Lead Instructor & Program Director
At Little Grapplers, we believe in growing together. Our program includes dedicated parent–child activities that strengthen family bonds, build confidence, and support early motor development. When children train with a parent by their side, they feel safer, more motivated, and more willing to explore and learn. These shared moments create meaningful memories while nurturing coordination, self-control, emotional connection, and a lasting sense of support and belonging.
By participating in the activities, you help your child explore movement, balance, and body awareness while giving them the confidence to try new things.
When a child sees you right there beside them participating, smiling, encouraging it builds a strong foundation of safety and belonging.
Parents and children have fun together, laugh together, and learn together. These moments strengthen bonds that last a lifetime.
In a fast-paced routine, giving your child this exclusive time just the two of you creates meaningful memories that stay with you both forever.
