The Little Gym of West Seattle

we feel so lucky to have found The Little Gym and Teacher Dillon. he is truly a gem in the world of baby gymnastics. our 9-month-old absolutely lights up every time class starts and that’s entirely thanks to Dillon’s energy, intuition, and deep respect for each child’s unique developmental pace. what sets him apart is his incredible ability to push our baby’s growing edge just enough to support progress without ever overwhelming her. he’s a baby whisperer-meets-gymnastics coach: confident, kind, endlessly encouraging, and always in tune with what the littles need. from motor skills to confidence to joy, we’ve seen it all grow in our little one thanks to Dillon’s gentle, playful, and skillful approach. every session is a perfect balance of challenge and nurture. we can’t recommend The Little Gym enough and if you’re lucky enough to get a spot in Teacher Dillon’s class, take it and never let go!

I enrolled my son in this gym when he was just seven months old, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. The staff working with the children are incredibly professional and patient. My son has enjoyed every moment and learned so much from songs to movements and activities. Enrolling him in this gym is truly one of the best decisions I’ve made for him. We created so many beautiful memories together, and I highly recommend it to any parent without hesitation. Your children will have an amazing time! I would also like to especially thank Mr. Duane for his wonderful way of interacting with the kids. My son loves him so much that as soon as he sees him, he runs to him and gives him a big hug. Even during class, he often goes to sit on Mr. Duane’s lap, and Mr. Duane welcomes him with so much love and care. Thank you for everything!

We've taken our kiddo to two different Little Gyms (one in Houston and this one in West Seattle) and both have been amazing. The entire staff is patient, nurturing, and encouraging. I also wanted to give a very public shout out to Teacher Ally who is really just the most patient and kind human and truly has a remarkable gift for teaching. I'm gonna be sad when we outgrow the Little Gym.

The Little Gym of West Seattle is a local gem. The teachers are the kindest people you'll ever meet and are so perceptive at knowing what each kid needs and how to help them. My daughters have loved attending weekly classes and summer camps. My oldest daughter even participated in a gymnastics meet and it was such a huge confidence booster for her. Most recently, we held our 5 year-old's birthday party there - AMAZING! The level of calm and organization was unexpected and so lovely. The instructors took care of everything from table set-up and decorations. There was some free-play at first and then they led a whole "class" of my daughter's favorite activities. We had kids ranging from 1-12 years old at the party and somehow everyone participated and had a great time. And then, Teacher Ally offered to use my phone and take photos of the celebration. I seriously had been so busy catching up with people that those were the only photos I have of my daughter's birthday party and I am so grateful!

We love our teacher Ally so much! She’s so patient, compassionate and attentive. Great lessons and they treat us like family, both of our kids have grown through Dillon, Dana & now Ally. We’re so grateful for our Little Gym Family ❤️ both of our daughters have been here since 4 months old. I fully believe it’s why they’re both advanced in gross motor skills and social interactions. Thank you TLG!
