Gym for toddlers in Chino Hills holds free open house

My Gym, a children's fitness center in Chino Hills, will hold a free open house on Sunday from 9 a.m. to noon and 2 p.m. to 5 p.m.

Padded rolling cylinders, monkey bars, swings, and plastic play forts abound at My Gym Children's Fitness Center in Chino Hills. The workout equipment is shuffled around the gym each week in an effort to keep the children challenged.

Instructors lead young children in various exercises designed to teach them coordination, balance, teamwork and social skills.

In a time when one out of five young children is obese, My Gym is among a number of children's fitness centers that serve to instill the importance of physical activity and healthy habits for kids at an early age.
