Power meets play at Kinetix Kids, a newly opened premier play gym, activity, and specialized training center at The Podium in Ortigas, Mandaluyong.
Upon entering Kinetix Kids at the said mall’s fourth level, parents/guardians and their beloved kids are welcomed by an expansive play area with diverse sections.
These are specially designed to foster different aspects of a child’s development, from physical strength and strategic thinking to creativity and socialization.
Sprawled throughout a spacious 824 square meters, points of interest include the Mission Control, Moon Wall, Moon Slide, Cosmic Ballpit, Shuffle Control Tower, Astronaut Ascend, Imagination Station, Atomic Garden, Astronaut Training, and Toddler Area.
“We are dedicated to supporting the holistic development of children through innovative play spaces, professional services, and community-driven initiatives… We are not just selling playtime; we’re building a movement that celebrates growth, confidence, and joy,” Kinetix Kids marketing head Shalla Yu said.
On top of its play gym, Kinetix Kids hosts specialized one-on-one and group training classes on occupational therapy, early education, and speech-language pathology. It also offers physiotherapy as well as strength and conditioning sessions for children.
These are handled by the likes of in-house occupational therapy doctor Pilar Balboa, early education specialist and branch manager teacher Dana Macanlalay, and speech-language pathologist teacher Clarisse Lim—all of whom hold advanced certification and degrees from prestigious institutions.
To celebrate a variety of family celebrations, including birthdays and other significant milestones, Kinetix Kids has a dedicated Events Place with a capacity of 150 guests. This provides flexible options for shared or exclusive use of the play areas, with each booking including a basic sound system, tables, and chairs.
Additionally, the play gym facilitates organized playdates for groups of 10 or more children, with optional catering services for snacks and desserts.
Available walk-in options and memberships include the following:
