Was really excited and looking forward to taking my child to the Tuesday morning class last week. Only to show up and be told by the staff member that the regular scheduled classes that week were closed due to spring break and they were currently only doing a special spring break class at the moment. I took the day off that day JUST to take my child to said class. When I asked the staff member where that information that the regular classes were changed was posted because I had looked online before showing up that day she said online. As I walked away, I looked on the website and there was no information indicating such. Really disappointed, would've liked to experience this class with my child, I think they probably would've enjoyed it. read more

They have great classes of gymnastics for kids and my daughter really enjoyed her time there. The teachers are nice and helpful.

I had my daughter's fourth birthday here recently. I was worried that the older kids in attendance might not have as much fun, but the team here was great! They kept all of the kids super engaged and having a blast the whole time. My eight year-old said he had the best time ever. Highly recommend having a birthday party here, the team takes care of everything and it's totally reasonably priced. read more

Shady Cancellation Practices - Avoid This Gym! Think twice before signing up at MYGYM Encino. The classes might be fun for kids, but the management uses underhanded tactics to trap you in a membership. I provided a formal 30-day written cancellation notice by email, exactly as I was initially told. Despite this, they charged me for two extra months. When I confronted them for a refund, the excuses began. First, they claimed they needed proof of my email. Then, after I provided it, they changed the rules and said I had to cancel through their online portal--which, of course, was impossible because the portal itself said my account "was not eligible for online cancellation." This is a deliberate scheme to give families the runaround. They design a system where cancellation is a moving target, ensuring they can continue charging you. It's a dishonest way to treat customers. My daughter had a good time, but no amount of fun is worth dealing with such an unprofessional and shady business practice. Steer clear. read more

My 4-year-old son has been attending MyGym Encino weekly for a few months, and it's been such a positive experience. We initially tried the $29 unlimited week pass, and he loved it so much that I knew we had to keep coming back. He started with the age-appropriate gymnastics class and then tried the Ninja class--which he was so excited about just from the name alone! Both classes are an hour and are very similar in structure: warm-ups, stretching, obstacle courses, rule review, imagination play, free play, and multiple water/restroom breaks. The sessions are fun, structured, and well-supervised. If a child has trouble following directions, they may be given a short 2-minute break outside the play area--which I think is a fair and gentle approach. The staff is incredibly patient and encouraging. My son tends to get distracted or follow other kids off task, but with consistent attendance, he's already showing improvement. He's had a couple of timeouts, and they were handled calmly and constructively. Huge thanks to Sunshine, Destiny, and Ro for making each session engaging and fun--your kindness and energy make a difference! As far as facilities go, the gym does have a distinct scent--but IMO it's nothing unexpected for a space filled with mats and active kids. I can understand some parents being concerned by it, but I've personally seen staff wiping down equipment regularly, and I believe they do an appropriate job maintaining cleanliness. When we first started, pink socks were the only color available in my son's size, and we were later offered blue and green options once restocked. My son didn't care--he just wanted to wear the socks so he could jump in and play. I just want to add, if I ask him his favorite color, he often says "rainbow." I saw a review suggesting some kind of agenda, carrying assumptions or judgments that don't reflect my experience at all. It's not about being "progressive"--it's kids being kids and to me, that says more about childhood joy than anything else. If you're on the fence, I'd recommend starting with a free class (when available) or $29 trial week. Then you'll know if you like the teachers or maybe can't stand the "smell". The gym is located in the back of the plaza, with plenty of parking. My only real wish is that there were more class options around 5pm or later. Still, overall, I'm really happy with MyGym Encino and would definitely recommend it to any parent looking for a fun, structured, and positive space for their child to move, play, and grow. If you have questions about this MyGym location, I highly suggest you contact them directly for the most up to date information, and to avoid any false expectations. read more

Very cute little gym in encino! Very cute little gay flag to welcome the kids as they enter in this safe place to play and learn! We were offered pink socks for my 3 year old son!! How progressive!! Also really cute smell! Almost like this really pungent smell of mold to choke on while your littles run around in this space to get all that pent up energy out! Unfortunately for us, we will not be returning due to some cute issues like our health and political and religious differences! What a way to be so inclusive! Thanks my gym Encino! And no, you cannot clean the smell of mold in a building. It smells like mold because there is an infestation of mold! read more

