Children's Activities at the
Rush-Copley Healthplex
Making Fitness Fun
While other fitness clubs may have a designated children’s area staffed with someone to keep an eye on your kids while you work out, the Rush-Copley Healthplex offers them so much more. Our kids programs are filled with fun activities that promote health and wellness for children of all ages. The Discovery Club is a one-of-a-kind activity-based program for Members ages 3-12 that focuses on motivation, health and personal achievement. We also offer childcare for your little ones under the age of 3. Whatever your child’s age, they’ll have fun while meeting new friends and staying active.
Discovery Club
The Discovery Club gym is a fully supervised 12,000 sq. ft. facility that features complimentary classes for members ages 3-12. Your child will be engaged in a large variety of activities and learn healthy concepts along the way, such as fundamental movement, sport skills, physical fitness, dance, aquatics and fair sportsmanship. Check out the special programs for 3-5 year olds, 6-8 year olds and 9-12 year olds. Call Membership for further details at 630-978-6280.
