At We Rock the Spectrum Kid’s Gym in Agoura Hills, the play equipment is fun and adventurous, but also specially designed to help kids on the spectrum.
Owner Dana Aghassi loves having a safe, welcoming place for children of all abilities to play and connect with plenty of sensory equipment.
“It warms my heart to do something different, to have an all-inclusive kid’s gym where all kids can be in a room together, whether they’re typical, whether they are special,” Aghassi said.
They offer open play, and drop off, plus camps, birthday parties and more.
“Our motto is, ‘Finally a place where you never have to say I’m sorry,'” Aghassi said.
“So where kids are screaming, kicking, yelling where they don’t wanna leave, which makes me feel good. They don’t want to leave. And the parent is like, ‘Oh my God, I’m so sorry for the way my child is acting.’ And I go, ‘There’s no need to say I am sorry.'”
For parents of kids with autism, it can be a lifeline.

“So it’s not just a kid’s gym. It’s a family it’s community and that just means a lot to me,” said Aghassi.
