Izzat (Zac) – The Flashy Feet

Ola friends! My name is Zac, the super sporty member of the team. I am power-packed with loads of awesome football tricks (and some hidden singing talent too!).

I have always wanted to make a positive impact to the next generation of little athletes by adding adventure and meaning to their lives. Seeing the happy faces of all the Power boys and girls after a session always makes my day!

My goal at Power Kids Gym is to create the best environment where both you and your little one can venture out of your comfort zones and discover all the things you never thought your child is capable of.

Philomena Cannon-Brookes – Chief Executive of Mischief

Hey all. My job is to channel the inner jedi of the trainers so that they transform your children into super heroes ready to conquer the world with their agility, strength and silliness. I take my job very seriously to ensure that everyone has loads of fun – staff, children and families who come through our doors.

In my previous life, I was a headhunter and then made the transition of creating an indoor gym for my 3 children who were driving me to the edge of despair with their hyperactivity. They are all now adults but still continue to spin my head around.

I am a certified personal trainer (though these days, I certainly could do with spending more time in the gym) and have also completed the Level 1A Gymnastics Training Qualification. I also had the privilege of being trained in recreational Gymnastics in the US.

Our gliders are well on their way on building a strong foundation in developing their gross and fine motor skills through our structured activities and our free play time. Whether it is holding on to the bars for 15 seconds, climbing the rock wall or working on their upper body strength to do handstands, there is a whole range of activities to challenge them incrementally every week. In the process, they will also learn basic skills such as waiting in turns, sharing and also to interact with others in a positive way. It is all about building their confidence to explore the unknown.

Just as a pony trots and then slowly moves into a gallop our sassy Twos are on an exciting journey of discovering their abilities in an independent way. Though mums and dads are still around to guide them, they will be exposed to pre-gymnastics activities and various sports skills as well as strengthening their skills in manipulative play. The emphasis is on working on physical and social skills where they have to listen and follow directions. They will also be building their knowledge of numbers and letters which will help them with language and vocabulary development. Whether it is through our mega obstacle courses or navigating our climbing ropes, or through drills and games, our twos will improve on their coordination, agility and strength and in that process build their self-esteem and confidence.

Our Climbers are gaining greater independence. They are nurtured to face new challenges by our Trainers, who spot them and provide positive encouragement,. This is the class where they are exposed to gymnastic and sports skills, relays and much more. These activities help build up their strength, coordination, flexibility and agility. Ultimately, the goal is to help them have a more positive mindset and to build their confidence in embracing activities individually as well as in teams. Whether it is mastering a handstand, straddle jump or learning to dribble a ball, our 3 year old Climbers will start to develop their fitness levels and are introduced to the concept of good sportsmanship.

Farah - Champion of Carolling

Hey friends! I am Farah, the youngest and spunkiest in the team! I sing randomly at times and enjoy goofing around. Challenge me to a sing-off or sing along with me!

I have always had a passion in coaching kids as I enjoy every single moment of it. Seeing, coaching and interacting with children for my work just brings a smile to my face, even though you probably cannot see it as I am wearing a mask.

I joined the Power Team as part of my diploma education and I look forward to all the learning opportunities here.
