What Happens in a My Gym Class in Singapore
If you are new to My Gym, the first question is usually simple: what actually happens inside the room.
A My Gym class is not free play, and it is not a strict lesson either. It is coach led, structured play designed to build developmental milestones through movement, listening, and social moments, one session at a time.
The real goal is milestones, not just activity
Parents often join because they want their child to be more active. Then they notice the bigger shift: confidence, listening, turn taking, and the courage to try something new.
My Gym describes this as building children physically, emotionally, socially, and confidently, with a strong emphasis on the “I can do it” spirit.
What a typical class feels like
While every age group is different, most classes follow a rhythm that helps children feel safe and engaged.
1. A warm welcome that reduces hesitation
For younger children, separation can be the hardest part. A consistent welcome and familiar routines help them settle faster over time.
2. Coach led movement that builds motor skills
Expect age appropriate climbing, balancing, crawling, and coordination activities. These are designed to strengthen gross motor foundations, the kind that supports daily independence later.
My Gym highlights motor skills like balance, climbing, and coordination as key outcomes of class.
3. Listening and early communication moments
Movement based programs often include prompts, cues, and simple sequences that build listening. Over time, many children start responding faster, following instructions better, and participating more confidently.
My Gym positions class as supporting early speech and listening foundations alongside physical development.
4. Social practice without pressure
Sharing, waiting for a turn, copying a friend, or doing an activity alongside others, these are tiny moments that add up. It is social confidence, built gently.
My Gym explicitly calls out social confidence and sharing as part of what the class is designed to build.
Why the experience feels personal
A major difference in a child’s experience comes down to attention. My Gym emphasises small teacher to student ratios and trained staff to support engagement and safety.
That means your child is not just moving. They are being noticed, encouraged, and guided through their effort.
What parents usually notice after a few sessions
You may see different changes depending on your child’s age and personality, but common ones include:
- Trying new obstacles faster
- Better comfort around new adults and peers
- Improved ability to follow simple instructions
- More confidence in climbing, balancing, and independent movement
- A happier transition from “watching” to “joining”
My Gym coaches also state that many children show progress within a few sessions, although every child’s timeline is different.
How to choose the right class for your child
The easiest way is to match by age and readiness. My Gym has age based programs starting from infants, and also has a preschool readiness program and a student care program for older kids.
If you want to see whether your child enjoys the environment, start with a trial and choose the centre closest to you. You can view My Gym Singapore locations and then book based on your preferred centre.
