Gymkidz isn’t just another kids’ activity programme — it’s the benchmark for physical development in early childhood. Since 2006, we have proudly brought world-class movement education to children across Singapore, partnering with preschools to help young learners build strength, confidence, coordination, and joy through purposeful play.

A Legacy of Expertise and Excellence

Our story begins with Mr Ee Siew Kiat, a pioneer in early childhood physical education. Mr Ee established the renowned Tumble Tots programme in Singapore in 1986, laying the foundation for structured child movement development in the region. After years of shaping physical curricula and coaching educators, he took his expertise to the UK as the Global Technical Director of Tumble Tots, leading programme standards internationally. Drawing on decades of deep industry knowledge and proven methodology, Mr Ee returned to Singapore in 2006 to found Gymkidz — bringing global best practice to our local context.

This unique blend of international expertise and local focus is what makes Gymkidz a trusted leader in the field.

A Comprehensive, Holistic Approach

Gymkidz is more than just a physical activity class — it is a purposeful physical development programme designed for children from infancy to early school age. We help young learners grow not just in motor skills but in confidence, resilience, and character. Our programme intentionally supports key developmental domains including physical, cognitive, emotional, and social skills, meeting the full spectrum of early childhood needs.

Our curriculum is delivered using over 250 specially designed pieces of equipment — all safe, age-appropriate, and geared to making learning playful, engaging, and effective.

Delivered Where Children Are

Gymkidz is a mobile enrichment programme — we bring our equipment, expertise, and structured lessons directly to preschool centres. This flexible delivery means schools don’t need to worry about space or infrastructure. Instead, children get a dynamic physical experience right in their familiar learning environment.

Impact That Matters

Over the years, Gymkidz has worked with hundreds of preschools in Singapore and beyond, helping thousands of children unlock confidence, joy in movement, and the physical foundations that support lifelong wellbeing. Teachers, parents, and children alike consistently tell us how weeks of Gymkidz sessions lead to stronger coordination, higher engagement, and happier learners ready to explore more.


A Growing Global Presence

The Gymkidz approach to early childhood physical development has proven its impact not only in Singapore, but internationally.

In Hanoi, Gymkidz began operations in August 2016, introducing our GymKidz Goes to School model to the local preschool community. Within just a few months, the programme was implemented across 7 schools, with more than 3,000 children participating in Gymkidz classes by November 2016. This rapid adoption reflected strong demand for a structured, high-quality physical development programme grounded in proven methodology.

Building on this success, Gymkidz expanded into Shanghai, where the GymKidz Goes to School model was introduced to selected preschools in February 2017. By June 2017, the Gymkidz programme further established its presence with operations at VivoCity Shanghai, making our curriculum accessible to an even wider community of young learners.

Today, Gymkidz’s growing international footprint reflects the strength, consistency, and adaptability of our programme. Wherever we go, the goal remains the same: to deliver world-class physical development experiences that give children the strongest possible start.