We love MyGym Encino! From the moment we walk in, my child is always welcomed and feels motivated to participate in the class by how the instructors engage with her. HIGHLY recommend a MyGym birthday party for your little one! We have thrown my child's 2nd and 3rd birthday here and definitely booking for the 4th! The staff will help you set up and take down all decor and food brought in. They engage with all the guests throughout and make the class fun no matter how big or small. Becky and Aliah were amazing for our birthday! We love you guys and thank you so much for your kindness and positive energy everyday. Overall, I highly recommend MyGym to anyone with young children and wanting to book a birthday. read more

Our toddler has been attending My Gym Encino since last September. He attends the waddlers class throughout the week and I have to say, this has really spurred his development on. When he started, he was mostly crawling, but after attending My Gym and seeing the other kiddos his courage to walk grew tremendously. It didn't take long for him to start toddling like a pro. The best part of this location is the staff. I cannot praise them enough. They are very attentive, kind, and caring towards the kids. Every class we have attended, the staff give it 100%. There are so many different activities, and each class has a skill you can take away from the class. I am constantly blown away by how creative they are, as each week they rearrange the furniture to make it a new space. They also set up different skill stations through the space, and again I am always impressed at how creative they are with their equipment and accessories. Honestly, attending My Gym has been great for our little guy, and for me and his Dad too. We have made friends and set up play dates for our kiddo outside of the gym. read more

Love my gym encino! They are very accommodating and great with my daughter! We needed some place for her to run out her energy and my gym is perfect! read more

It seems like we have been coming to My Gym for years - because we have been watching Evan since he was 2 and now he is joined by his sister, Gabi. We have seen them go from beginning gymnastics (nothing like watching a scrum of 3 year olds run around in the same room!) and now Karate. Bottom line, we have always been impressed with the quality of the staff and their interaction with all the children. BTW, we live in New Jersey but get to My Gym once or twice a year. read more

Shawna and Sunni (if I'm spelling their names correctly) are so nice and welcoming. But the nameless manager, that's how unprofessional she is because she doesn't even give a name before approaching my 7 year old and making him feel bad. I wish I could give this place a zero because of the manager. read more

My five-year-old has gone here for almost her entire life and now my one year-old has started going as well. We absolutely love the staff here. The gym is very clean and the instructors are kind, patient, and knowledgeable. They truly adjust the programming to accommodate different ages. And the environment is safe but also interesting for the children. We have a birthday party with multiple different ages of children and it was fun for everyone. I highly recommend it. read more

We hosted our daughter's 3rd birthday at My Gym. The place was immacutely clean, the staff was a delight and the kids had the best time. Becky was fantastic, kind and incredible with our children and guests. Highly recommend! Thank you! read more

Kids have nothing but fun here! The teacher Shawnna is amazing with all the kids. Understands the different needs of each child which is priceless! They do fabulous birthday parties too. Very welcoming spot. read more

Not a mom, but I frequently am tasked with bringing my nephew to My Gym. He is 3 years old and has been attending for the last few months. He absolutely loves it. The structure of the classes are nice and I hope it gives him some more structure before he starts pre-school. There have been a few days where it is him and maybe one or two other kids, so the instructors do more of a free play rather than class. His favorite activities include the trampoline, the slide and the monkey bars. The instructors are great, especially Daisy, Misty, Cesar, Kevin and Becky to name a few. There is a monthly fee (i think about $150/month) and he probably attends 2-3 times a week, so I definitely think it's worth it. read more

I do NOT recommend this place I did a try out class which I arranged with Misty (I believe that was her name, I'm guessing she is a studio manager but not sure). Anyway, I attended Tiny Tykes Friday 11:15am class with my 9 month old and I left feeling this is definitely not for us. I left feeling VERY uncomfortable. As soon as we sat down in the middle of play room waiting for teacher(s) to arrive it smelled like puke, and not puke that just happened, smelled like puke that's been marinating for a while into that floor rug. So that was literally my very first impression of My Gym in Encino. That was in the middle of play area so no way to avoid the smell. Class was taught by a guy and a girl, don't remember the names. There were nice people but just going through the motions as if this is just another job. Teachers, or others parents don't try to foster any interaction between kids at all. Also, throughout this class, I felt a snarky vibe between parents and that's definitely not an environment I want to bring my kid to. After class, I didn't get any calls that asked or showed interest in our feedback. I only got a call that I missed (so she left a voice mail) telling me there is still a discount going on for initiation fee, and that call came from the female teacher as opposed to studio manager (which was also strange). As someone else on Yelp said, I also felt this place is ALL about adding another membership. Which is almost a $100 a month plus initiation fee, but you are on THEIR terms when you can come in. That price will get you once a week visit, that "class" they teach. I asked if outside this class I can bring my baby just to play since it's a gym "membership". They answered they have a play time hour, but they said it was only for this age group and only one time a week etc., basically they made it clear you can't use the gym with your baby when you feel like it, or when you have time, your gym "membership" is completely on THEIR schedule. To sum it up: 1. You pay a monthly membership fee so you can come in on THEIR terms. 2. Classes do not foster any interactions 3. Place is NOT clean and that first impression puke is permanently etched in my memory. 4. Teachers are nice but act like it's just another job for them 5. Very snarky energy and vibe between parents. I think signing up is a waste of money. If you need more info as a parent, feel free to message me. I'm currently looking for another option and once I find something better I will share with you via messages here, just ask me. And thank you for reading! read more

