Mini-Gym
Mini-Gym is similar to PlayGym but for our 3-5yr olds, this includes GymFun as a teaching programme based on the fundamental movement patterns of gymnastics. The appeal is that it offers fun and action packed activities while promoting good body management and movement awareness. It lays a good movement foundation for children who may wish to develop their skills in sports outside of the GymSports arena.
Children can enjoy GymFun at their own pace, in a non competitive, non threatening and coeducational environment. Playgym is an early childhood philosophy which assists in the development of children under 5 years. Following on from SPARCS (Sport and recreation New Zealand) Active Movement initiative, Playgym gives early childhood educators parents and caregivers the opportunity to participate with their children in active play whilst developing all areas of their body an mind. Playgym is built on the belief that moving and learning together is fun.
It embraces a philosophy of providing open-ended, broad-based, child-centered and fundamental activities to promote the development of children into healthy, active and social adults. Gymsports clubs run classes that are full of activities to encourage brain development, balancing, primitive reflex inhibition, gross motor skills, vision and development of fundamental movement patterns.
