About My Gym
Who is My Gym?
My Gym has created an extraordinary program and facility devised to help children
6 weeks to 13 years of age develop physically, cognitively and emotionally. Imaginations
soar and children triumph at My Gym Children's Fitness Center.
Our structured, age-appropriate weekly classes incorporate music, dance, relays,
games, special rides, gymnastics, sports and other original activities. My Gym kids
have so much fun as they gain strength, balance, coordination, fine and gross motor
proficiency, agility, flexibility and social skills. The most important benefit
we offer, however, is the building of confidence and self-esteem.
My Gym's state-of-the-art facility has custom-designed equipment, the configuration
of which is changed each week to provide a new and exciting experience for the children.
Our extensively trained staff, award-winning class programs and excellent student/teacher
ratio have earned My Gym the reputation as the best early learning program of its
kind.

The My Gym Philosophy
 |
- Children are the most precious part of our lives and the most valuable resource
this planet has.
- Every child deserves to be treated with kindness, patience,
love and understanding.
- A youngster's first seven years have a profound influence
on the rest of his/her life.
- It is imperative that a child develop confidence
and self-esteem during these important and formative early years.
- Children are
to be seen, heard and believed.
- Youngsters will thrive in a loving and noncompetitive
environment where they feel physically and emotionally safe.
- Immediate, positive
reinforcement is the most effective means to facilitate a child's learning, comprehension
and retention.
- Keeping a very low student/teacher ratio is the only way to provide
the individual attention young children require.
- Fun, variety and excitement
are crucial elements in motivating youngsters.
- Attitudes toward health and fitness
begin forming in the early years.
- Children delight in getting to know and control
their own bodies.
- The thrill of accomplishment from achieving a physical task
builds self-esteem and confidence that carries over into all aspects of a child's
life.
- An active and physically fit youngster is a happy, healthy one.
There are countless lessons to be learned through structured, group physical activity
when presented in the proper manner.
- Children learn to listen, to follow directions, to be independent and to cooperate
in a group.
- They learn self-control and self-discipline.
- They learn
to work for a goal and to work hard.
- They acquire social skills and learn more
about themselves as they interact with one another and the teachers.
- A child's
vocabulary increases and even his/her sense of humor.
- Most important of all,
however, is the evolving of a healthy self-image. A child who feels good about him/herself
has a jump-start on the path to becoming a happy, well-adjusted adult!
