At MiniAthletics, we empower children from walking age up to 8 years old to move with confidence, joy, and imagination. Our sessions blend the magic of themed adventures—where kids might become astronauts, pirates, or superheroes—with structured activities that build key movement skills like running, jumping, and throwing.
But this isn’t just about fun and games (though there’s plenty of that!). We develop physical literacy—the ability, confidence, and desire to be active for life. Research shows that early childhood is the golden window for learning how to move well, and our sessions support this critical development through play, storytelling, and meaningful repetition.
We don’t push early specialization in any one sport. Instead, we introduce a wide range of athletic movements that prepare kids for any physical pursuit in the future—building adaptable, confident, and capable movers.
Parents don’t just drop off—they stay, watch, encourage, and build stronger bonds by celebrating their child’s progress each week. It’s a shared journey of achievement, connection, and growth.
With trained coaches, creative themes (yes, dressing up is welcome!), and an inclusive environment, every child is supported to thrive socially, emotionally, and physically.
MiniAthletics is more than a class—it’s a launchpad for life.

What started as a parent’s wish to teach his one-year-old daughter how to swim quickly grew into a deep-rooted passion for getting children active. Nearly five years on, Anthony is now the proud founder of his own MiniAthletics business—on a mission to inspire confidence, build physical literacy, and make movement magical for children from walking age to 8 years old.
With a background in swimming coaching and a heart for children’s development, Anthony brings more than just energy to the session—he brings trust, empathy, and reliability. He’s not just running a class; he’s creating a community where every child is seen, encouraged, and celebrated. Parents love that their children not only learn to move well but also build bonds with a coach they know and depend on.
Driven by the belief that foundational movement skills lead to brighter futures—both on and off the field—Anthony blends purposeful coaching with play, storytelling, and connection. His goal? To make every session count, every child feel capable, and every parent proud.
