Too many hidden fees that staff do not tell you about upfront. Whatever program price they're advertising for always add an additional $300 dollars to that. That's how much you'll really be paying.

Agree with other parents! Lots of hidden fees & during the holidays they close ninja classes for several weeks and they don’t allow your kids to attend during that time. You can however sign your kids up for holiday camps that are ridiculously expensive! It’s just a cash grab and not fair for many of us parents because my son is 3 so even if I wanted to put him in a class or 2 during those weeks they are “closed” I can’t because camps are for ages 4 and up. I had called and asked during the Christmas break if I wouldn’t be charged those 2 weeks that they close ninja classes. Nope still charged the SAME $146 I always pay on a regular month. Decided to cancel in January because that was really upsetting and the receptionist on Allen Rd was extremely rude on the phone! For the amount of money we pay the least thing we deserve is good customer service. AKSC is very expensive compared to other places but I liked that it catered to 3 year olds which is why I signed up back in June. Also when I made the decision to cancel in January my sons ninja class we received make up tokens for the month and when I tried to use one we got denied because he was no longer active in the class…..WHY GIVE US THE MAKE UP TOKENS THEN??? It was a really hard decision despite all that because Coach Jonathan is an AMAZING coach and my son really enjoys his classes.

My 3 year old granddaughter has the great privilege of having Andrew as her tots coach at the southwest. He has perfect control and is well organized. In each routine he implements many elements like balance, backward movement, lateral movement and forward movement. The facility makes it great to watch as well.

Good place for the kids to get out some energy and learn gymnastics, cheerleading, karate, or just how to bounce. It does get full, so staying to watch can be difficult....but overall, neat facility and fun staff

The gymnastics program here is terrific. The coaches are very knowledgable, and they interact with the kids wonderfully. The facility is great, too. The kids love going to class!
