"Building the Skills for a Lifetime of Action"
If your preschooler loves being active, having fun and learning new skills, and would like to work towards the exciting milestone of riding a bike, then Action Tots is the place to be!
Balance, co-ordination, gross and fine motor skills are all vital for your toddler’s development and form the basis for fitness and sports of all kinds.
Using a range of fun games, songs and equipment from bean bags to balance bikes, your little one will have the chance to develop and practice all these skills and more, challenging themselves in lots of different ways.
From early riding skills on our toddler size balance bikes to learning how to stretch and relax, with simple yoga and massage, Action Tots will boost your toddler’s body awareness, confidence, fitness and social skills as you laugh and play together.
This class builds the foundations for riding a traditional bike but also helps prepare your little one for any kind of sport or activity and to develop a love for an active lifestyle.

Why Use a Balance Bike?
Learning to ride a bike is an important event in any child’s life, but a traditional bike can be difficult for younger children to manage, and when stabilisers are used they don’t learn the balance skills they need to be able to ride unaided.
Our Balance Bikes are lightweight and easy for little people to handle, and their low seat height allows your child to feeling safe and secure with both feet planted firmly on the ground. The simplicity of the balance bike means that your little one can concentrate on the fundamental skills of balance, leaning and steering while propelling their bike in a natural way.
Learning to ride is about more than just being on the bike itself though, which is why our classes involve a range of activities that will develop the underlying skills which will help make the process of riding a bike, and any other sport or physical activity much easier.
Most of all though, children learn best when they are having fun, so that's what the classes are all about!

What Our Customers Say...
This is a fantastic class for little ones to gain confidence on the bike. The mix of games focusing on balance and coordination definitely help them when riding a bike.
My daughter started going just after her second birthday. At first she refused to get on the balance bike, but each week her confidence and curiosity has grown and after 6 weeks she is excited to get on the bike and able to manoeuvre it around the room.

My son and I loved Action Tots!
He went from not even sitting on his balance bike to riding it with confidence, a little too much sometimes!
He was always so excited to go and we would highly recommend the course.
