Can not agree with all the reviews below. Babies r unpredictable. I thought that my son will love it. I was told by owner that babies need couple of weeks to get use to it. Me and my son attended two weeks of classes, after which I realized that hes not really interesting in it yet, and on top of it he has some serious teething right now( for the past month hes been extremely cranky) I payed $150.00 and we attended only 3 classes. The cost of semester is $300. I wanted to pay by 2 payments. I told to teacher that we probably going to stop for now. She told me that I have to fill out paper to get some of the payment back, but owner wasnt there, so she told me that hes going to give me a call. Two weeks later, of course no call. I came to the gym, owner pretended that he never knew that we decided to stop our membership for now. So instead of giving me the same information about their cancellation policy, that teacher gave me, he lied that the only thing he can do is give me a family membership credit and hes not going to charge me the rest of the payment. Seriously? What rest of the payment are you talking about if Im telling you that I want to stop for now?! He also didnt even finish talking to me, he just say: ok thats it? I have another customer waiting. So I was like, are you giving me credit? And he told me that hell send me an email with membership credit. Its been two days already, I still didnt received any emails from him. At first I was deciding between gym and swimming classes. My family is working very hard to give my son everything that we think he need as of right now. I seriously dont understand why did he lied that he can not do a return. So guys just WANT TO WARN YOU. Make sure about their cancellation policy first. Because its really disappointing to lose money like that, especially if you counting every penny, while trying to invest in your child future.

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.

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 couldnt 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 sons birthday party an unforgettable event.

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 didnt see any of that. I feel that all the instructors are trying to level with kids depending on their skills level.

We LOVE the Little Gym. My Arianna absolutely loves going there. The instructors are so kid friendly and everyone has a good time while learning. Lisa and Winnie are great co-owners and are always available to answer questions or concerns. Ariannas current instructor is Mr. Jesse and she cant wait to go see him every week! Birthday parties are fun for everyone. They keep everyone busy constantly. Keep up the great work guys. We appreciate it!

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.

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.

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.

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.

Absolutely love this gym! My daughter attended Mr.Izzys 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.

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.
