I love this school it is so fun my daughter (I'm not gonna disclose private information names my…read morename etc. sorry) she has been there for about a good 6,7 years she loves it but it doesn't have like much technique classes I pretty sure they said in the book it is more like an all in one class and it's only in one class a week and I'm pretty sure if you want more classes you can book them but I don't really do that. Sometimes they don't finish all the stuff they need to cover in one week but it's only SOMETIMES. And I kinda wish they had more classes a week you know. And one last thing they don't wear a mask which isn't that good but they do keep it very clean. Thank you Sincerely, A Customer

I found this dance school when looking for dance classes for adults. It's very hard to find here in…read moreBaton Rouge. They offer ballet, jazz dance, yoga, hip hop dance depending on the season. Not only are the classes great but the instructors and the owner are sweethearts and they make you feel comfortable. I will continue to go as long as classes are offered!

I received a very comforting call from one of the employees from there who has been there for quite…read moresome time & I just want to say, that I seen the true Holy Spirit in that lady. We talked for almos 30 minutes & if it wasn't for her call, my review would have stayed the same but I am very grateful & thankful that she reached out when she did not even respond though she didn't have too. She is really the type of character I was needing to see & I am so THANKFUL for her.. She definitely made the situation feel better ‍

This is such a great place to bring kids if you want to get them involved in a social and…read morestructured (and fun!) environment outside of school. It's also a great precursor to other physical activities like dance and sports (both of which are offered at little gym albeit in a limited form). Friendliness and positivity towards one another is highly promoted which helps to create a welcoming environment for everyone new and old. The instructors are enthusiastic and have good control over the flow and pacing of the class. Skill building begins as soon as the child walks in when they take off their shoes and put them in the cubbies, and playing with other kids and sharing toys in the lobby area before class. They learn to follow routines, follow directions during warm up (doing what the songs or the instructors say to do) and practice their gymnastics skills on the plentifully available equipment, all the while learning to share, take turns and use their manners. No other kids activity (that I've seen) comes close to the Little Gym's flexibility. There are Saturday classes for all or nearly all age groups which is great for 9-5 families, and no long commitments required. I couldn't recommend a better place.

Most of the activities are structured classes though they tend to change it up a little everytime and the instructors are pretty good at keeping the kids engaged.

My daughter attended for a couple of years and she loved it. They have a one way screen (so the kids aren't distracted) for parents who want to sit in and wait for their children to finish dance practice. These children are taught many forms of dance including ballet, tap, and tumbling. The prices are kind of high though and so are the picture packages and the dance recital costumes however that's anywhere you go if you're putting your child in dance lessons. Dance recitals are held at The B.R. River center.
