No early specialisation. No repetitive single-skill drills. Just building children's confidence through foundational movement!

At Mini Athletics, we harness the core principles of track and field to teach the essential physical skills behind every sport. Designed specifically for children from walking age to 8 years old, we help your little one run faster, jump higher and move smarter.

Whichever sporting pathway they follow later in life, we give them the confidence and physical building blocks to succeed!

What is Physical Literacy?

It’s simple: giving kids the confidence and skills they need to enjoy physical activity for the rest of their lives.

When exercise feels like a fun game rather than a chore, children naturally fall in love with staying active. Mini Athletics makes movement joyous, inclusive and exciting from day one.

Because healthy habits started early last a lifetime.

I heard these lyrics earlier this week and its resonated with every session we deliver!

​"And you bring me love and you bring me joy..." 🎶

​That is everything we strive for in each session.

​We love the fundamentals - the running, the jumping, the throwing and watching your kids grow stronger and more confident every week.

​But nothing tops the feeling of seeing pure joy on a child's face when it all clicks. Watching them fall in love with movement is hands-down the best part of what we do.

What is bilateral coordination? And why does your child need it?

It’s the ability to use both sides of the body together in a smooth, controlled way. Like running with opposite-arm/opposite-leg drive or jumping off two feet.

Our fun designed games force both sides of the brain to communicate, laying down essential brain pathways for sports, rhythm and everyday tasks.

Give your child a head start in brain and body development!

Ever watch a toddler try to catch a ball and miss by a mile? That’s totally normal, their brain is still learning to connect what they see with how they move!

We uses visual targets, imaginative themes and catching games to sharpen hand-eye and body coordination. Watch them go from wobbly steps to precise, coordinated movements in just a few weeks.
