Mini Hoppers

Mini-Hoppers Classes

As is in all of our classes, we use movement to teach life lessons, so besides being challenged physically, they will learn how to be part of a community and to get along in a group setting. 

*Child must be age of class in order to actively enroll. Example: if the child is 3 years old, please enroll them in an Almost Me/Just Me class. However, if the child will be turning the next age during the session, you can place them on a waitlist for the next class for the month following their birthday. Example: if the child is 3, but will turn 4 in February, you may place them on a waitlist for a Lil Hopper/Jr Hopper class with a requested start in March.

“Minihops has been a great experience for my child so far.  In a few months, we have noticed the vast improvements he has made in body control, balance, and sensing others and things around him.

Our child requires occupational therapy, and even the therapist has noticed how much more confident he is about doing things that are challenging, and even does more than what is asked!  Coach John has been a great help to us and we greatly appreciate the effect that it has had with him.”