Such jerks! I can't believe they would do that. I came in from out of town for a visit a couple of weeks ago, with my 3 year old. It had been fairly warm and I was seeking out places to occupy my child for a while, yet cool off just a little. Parks were mostly out of the question since there wasn't anything going on indoors. A friend had mentioned this place to me and something about a day pass, so I stopped by and asked if they could accommodate us in any way. I explained that it didn't need to be for the whole day, or hours on end. They said no, they do not offer day passes and were adamant that I needed to sign up and pay for whatever it was I was interested in. So much for that. I'll be sure not to waste time going there again. My friend was so upset that she stopped taking her little ones. read more

We had our daughter's 4th birthday party at My Gym Encino and it was a blast! Classes have always been fun and very educational. The staff really gives their all! At the party, Ashleigh and Kevin were absolutely incredible and kept the energy high! They decorated superbly, made sure everything ran smoothly, welcomed kids into the play area, cut the perfect size pieces of cake, made our daughter feel special and their clean-up was a breeze. They worked tirelessly to ensure every aspect of the party was fun and effortless for us parents and made sure all the details were taken care of. Ashleigh and Kevin even put smiles on all the parents' faces with their well planned games and awesome puppet show. Whether it's a class, a camp or a birthday party (we've now done them all), you can't go wrong with My Gym in Encino. read more

Wow. Talk about a dream team staff. We've been taking our kids here for about one year. Staff are very welcoming and they appear to really love what they do and invest themselves in their work. Our kids are always happy to see them. Of course, the activities are also fun and engaging. We just held a birthday there. The staff was quick to keep things exciting and fresh by changing up the activities at just the right time. Guests were engaged. Unlike a traditional play place that has lots of angles, corners and hideouts, the play area here is one large room where the kids (and parents) can always have facetime with each other. Makes for a pleasant time. Keep up the good work, My Gym. Special shout outs to Ashleigh, Rogelio, and Kevin for being great spirits. Thank you for putting smiles on our kids' faces. read more

It really bums me out to have to write this review but unfortunately, it's necessary because as a parent who is always looking for places to take my kids, I rely heavily on reviews from other parents and their experiences. We've been a part of My Gym since our daughter was 18 months old and originally started attending classes in Honolulu. Since we had to come to California temporarily, we were excited to rejoin My Gym since my daughter loved it so much when we were going in Hawaii. The classes are great for little crawlers and walkers but as the kids get older they begin to need more than just physical activities. Since my daughter enjoyed it so much and because we wanted to make sure she had a good amount social interaction with kids her age, we continued to take her until recently because she got enrolled into preschool. Here's where the two stars come in. During one of my daughter's last classes, she and another boy were fighting over a ball. As I watched from across the room, I could see the tug of war with the ball. No more than three seconds in does it escalate and the boy starts PUNCHING my 4-year old daughter on top of her head. Face red with full force. This was not a pushing match or a shove. The boy full on punched my daughter continuously on her head for several seconds. I watched in HORROR and yelled "HEY" at least 5 times before the teachers finally stepped in and grabbed my daughter. I yelled so loud that everyone in the room looked around to see what happened. As a parent, you never want any harm done to your kids but you know that the reality is at some point pushing and shoving will happen. I just never expected my daughter to be punched by some random kid over a ball. I expected more oversight from the teachers given that there were 2 of them and only 5 kids. Had I not yelled, I don't know how long it would have taken for them to notice and how long that boy would have continued to punch my daughter. Had I not been in utter shock with a cupful of fury, I would have jumped the fence and pulled that kid off the slide where they were and dealt with him myself. You just don't hit little girls....especially little 4 year olds. To add more insult to injury, the teachers seemed clueless on how to deal with the issue as well. They were in shock. Your business is dealing with kids day in and day out yet you don't know how to remedy a situation like this? There was a manager on site that day but despite the commotion, she never came out. The teachers reached out to offer assistance and support by telling me how sweet and nice this boy normally is. That he's never done anything like this and that he's still enrolled in the class. First off, when a boy pummels my kid continuously, I'm not interested in hearing how sweet he is. Listening to them to me that they're in shock and that "he's always been a sweet boy" is annoying. What I would have preferred to hear was that you are taking a firm stance on what happened. Bullying happens every day and when educators and parents sit back, the behavior only escalates. You had a chance to take a stance but rather you giggled it off and let it slide. Tell me you're going to train your staff better so they know how to deal with these situations. Tell me you're going to have the other kid take a break from class. As a result of this incident, my daughter has asked us everyday since that day why "her friend hit her on the head". It's been a week since this happened and she's talking about it. She gets easily anxious anytime another child touches her or accidentally runs into her which wasn't the case before this incident. We spoke to other parents and teachers at one of my daughter's other school and even they said, it could have been handled better. We took my daughter to go see her pediatrician to make sure she was ok and for peace of mind. When we described what happened to her doctor, she even said that it was abnormal behavior for that boy to react that way. I'm sure some parents may read this and tell me "buck up" - it happens but come talk to me again when your 4 year old daughter gets punched by a boy. Had this occurred when they were 15 years older then it would have been assault but because they're kids, I'm just told "it's ok, it happens". If you're in dire need of activities for your little one, I'm just going to say you do have other options. If you must go here, pay close attention to your kid because assuming they got it covered once your kid walks through that gate is a bad assumption. read more

