FERNANDINA BEACH, Fla. (July 9, 2026)&ndash; <a href="https://www.thelittlegym.com/" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">The Little Gym</a>, the world&rsquo;s premier enrichment and physical development center for children ages four months through 12 and part of the youth enrichment growth-focused platform <a href="https://www.unleashedbrands.com/" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Unleashed Brands</a>, is set to open in Fernandina Beach on July 18, bringing serious fun to children while supporting their physical, cognitive, and social development. Located at 96032 Victoria's Pl, The Little Gym of Fernandina Beach will bring movement-based learning, gymnastics classes, and confidence-building programs to thousands of families across Jacksonville, Yulee, and Fernandina.

The new gym is owned and operated by local husband-and-wife duo Karen and Josh Womack. After 20 years of moving around the world as a military family, the couple returned to the Jacksonville area to plant roots with their young family and contribute to the local community in a meaningful way. Parents themselves, they recognized a need for more family-focused activities and spaces for children in the area. Having been members at other The Little Gym locations, the Womacks knew franchise ownership with this brand was the perfect opportunity to combine their passion for children&rsquo;s enrichment with serving their community. 
&ldquo;We&rsquo;re so excited to create meaningful experiences at The Little Gym that families can grow with,&rdquo; said Karen Womack. &ldquo;Returning to an area that has been such an important part of my life story for so long and now opening a business here with my family gives us the opportunity to become part of the community in a new and really special way.&rdquo;
The Little Gym of Fernandina Beach&rsquo;s programs are designed to be a springboard for life&rsquo;s adventures. Classes utilize movement-based learning and imaginative play to enhance coordination, listening and intellectual skills. Popular options include Parent/Child classes, which allow parents to help their child explore motor and social-skill development, and preschool and grade school gymnastics classes that teach students tumbling and apparatus techniques while using positive motivation as a learning tool. The gym will also offer Tummy Timers, a specialized parent-and-baby program for newborns through 4-month-olds that combines research-based education with sensory-rich activities designed to support early developmental milestones and motor-skill growth while fostering parent connection. They will also offer Awesome Birthday Bashes in a variety of themes that feature instructor-led games and music. 
With nearly 400 locations across 31 countries, The Little Gym teaches kids social and physical skills appropriate to each stage of childhood by creating opportunities to experience achievement and build self-confidence. The core of the international franchise&rsquo;s mission is becoming the foundation of a child&rsquo;s development that will set them up for success. Through a proprietary philosophy called Three-Dimensional learning, programs foster growth in three holistic dimensions including physical, cognitive, and social and emotional learning. The core teaching methods create opportunities for children to experience achievement and build self-confidence. 
The Fernandina Beach gym will be open July 18 and is available at (904) 931-0940 or on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/tlgfernandinabeachfl/" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Instagram</a> and <a href="https://www.facebook.com/thelittlegym" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Facebook</a>.
