Why Sweet Peas?

Well, because the basic components of a child’s neural development are genetically coded, however, trillions of finer neural connections are not programmed, and are heavily influenced by enriching early childhood experiences. Research shows that movement and sensory activities strengthen and bond synapses – the essential connections between neurons.

Sweet Peas’ Educational Gymnastics curriculum helps forge the architecture of a child’s brain that will serve him or her for a lifetime.
