my first gym, craigieburn

We all know how good movement is for children, but have you ever thought about taking your baby to the gym? No not YOUR gym! A gym just for babies and children! That’s exactly what you will find at MyFirstGym in Craigieburn. 

They run classes from Monday to Saturday and the large space is set up to host more than 60 different types of classes depending on your child’s age, stage and what they enjoy.

Mamma loves a chance to meet other Mammas and get her babies bodies moving. Their goal is to encourage fitness in children but their classes offer children and families so much more than that: it could be a weekly meet up to make new friends, a chance to develop new skills, and opportunities to grow their confidence.

MyFirstGym welcomes children aged 0 to 15 and not only are there specific classes for each age range, there are so many to choose from including dance, fun and play, martial arts, obstacle courses, sensory, gymnastics, ninja warrior and more all taught by their awesome professional trainers. 

Like the adult gyms, MyFirstGym is based on memberships but you can decide how many classes you want to go to per week and then pay a weekly fee, either for a length of time (6 months) or a monthly basis. They also do one off packages of 10 sessions plus joining fee.

Once you become a member, you get a lovely little welcome pack with an adorable t-shirt for the kiddos to wear: it makes them feel part of this exciting new club! Membership also allows you to access their free play which means you can just turn up with your babies and let them run around and play in the free play area (during set times and consists of soft play) while you sit and relax, or even join in, whatever Mamma prefers.  

They also have party packages for birthdays, and run events each week on top of classes such as holiday camps, date nights and talent shows. They really do have something for all. 

If you’re still unsure, they often offer free sessions to see if the children like it first – to find out more and get those babies active - click here

Oh, there is ample free parking outside and plenty of space inside to leave prams.
