After a long time of begging, we finally allowed T1 to start the gym this year. But we’ve stopped everything else.
I find this a suitable gym for this age group as they teach the kids some solid gymnastic skills (like handstands, cartwheels, roll-overs, somersaults, balance beams and lots more!) yet it is done in a fun environment. And the best thing is that the kids get to burn lots of energy and come home exhausted and hungry, then pass out after they are fed. Woohoo! What more can a mom ask for?!
Having been involved in gymnastics before as a teen, the first thing I did was to inspect their equipment. You can tell how professional a gym is from there. They passed the test with standard 5 layers of chip foam for absorption of impact with double carpeting.

I observed how well the staff knew their stuff. I know exactly how the body should work in a gym so I was able to identify if they were half past six staff or ones with experience. They passed that test too.


Showing off as usual…..


Warming up sessions…..before class starts.


Running on a beam….

She still can’t go down to a back bend from standing position. I used to be able to do that with incredible ease (chehhhhh…… all the terror stuff I USED TO DO must also show off a bit).

What I also like about the gym is that kids get to practise other sport skills like golf, racket games, ball games etc; all in the name of better coordination and improving strength, stamina and confidence.

T1, the happy camper at gym class. She has never wanted to miss a single day of class and absolutely LOVES her gym class.

T2 will start as soon as she hits her 1st birthday!
It is great fun! I highly recommend it as this physical activity actually stimulates brain activity, little do the kiasu parents know…..*hick*
**************************************************************************Who is Mamapumpkin?
Mamapumpkin spent 7 years in London committing crimes to gain her Bartlett degree in Architecture. She then spent 7 years as a Stay At Home Mom raising her children as documented in this blog of over 15 years thereafter returning to the Corporate World stronger than ever as the Country Director of a British Multinational. She sets out to prove to all, that you can have anything and everything that you want; if you have that fire of desire burning within and the drive to work hard. Even better with much love.
Mamapumpkin has not only grown corporate businesses successfully in the past but has grown not one but TWO network marketing businesses in the notorious MLM (Multi-Level Marketing) industry, achieving success in under 2 years. She believes in the MLM business model but realises the DRASTIC PITFALLS and great stigma attached to it, understanding EXACTLY WHY the majority would shy away (or RUN for their lives) from ANY MLM business. But open your eyes and take time to understand it intellectually, remove your hang-ups, confirm your research, and you may just want to seize an opportunity. She did. And no, she never went about chasing people for sales. She had a sophisticated system work for her through technology and a smartphone.
She now impacts lives authentically with proven strategies amassed through the last decade of her own transformation offering online coaching programmes and always supports the underprivileged. She believes that we can all have a life of our own desires to enable real contribution into the world. But first, one needs to understand what this all means.
A beautiful life without limits.
If you wish to learn some tools to propel your life forward guaranteed, be brave enough to make contact as her life's purpose is to build people. She operates through a discovery call after which she will commit to helping you. Or not.
Most lose out on an opportunity because they are afraid they would be sold to, conned or whatever fear resides in their brain without even trying. And that's on them.
Mamapumpkin is a living testimony that women really can have a lot. Being financially and time free has enabled her to travel the world anytime, anywhere, doing anything, and she spends most of her days with her children, having fun, and supporting others wherever she can. Also having fun.


I read about this place. Looks sooooooo interesting. Made me wish I have the agility to perform all those stunts. I was a fatty in my growing up years so nothing like this sort for me.
