About US

Clamber Club is a South-African-born children’s movement and sensory-motor programme that has been helping little ones move, learn and grow for more than three decades.

Today our franchise family delivers Baby, Toddler, Sports-for-Schools, Playschool, Party Entertainment experiences, all proudly led by our fitness mascot, Jog the Frog. Whether you join a class, book a party or own a franchise, you become part of a community that puts children—and the people who care for them—at the heart of everything we do.

Our vision

We believe that movement is the gateway to learning, confidence and lifelong wellbeing. Our vision is therefore to:

Inspire a love for exercise and the joy of movement in every child we meet.

Lay strong perceptual-motor foundations essential for school readiness and effective learning.Empower parents, teachers and franchisees—especially women—to create flexible, family-friendly businesses that change children’s lives for the better.

By keeping play at the centre of our programmes, we aim to spark curiosity, build resilience and grow happy, healthy communities—one jump, roll and giggle at a time.

HISTORY