I took each of my kids here to check it out. For my daughter, I loved it and was ready to sign her up. I was planning to try one more class with my son to be sure bc he didnt do so well in his trial class, maybe on account of there only being 1 other kid present. They were having a promotion with half off enrollment or 0 enrollment or something. I went home and tried to register online. There was some kind of issue and it said to try again later. (I'll try to add my screenshot of the registration page after I write this.) So I tried again a few more times which isnt easy when you have little ones clamoring at your legs. I kept getting the same message and this is after painstakingly entering in names, addresses, credit card information from my phone and typing with thumbs. So finally I call and leave a message asking if I can sign up over the phone or if I need to come in and do it in person. NO ONE ever returns the call so...I am trying gymboree and another dance studio where they will actually take my money and provide a service. The teachers were lovely and I really want to give this place 5 stars but I cant bc I cant enroll. read more

So happy My Gym was able to reopen safely! My daughter Gracie is 4 and a half and she loves their Whiz kids classes. Take advantage of the great unlimited special they have going on now. Kevin and Cesar are great with the kids! Thanks My Gym:) read more

My Gym is fun, clean, and most of all my little boy LOVES it! On top of it, they are super flexible with your schedule. If you can't make it to class, they will let you do make up days or freeze your payments altogether if needed. Here is a tip...take classes that Kelly is teaching. She's like a big kid! read more

We had a blast here on Sunday for the Waddlers class. Aliya and Missy are so passionate about making sure all kiddos have fun. My son was a little fussy when we arrived and they both did everything they could to get him acclimated. He ended up having so much fun and we will for sure be coming back! read more

I've been coming here with my 1 year old for the past 3 months and I can't say enough good things about this location and the staff. The staff here are worth their weight in gold as they are SO wonderful with the kiddos. This location is clean and well maintained and the activities are moved around weekly-as if your kiddo could get bored here. Coming here with my little man is the highlight of our week, I'm so glad we joined MyGym. read more

We've been coming to MyGym Encino since our daughter was around a year old. And she has loved every single moment of it. The staff is awesome!!! I can't say enough about them. It's obvious they care for the kids. We had our daughter's 3rd birthday party at her favorite place a few weekends ago and I was impressed at how well they executed all the details and how timely it all went. Family and friends were very impressed. All the kids had a GREAT time. MyGym is the perfect place for our daughter's social skills as well as her development. We love MyGym Encino! Thank you MYGym for everything you do!! read more

My Gym has quickly become the highlight of my little guy's week. We have been going since he was about 6 months old, and every teacher that we have ever encountered has been nothing but wonderful. The activities are always age appropriate, I don't think we have ever done the same thing twice! The teachers are so patient and sweet, as my little one is very slow to warm. We did his first birthday at My Gym as well, it was so easy and fun for kids of all ages that we invited, I would definitely do it again. Thank you My Gym and all of their awesome teachers for an incredible experience that my little guy loves! read more

