MLC Gymnastics Club

Last updated April 2026

Watch your little tumbler light up as they master cartwheels and handstands at MLC Gymnastics Club in Kew, Melbourne’s trusted junior gymnastics hub. The airy, purpose-built space is packed with foam pits, spring floors, and mini beams that make flips feel safe and fun. Coaches trained in early-childhood development know exactly how to coach toddlers as young as two while also stretching confident six-year-olds. Special school holiday programs pop up during term breaks, turning energy into skill. With a focus on building strength, coordination, and confidence, it’s the kind of place that turns Monday afternoons into highlight reels at home. **What to Bring** Comfortable, fitted gym clothes that move with them. Bare feet or grippy socks only—no shoes on the floor. A water bottle labelled with their name. A small towel for after the session. Snack for the car ride home; the café next door is handy for a coffee while you wait. **Best Age Range** Tiny Tumblers for 2–4 year-olds. Kinder Gym for 4–6 year-olds. Junior Squad for 6–12 year-olds. **Good to Know** Holiday programs book out fast—register online the day bookings open. Drop-in casual sessions are available most afternoons after school. Street parking is free on side streets; early arrivals snag the closest spots. Check the website for term-time timetables and holiday session dates. **Nearby** Grab a coffee and a treat at The Kettle Black in South Yarra, just 7 minutes away. Let off extra steam at the Kew Recreation Centre playground on High Street. **Tips From Other Parents** Arrive 10 minutes early on the first day so your child can meet the coach and see the space before the group starts. Label everything—goggles, hair ties, water bottles—because the foam pits are sneaky hiding places. If your child is shy, sit quietly at the back; they’ll often join in once they see others having fun.
