The Little Gym<\/a> owner Matthew Pitz said the gym helps kids that are 4 months old to 12 years old. It teaches building confidence through every stage of childhood, in three ways: get moving, brain boost, and citizen kid, he said.<\/p>\nThe gym is\u00a0set to officially open on Dec. 15 at 6900 Hamilton Blvd., Unit 29, in the Trexlertown section of Lower Macungie Township.<\/p>\n
The gym focuses on the child’s total development through gymnastics, Pitz said.<\/p>\n
He said the gym has coaches focused on teaching classes that are\u00a0serious fun.<\/p>\n
“It’s a wonderful place to coach and develop kids,” he said.<\/p>\n
Popular options include parent\/child classes, allowing parents to help their child explore motor and social-skill development; and preschool and grade school gymnastics classes that teach students tumbling and apparatus techniques while using positive motivation as a learning tool.<\/p>\n
The facility also will offer birthday bashes in a variety of themes that feature instructor-led games and music.<\/p>\n
Pitz said his love of coaching drew him to the gym.<\/p>\n
On Jan. 3, The Little Gym of Trexlertown will host a grand opening event, with Founding Member specials available for early enrollees. Initial members will get $10 off monthly membership rates and a waived initiation fee.<\/p>\n
The Little Gym has around 400 locations in 31 countries.<\/p>\n
The Trexlertown gym will operate 9 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Saturdays and 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sundays.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"U.