My little man and I love it every Thursday morning at 9:15! We love it so much we sometimes make it to the Tuesday classes.. Nothing brings a smile to my face more than watching my son run around happy and exploring with supervised activities and exploring his body and movement on safe equipment! Can't wait for tomorrow's class! Thanks again for the freedom to let him learn, explore and be a kid! read more

We've been coming to this MyGym since my son was probably 3 or 4 months old and have no plans of stopping any time soon. I've visited other MyGyms in the Valley, and the Encino location is the biggest, best equipped and has the greatest staff. We've moved in the last year and drive here for class even though the Northridge location is much closer. The activities they do each week are not only fun but also help the little ones with their gross motor skill development. There is no doubt in my mind that work we've done at MyGym on balance and strength have contributed to my son reaching milestones early. The most important thing, however, is that it is FUN! My son gets really excited at even the mention of MyGym, and I get excited about the thought of separation time. read more

Wonderful staff who are caring, encouraging, and fun. Very clean and well kept. My 1 year old loves coming here and I feel like she is getting excellent preparation for preschool. read more

Love this place! My son and I go weekly and his absolutely has a blast! Very clean, safe, and the teachers are very professional, friendly, and fun! They also are wonderful at helping make sure our kiddos stay safe while having fun! Lots of things to climb on and is great for toddlers! Highly recommend! read more

I love their mommy and me class! My daughter has a wonderful time and I have learned a lot from the staff and other parents which is something all new mothers need. It's a very welcoming and judgement free environment. I would definitely recommend their toddle class as well! read more

I've been bringing my daughter here for almost 2 years and she is still so obsessed. We've taken classes from most of the coaches and with the exception of one, I think they are all great. Our favorites (and who we've consistently had for most of our classes) are Clarissa and Misty. They are always so energetic and great with the kids and never have an "off" day. Classes consist of free play, a song, dance, learning and practicing new skills, puppet shows, swings or rings, and sometimes a game. We had my daughter's 2nd birthday party here and she had the best time. It was so easy for me as they supplied everything except the food. The parties are also cheaper than other indoor play gyms. Over the past couple of years we've tried many different classes and My Gym has always been my daughter's favorite. Whenever I ask my daughter what she wants to do during the day, she says My Gym! Misty and Clarissa, never leave- you will make many kids and parents sad! We love you! read more

My Gym - Gyms Near Me - Encino, California

After trying numerous classes with my daughter, I'm wondering what took us five months to decide to come to My Gym! I am super impressed with the class and activities - it was perfectly planned, the teachers were great, and the activities were apropos to the age. It was a large class, but I felt as if my daughter and I were treated as individuals. Loved the swing segment, as well as tummy time (Charlotte lasts half the time at home). The gym itself is conveniently located, clean, and equipped with everything you can think of. I can't wait to watch my little one grow over the years as a member of My Gym! read more

We've been brining our kids here for several years due to it being the closest to our house. It's a good place and my kids love taking classes there and going to birthday parties there. My main gripe is that they always say the AC isn't working and it made for hot uncomfortable parties or classes. I am updating my review and the business responded the AC issue has been resolved. If that's resolved then I really have no issues as it's a very organized place and the kids always love going there. read more

We've been members at My Gym Encino for about a year. My daughter has been busy and physical since literally her birth and so we needed an outlet for her exuberance. My Gym has provided that and so much more. I had undiagnosed postpartum anxiety and looking forward to this as part of our schedule actually me get into a groove and get through it. My daughter absolutely comes alive when we get there. It's so warm and welcoming - it's truly a community. She and I have both met wonderful friends and I love the confidence it's given her. She was a little timid around strangers at first given that she's not in daycare at this point, but now she's so outgoing with kids and "helper" adults. The practice and play open gym is great and I'm thinking about signing her up for two classes a week since it's so perfect for our needs. We love this place and I plan to come here as long as she will let me! read more

We love MyGym! My little dude Mason I learning to be around other kiddos and not just cling to me! And its just the cutest thing ever to see all of the little babies interact! read more

This place deserves all the praise in the world. The staff and the owner are amazing. They are always so welcoming, professional and have your child's best interest at heart. My oldest son attended classes here from age 2 to 4 and now our second son who is 2 attends their Waddler class. They love this My Gym versus all the other My Gym's In the valley. This place is very clean, secured with baby gates, padded for safety and they have a security guard in the parking lot at all times. Classes for children are very well organized, It is so much fun to come and spend time with your little ones at My Gym. Very thankful for My Gym Encino. I drive out from Woodland Hills because I believe in the staff! They are great with children! Thank you My Gym! read more
