The Lehigh Valley is getting a new activity center for children.
The Little Gym is set to open in Trexlertown Dec. 15.
The Little Gym is designed to be fun for children while supporting their physical, cognitive, and social development.
Located at 6900 Hamilton Blvd, The Little Gym of Trexlertown will bring movement-based learning, gymnastics classes, and confidence-building programs for families.
The new facility is owned by Matthew and Nichole Pitz, parents of three children, who have been Trexlertown area entrepreneurs for the past five years.
“Trexlertown and the surrounding area is a growing, family-driven community, and we wanted to create a place that reflects that energy,” said Matthew Pitz. “The Little Gym isn’t just about movement; it’s about giving kids a space to build confidence, make friends, and discover what they’re capable of. We’re proud to bring something so positive to the Lehigh Valley.”
The Little Gym of Trexlertown will celebrate with a grand opening event on Jan. 3.
The Little Gym of Trexlertown’s classes utilize movement-based learning and imaginative play to enhance coordination, listening and intellectual skills.
Popular options include Parent/Child classes, which allow parents to help their child explore motor and social-skill development, and preschool and grade school gymnastics classes that teach students tumbling and apparatus techniques while using positive motivation as a learning tool.
The Little gym currently has nearly 400 locations across 31 countries.
