Tutu School Lakewood & Long Beach Sponsor The Mom Walk Long Beach at Steelhead Coffee in Bixby Knolls

Parents looking for toddler activities in Long Beach and Lakewood recently gathered for a joyful community event sponsored by Tutu School Lakewood and Tutu School Long Beach. On February 28, 2026, local moms and their little ones met at Steelhead Coffee in Bixby Knolls for The Mom Walk Long Beach, a popular meet-up designed to help parents connect while enjoying the outdoors with their babies and toddlers.

The morning was filled with coffee, conversation, and a little bit of Tutu School magic for families in the Long Beach area.

Connecting with Local Moms in Long Beach

The event began at 10:00 a.m., with moms and their children—ranging in age from approximately 8 months to 2 years old—gathering outside Steelhead Coffee before heading out for their walk.

Before the group started their stroll through the Bixby Knolls neighborhood, the team from Tutu School Lakewood and Long Beach shared a little about what makes Tutu School special: imaginative ballet classes designed specifically for young children.

Many parents are actively searching for classes and activities for toddlers in Long Beach, and this event provided a wonderful opportunity for families to learn about creative ballet classes for kids near Lakewood and Bixby Knolls.
