What Children Learn In Our Preschool Gymnastics Curriculum
Developed over 18 years by our experienced instructors, BearyFun’s curriculum is specially tailored to help your preschool children enjoy physical activity while boosting all-round physical, mental and social development. Your students will learn Dominant Movement Patterns like jumping and landing skills, rolling, tumbling, balance, and travelling—these essential movements help them do better at work, sport and play.
How We Deliver More Value To Your Preschool
To make it more convenient and compelling for your school, we provide the following services to help you impress and wow your parents!

Assessment of Children
The coaches at the end of Term 2 and Term 4 will conduct an assessment of the child’s physical skills to ensure that they meet developmental milestones. This assessment report will be given to each child and their parents.

Who Are The Coaches of BearyFun Gym
Our team of dedicated and qualified coaches (aka “Bearians”) are experienced in managing preschool kids — our co-founder was a preschool educator herself!
BearyFun Gym was started by former MediaCorp stuntman Mr Terran Aw. Overcoming a learning disorder from young, his passion is to equip teachers to teach young children with essential movement skills. Partnering Terran is Ms Sim Ker Ling, an experienced preschool educator who has years of gymnastics coaching experience. Supporting Terran and Ker Ling, BearyFun Gym has a team of over 20 full time coaches who are experienced in managing and coaching children of different age groups.
Our knowledge of child development needs helps us to establish good rapport with children and their parents. We have seen many children improve in their physical and cognitive abilities over the years, and received lots of positive feedback from parents and schools.
