We also host unforgettable birthday parties! If you’re not familiar with My Gym, check out our website, Instagram, or Facebook to see the fun we have and our passion for children’s fitness!
Inclusion Statement:
At My Gym, we celebrate diversity and welcome individuals from all walks of life. As an inclusive workplace, we encourage our team members to bring their authentic selves to work. Our mission is to create #MomentsThatMatter—not just for our clients and their children but for our teachers as well. We strive to build a team that reflects the vibrant communities we serve, embracing all ethnicities, genders, beliefs, sexual identities, disabilities, and cultures. Every individual is valued for their unique contributions, helping us foster a rich and supportive environment for everyone.
My Gym Children’s Fitness Center and Noah's Art Studios are a lot more than just “Mommy and Me" classes. From first steps to first handstands, and holding a pencil to canvas painting we are committed to creating wonderful Moments That Matter. Our gyms and studios are safe, colorful, and oh-so-clean spaces, and our staff pride themselves on providing a fun, safe, and meaningful experience to each and every family who enters through our doors.
Every day in more than 700 locations worldwide, My Gym kids attend structured, noncompetitive and age-appropriate classes and birthday parties taught by incredibly talented, fun, and happy grown-ups. Our curriculum grows with children and features a wide variety of activities designed to promote coordination, agility, flexibility, motor skills, and social skills. Whether it’s a toddler in a parent-participation class wiggling through a warm-up, or a school-aged Ninja kid conquering our Warped Wall, the FUN never stops!
In the Charlotte area, next to every My Gym you'll find a Noah's Art Studio. With multiple locations we provide hundreds of families an opportunity to adventure in art. Our mixed media classes help children build the confidence they need to take on a world of crazy. Speaking of crazy, just like our gym's, our studios are made for fun... the kid kind of fun. Our teammates are not only artists, but they are big kid's that love to make a mess! (and then clean up after themselves).
Our brand promise is to love and nurture all children through meaningful play and creativity, and it’s a promise we take to heart.
We hope you’ll join us on this adventure!
About the Owners:
Joe and Kristen have been entrepreneurs since the very beginning, getting our start in college selling books door-to-door with the Southwestern Publishing Company in Nashville, TN. We moved to Charlotte in 2006 when Joe began work on his master's degree and Kristen jumped headfirst into the My Gym world working with Joe's sister and brother-in-law (Beth and Ryan) to build programs and establish the "Kid's Fitness" partnership as a strong, supportive, and thriving family of businesses. Joe and Kristen have expanded the Kid's Fitness family to include the Kid's Art family: Noah's Art.
