"We had a wonderful time at The Little Gym of Durham for a 3 year old birthday party! Both of the coaches were fantastic! They started the party off with fun dancing, singing, and getting the kids pumped up to play with some simple rules like “be safe.” This is a newer gym. Everything was clean and well decorated. After gym time, we ate lunch with cake. You bring your own food, but they did the setup and clean up. It was very nice and easy! I highly recommend to come to the gym for a party, class, and other fun activities going on. We look forward to coming back!"

"We are absolutely obsessed with The Little Gym in Durham! We’ve been coming since it opened, and it’s been the best experience for our family. The coaches are amazing — always smiling, greeting us by name, and creating such a fun, positive environment. They’ve helped build so much confidence in our girls, and they truly look forward to class every week. We’ve also had two birthday parties here, and the staff went above and beyond to make each one special. The Little Gym is more than just a place to play — it’s a place where our kids are growing, learning, and having a blast. Can’t recommend i"
