The calm before the storm!! 😂

Ready for another super lively and fun after-school club this afternoon at Gillingham Primary School! 🌟

Our clubs give EYFS and Key Stage 1 children the chance to have fun, get active, build confidence and friendships, and learn through play in a relaxed, supportive environment. 💛

I LOVE this photo! ♥️

It shows how Mini Athletics is about so much more than running, jumping and throwing. 🏃‍♀️✨

It’s about building confidence, having fun and creating a space where little ones can connect and make new friends.

These two girls met at our Sunday morning Salisbury classes with Coach Lucy, and it’s so lovely to see their friendship blossom alongside their love of athletics. 🥰💕

Here they are racing together during yesterday's session at South Wilts Grammar School!

Sometimes the best thing kids take away from a session isn’t a new skill — it’s a new friend! 🌟

The Cuddle Run is always one of the highlights of our classes 🥰

Here's a little look at one from this morning’s classes at Warminster Sports Centre... Mini athletes from our Littles class sprint straight into mum or dad’s arms for a huge hug!

It’s not just cute — it helps build confidence, coordination, independence and a lovely sense of connection with their grown-up.

And yes… they absolutely love it! ❤️

Robot fun in Wincanton this morning! 🤖🏃‍♀️

Our Robot Week classes are always a big hit — not least because there are lots of opportunities for parents to get involved too! 🙌

The kids absolutely love taking part in games alongside their grown-ups, and it's always special seeing them run, laugh, play and be silly together! 💚

More robot fun in Salisbury and Warminster tomorrow! ⭐️

Oh my!!! So many questions today from our VERY EXCITED mini athletes who can't wait to meet Baby Gogo during Charity Week 🦌💚👶

“How can Gogo have a baby when he’s a boy?”
“Why doesn’t Coco come to Mini Athletics?”
“What will the baby look like?” 👀

It was so lovely to see their excitement and we can't wait for Baby Gogo to arrive! 🥹💚

Gogo is going to need all the help he can get! And during our Charity Week classes, our mini athletes are going to be running, jumping and throwing their way through some very important baby duties! 🏃‍♀️🤸‍♂️🥎

From Monday 12th – Sunday 18th October, our usual Mini Athletics sessions are going to become one big Baby Gogo adventure.

We are raising money for Imagine This, a fantastic charity supporting the mental well-being of seriously ill children and their families across the UK.

Their Positivity in Motion project brings music, movement and creativity to children's bedsides, creating moments of joy, normality and connection when families are going through some of the hardest times.

We would love it if your amazing mini athletes are sponsored to help look after Baby Gogo! Every donation big or small would be very much appreciated, as we would love to raise as much as we can for a brilliant cause.💚

The link to our fundraising page is in our Bio!

Thank you everybody!

We don’t believe little kids need to specialise. 💛

They don’t need pressure to compete, memorise rules or be “good” at one particular sport.

They need to move, play, explore and build confidence in what their bodies can do.

At Mini Athletics, we focus on the fundamental movement skills — running, jumping, balancing, throwing, catching, coordination and agility — all through fun, imaginative play.

Because these are the skills that give children the confidence to go on and enjoy whatever sport they choose later on. ⚽️🏀🏉🎾

We’re not trying to create mini Olympic champions.

We’re creating confident little movers who love being active. ❤️

And that’s what makes Mini Athletics different.

DOES YOUR CHILD NEED TO TRY LOTS OF DIFFERENT SPORTS? 🤔

It’s easy to feel like they should be doing a bit of football, a bit of gymnastics, maybe swimming, tennis… 😅

But there's good news for your bank balance!! For ages 2–7, it’s not about ticking off as many sports as possible.

It’s about building the fundamental movement skills that underpin them all.

Running, jumping, balancing, throwing, catching, coordination and more. 🏃‍♀️🤸‍♂️

That’s why we don’t specialise in one particular sport at Mini Athletics.

We focus on the foundations first — giving children the skills, confidence and love of movement to enjoy whatever sports they choose later. 💚

You don’t need to do it all... You just need to build the right foundations!

🎉 A MASSIVE WELL DONE to this little superstar for earning her very first Mini Athletics certificate! 🥳🏅

Ivy attends our Littles class in Wincanton and is an absolute pleasure to coach each week! 💕 Since she started, she has grown so much in confidence, and she is always SO proud of herself when she manages to nail something new. 🥰

One of my favourite things about watching Ivy each week is seeing just how much fun she has with her dad! 💗

At Mini Athletics, we love getting parents involved too — and our classes create some really special Daddy-Daughter time along the way.

Ivy’s dad always gives the BIGGEST celebrations when she pulls off a brilliant jump, catch or throw! 😂🙌 And while I’m sure he’ll be embarrassing her in 10 years’ time 😂, right now she absolutely LOVES seeing how proud he is of her!

And that’s one of the really special things about Mini Athletics… ❤️

It’s not just about learning to run, jump, throw and catch. It’s about building confidence, creating happy memories and giving little ones that feeling of “I DID IT!” — with the people they love cheering them on!

Those little moments of encouragement can mean SO much to a child, and we absolutely love being able to play a small part in them.

Well done, Ivy — you are amazing! 🌟🏅

Before becoming a Mini Athletics franchisee, I was looking for a job where I could make a genuine, positive impact on others. 💛

I chose Mini Athletics because I truly believe in the power of sport — especially when children have positive, fun experiences from a young age. Sport can build confidence, friendships, resilience and memories that stay with you for life.

But I don’t think I realised just how rewarding it would be to see that impact every single day. 🥹

Seeing the excitement on children’s faces, watching their confidence grow and knowing that I’m helping create those happy memories means the absolute world to me.

I’m so glad I took the leap and became a Mini Athletics franchisee. 🏃‍♀️✨

Fun in the kitchen at yesterday's Chef Week classes in Salisbury! 🧑‍🍳🏃

Weekend classes run throughout the year in Wincanton, Salisbury and Warminster and September is the perfect time to start!

We have a few spaces available and would love to welcome some new mini athletes!

Children have SO much fun in our classes - learning new skills without even realising it!

Our mini athletes love seeing their friends each week and are always excited to know what the theme is going to be! 😃

If you've thought about trying Mini Athletics, now is your moment! Book a taster via the link in our Bio with no obligation to sign up afterwards!
