The Little Gym® – the world´s leading motor skill development program for children aged 4 months to 12 years finally came to the Czech Republic. The first Czech affiliate of this international Franchise opened her doors on March 30st 2010 at Prague 5 – Smíchov, Drtinova 8.

For over 30 years, parents have relied on The Little Gym® to help their kids build the skills and confidence that will enhance every aspect of their lives. Children are encouraged to try their best in fun, safe, and exciting surroundings, not to be the best.

The concept sprang in the 1970s from the mind and heart of founder Robin Wes –  pedagogue, expert at child motor development, musician and former gymnast.  He had a unique idea: to give children the chance to build their motor skills, as well as their social, emotional and intellectual skills – in a fun, magical and non-competitive environment. Having been a successful kinesiologist for many years in South Africa, he moved to the US and opened The Little Gym® in 1976 in Bellevue, Washington.

In The Little Gym® of Prague – like in all other branches around the world – the professionally developed, gymnastics based, non-competitive curriculum builds motor skills in a fun and nurturing environment, while fostering enhanced emotional, intellectual and social skills. Based around weekly themed classes, youngsters thrive in the colorful facility, where friendly instructors reward children for their individual effort.
