At The Little Gym Leeds classes start from just 4 months old and we are missing seeing all the new Bugs joining our classes. Sadly our gyms are closed and are unlikely to be reopening in the near future. I’m sure you had plans to attend a range of classes and your maternity hasn’t quite worked out as you have planned. Teacher Hollie has certainly experienced this and she is still off on maternity leave with Baby Jack. We are keen that you don’t all miss out!!
If your little one is still a pre walker, Teacher Hollie & other instructors will be running a regular Zoom class on a Wednesday morning at 10.30, which is free to attend. We would love you to join us and experience why we at The Little Gym believe movement is such a key part of child development.
We would love to have you all join us for our first workshop. Drop us an email to harrogate@thelittlegym.eu and we will send you the login details for the Zoom class on a weekly basis! Or if you have any questions you can also get in touch. We hope to see you all next week!
Why do we focus on physical development and movement at such a young age?
The brain’s master plan is for movement to become automated. As movement becomes automated, it will free up our little ones brain to focus on another task. This is how we become able to multitask. Multi tasking is laying a thinking task on top of automated tasks. The only way for a movement to become automated, is through repetition. By spotting our little ones through a range of movements we can help with this automation, whilst engaging all their senses and working on basic resistance exercises. Basic movement exercises will help with bilateral coordination, development of proprioception awareness, depth perception, core strength, balance and other benefits!
Don’t forget our social media pages are jam-packed with lots of ideas to keep moving, to keep learning and to keep having fun! Subscribe to our YouTube Facebook and Instagram pages for even more activities, live classes, tips and ways to keep in touch.
