While We All Stayed Home...
We Created a Facebook Group to help keep us all connected!

And a George's Gym Youtube Channel to help us all Stay Healthy!
During the shutdown like so many other businesses for children, George's Gym was temporarily closed. During that time we were asked by one of our Schools to create a few videos of some of our fun exercises to share with their students during the closure. However, after making the videos, we decided that the best way for us to use our talents and do our part was to share them with EVERYONE.
So we created the George's Gym YouTube Channel!!!!
Our videos feature familiar warm-ups, exercises, and stretches from our classes, but it is all presented and explained in a way that children who have never done our program, should also be able to follow along. Everything is done without our mats and usual equipment, so as to show easy ways to recreate the activities and exercises at home!
We encourage you to use these videos as a tool to get those bodies moving whenever you/they feel like it! Our goal in creating this is, of course, to help keep those kiddos healthy, but also bring some smiles and a little fun during these uncertain times.
Lastly...Please be kind....we are NOT professional "YouTubers" by any stretch of the imagination.
Be Safe, Be Well & Have FUN!

George's Gym Programs Are Accessible to EVERYONE
The focus of George's Gym has always been to bring quality programming to ALL children. With that in mind, we have decided to restructure our pricing so we can offer a more affordable cost for our classes in underserved communities.
For the past 4 years we have been teaching many classes for State Funded Daycare's from the South Shore to Calumet Park. We have learned that many companies will not travel to these neighborhoods thus greatly limiting the number of enrichment programs their children have access to. We have also learned that ALL of the Owners of these Daycare's pay for any extra classes out of pocket, as asking the State to pay more for extra programming is not an option. So we have decided it's time to make them a priority and make it easier for them to have the same advantages as the children in all the other communities we serve.
We strongly believe that ALL children deserve equal opportunities and in this small way, we are trying to do our part. You can now know, that when you book a class with George's Gym you are helping to provide the same class for another child that might not otherwise have the opportunity. Please take a moment to check out our new prices and help us spread the word!
