Nice closed place for children. More for mobile children. No small games, bring your own.

About
Elliott’s Classes was founded with the belief that children’s movement classes can be a fun way to have a meaningful impact on a child’s physical, cognitive, and emotional development. We offer gymnastics, dance, art, and a preschool alternative program. Developed by Elliott Cortez, Ph.D., a child psychologist and former gymnast, “The Elliott Method” combines movement science with child development theory (CDT) for children ages 6 weeks through 14 years. By considering a child’s perspective, our classes have been designed to not only enhance our students’ development, but to enrich other areas of their lives such as learning, speech, listening skills, and social behavior. Elliott’s program is success-based rather than skills-based, thereby applauding a child’s willingness to simply attempt challenges.

During his practice as a child psychologist, Elliott often found himself referring patients to include gymnastics in their therapy program to build social and behavioral skills. Eventually, he put his technique into practice by leading classes at several NYC children’s gym centers. The response to his unique programming was overwhelming and compelled him to open the first Elliott’s Gymnastics Class Center in 1992. Today, Elliott’s Classes have evolved into a center with a full range of children’s programming with the goal of making a positive impact on as many children as possible.

At our classes, we have fostered a culture based in community. We take a serious interest in the growth of your child and actively discuss how caregivers can encourage a child’s development, form positive behaviors, and understand their needs. We welcome you to join our community.
