The Little Gym of Summit | Union County, NJ
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!
Families love how their little ones burst out with joy and excitement, often exclaiming, 'I can do a cartwheel now!' after class. It's these sweet moments that make every visit to The Little Gym feel like a huge win for both kids and parents!

I started bringing my son to The Little Gym of Summit since he was 5 months old, he is now 3 years old and still loving his class at TLG! The moment we first walked in the door we felt the warm welcome and positive energy from the teachers and staff and we were immediately hooked. What started out as a class to have “something to do” as a new mom, quickly turned into a class we look forward to with great enthusiasm every week. Not only does my son have a blast at his class, his strength and coordination have improved at such a fast rate. Family and friends are always so impressed at how he can handle himself at the playground or running around outside, and I always give TLG classes a ton of credit for this. We adore all the teachers at TLG of Summit. They are so knowledgeable and personable, they truly create magic for these little ones each and every single day. With all of these positives, the most important thing (in my opinion) that we have taken away from TLG are the friendships we have made. My son has a little friend he adores that he met from class and now we have grown to become close friends with his parents as well. We are so grateful to TLG for giving us the opportunity to meet such amazing people and create beautiful memories. I can’t wait to start my youngest son on his Little Gym journey next month!

We truly love the Little Gym in Summit! We have been going there since my daughter was 2.5 years old and it’s the best decision we have ever made for her. You don’t realize that they not only teach them things like how to skip and hop but it also teaches them to listen to their teachers, take direction and wait their turn in the funniest ways. We have had almost every teacher and my daughter loves each one more and more after each group. If you are on the fence sign up! You won’t be disappointed!

TLG of Summit has been a wonderful place for my daughter’s physical and social development. When she was diagnosed with dyspraxia and SPD, her OT recommended that she continue, and I’m so glad she did. She has been attending classes for 9yrs and still loves going, mainly because of the amazing instructors. They go at each child's pace and know exactly when a gentle push or encouragement is needed. The instructors are patient, enthusiastic, and truly dedicated. They’ve created a space that is warm, welcoming, and supportive. Even during COVID, they provided a safe and clean environment. My daughter also celebrated her birthday there a couple of times, and both times she had a great experience.

We have been long time members at the little gym of summit! As longtime members we value the consistent staff, cleanliness, professionalism, curriculum, engagement, extra events and the communication- which is often, clear and concise in a nonaggressive manner. We have LOVED the consistency, growth in all three of our children and dedication and LOVE of this facility. We walk in and feel like family. Ms. Tanya holds an extra special place in our hearts as all of my children have bonded with her. Her warm approach and dedication to her unique teaching style makes every single child in the room glow. She is TRULY special. My oldest carried strong bonds with Mr. Sebastian who is warm and silly but effective at making individualized connections. His abundant love for the children and his exceptional playlists make every person in the room dance. My younger son's teacher, Mr. George, is running a high energy, exciting, focused classes. His obvious love of kids is on display in his mutual interactions of fun and respect, paired with some silliness and he is the perfect piece to this gym ! Last but definitely not least is Ms. Jen, who aside from running an excellent gym, really understands the mom aspect of balancing it all. She gives moms that much needed break by engaging, laughing, building confidence and helping the parents in the room just as much as the kids. She is the glue here that holds it all together. We have appreciated our 7 years in this facility and recommend and refer everyone we know. If you need this kind of environment for your child, you’d be sorely mistaken not to give this location a try! I will be DEVASTATED the day my kids are no longer here.

Both of my sons love going to the Little Gym! The parent and me classes are so fun and well structured, the instructors are extremely kind and engaging, and the facility is very clean. It’s been a great place for my sons to develop both physically and socially. I look forward to our class every week and highly recommend The Little Gym of Summit!
