My Gym Richmond

My Gym was born out of a passion to teach children in a fun, physically engaging environment. The teachers delight in seeing children reach those incredible milestones – from the tentative first steps to tumbling down soft mats – sharing parents’ excitement at the children’s achievements. My Gym’s goal is to create a space where children feel loved and supported so their self-esteem and confidence can flourish, developing from active, giggling children into happy and confident adults. They cherish every one of their members.

My Gym Richmond opened in 2019 and is conveniently located near Sainsbury’s off the A316 in Richmond, with parking readily available. The bespoke space has all the facilities that the children – and parents – could desire. Since July 2024 Majestic Fitness Richmond has been managing My Gym, and they’ve made the space even more magical for your little ones

Classes

The core offering of My Gym is the programme of classes that takes place there, for children aged three months to 10 years. The majority of the classes are part of the main movement and gymnastics programme, but there are also two dance classes as well as a few special classes that run alongside the main programme. From first steps to handstands, My Gym grows with your little ones.

All classes offer a FREE trial, which can be booked here.
