have a theme and focus on different skills and give you ideas of what to do at home to continue the theme. The staff is super friendly and helpful. If we can’t make it in or need to schedule a makeup class, it’s easy to do via text or phone call.

This place is great for little ones. All the coaches are friendly, caring, and really enthusiastic with the kiddos. My kiddo loves attending class. And I like how they will remember the progress of the kids and provide feedback. I highly recommend.

I usually do not write reviews however I feel very compelled to write a review because of our positive experience. My 3yo daughter absolutely loves this gym. She attended her first class this week. The coaches were very responsive and very on top of coordinating the classroom time and welcome/introduction days before the class. When it actually came down to the first day of class it was amazing. I have never seen my daughter more comfortable and happy in an activity. She gladly ran in to the class independently and tried new experiences and took risks that otherwise would have been hesitant to try. The coaches used imaginative play while also using structured learning to practice basic gymnastic skills. I see ourselves growing with the gym over the next many years.
