Parent and Child

At PGC, parent and child gymnastics class is a fun and interactive program for toddlers and preschoolers, typically between 18 months and 3 years old. The class is designed to introduce young children to the fundamentals of gymnastics and physical activity in a safe and supportive environment.

In this class, parents or caregivers actively participate alongside their child, acting as their primary “coach” and support system. Our professional gymnastics instructor leads the class, guiding the parent and child through a variety of engaging activities such as;

Warm-ups set to music or songs to get everyone moving.
Basic tumbling skills like forward rolls, backward rolls, and log rolls, with parents spotting and assisting their child.
Balance beam activities that teach balance and coordination, such as walking forward, sideways, and doing small jumps.
Swinging and hanging on bars to build upper body strength and hand-eye coordination.
Obstacle courses that use mats, blocks, and other gymnastics equipment to help children learn to climb, crawl, and jump.

The primary goals of a parent and child gymnastics class are not just to teach gymnastics skills, but also to help with motor skill development, body awareness, and social interaction. It’s a great opportunity for parents to bond with their child, and for children to build confidence and learn to follow instructions in a fun, structured setting.

Through the help of our PGC staff, you can teach your child to explore the world around them in new and exciting ways. Children are developing rapidly during these first years and early physical activity stimulates developmental learning skills. Your child will be having so much fun, they won’t realize they’re learning, but you will!

Fun-filled obstacle courses infused with music will help your child to learn the basic gymnastic elements: swinging, climbing, running, jumping and other fine and gross motor skills, including eye/hand coordination. In addition, the children are learning to watch, listen and follow basic directions surrounded by the PGC professional staff.

Safety is of utmost importance at all times!

What a fun way to get closer to your child spending hours of enriching time together, celebrating every discovery with smiles, hugs and an occasional giggle. Every session is truly quality time for toddler and parent!
