Luisa Da Silva, Owner
Hello, I’m Luisa, mother of two wonderful daughters, and I’ve always dreamed of creating a place where children can move, laugh, and learn in a playful and safe environment. With The Little Gym Bonn, I’ve made this dream come true!
How did it all begin? It all started when my then 2-year-old daughter expressed her wish to learn a handstand (or as she adorably called it, a “handtant”). I began searching for the perfect program for her and found it—but not in Bonn.
Then we discovered The Little Gym in Cologne. My husband was skeptical at first, but after attending a trial class – which we could observe through the gym’s large glass windows – all doubts disappeared. The session was led by competent and passionate instructors who guided the children with care and expertise. When our daughter came out of class with a radiant smile, we knew: this was exactly what we had been looking for.
We discovered The Little Gym—the only location in Germany at the time, in Cologne. My husband, the skeptic in our family, wasn’t initially convinced. But after just one trial class, which we watched through large glass windows, his opinion completely changed. Within five minutes, he was the one asking where we could sign up so our daughter could attend weekly classes. The instructors were skilled, caring, and passionate. Seeing our daughter leave the class with a beaming smile confirmed it for us: This was the right place!
At The Little Gym Bonn, it’s all about giving children a safe space where they can be their best selves and grow at their own pace! Every child is unique, and we create an environment where they can thrive—while having tons of fun! It’s no coincidence that our motto is **SERIOUS FUN!** There’s nothing more rewarding than watching our little ones make progress and beam with pride as they master new skills—whether it’s hopping on one leg or doing a forward roll on the balance beam.
As a trained secondary school teacher, I’ve always been passionate about supporting children on their journeys. What excites me most about The Little Gym is its well-thought-out educational concept, which combines movement and learning in a unique way. That’s why I knew: The Little Gym belongs in Bonn!
In a world that’s becoming increasingly digital, I believe it’s more important than ever to give children real, tangible experiences—physically, socially, and emotionally.
From parent-child classes to advanced gymnastics, exclusive birthday parties, exciting holiday camps, and themed events, we offer something for every family and every child.
My goal for The Little Gym Bonn isn’t just to create a place for kids. I hope to build a community for families. While your children are lovingly guided by our trained instructors, you can relax with a cup of coffee or tea, connect with other parents, or simply take a breather (we know how valuable those moments are!).
Curious? Come visit us! Starting in March 2025, we’ll open our doors and can’t wait to welcome you and your children to The Little Gym Bonn. Let’s discover together just how magical childhood can be!
