Blackwatch has been a gem for my daughter! The staff and coaching here is phenomenal. We absolutely love how their focus is on truly making your child better by not only through coaching skills but incorporating strength, conditioning and good team morals. We left another gym and love the positive attitude here…it’s not just about winning but learning what it takes to get better and be a team. This is something hard to find!

My daughter competed with the Blackwatch All Star competition team this past season. She experienced phenomenal growth as an athlete by being a part of this team. Her tumbling, stunting, dance, and overall ability to present herself "show ready" on stage was remarkable.I look back at her first competition video of the season and compare it to her last competition video- and it is evident that these coaches have worked hard as well as these girls.Another plus for us was that Blackwatch was only having 1 to 2 competition teams per season. So these girls are getting every ounce of attention from the gym. The coaches are focused on helping this group to shine. They are not spread thin trying to get several teams prepped and ready for competitions. They are focused on 1 to 2 teams at a time.Thank you BW sports for pouring into my cheerleader and helping her shine! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

As an athlete at Blackwatch. I feel safe in the environment and I learn a lot and I have always had nothing but positive experiences with the coaches. I love being there and wouldn’t choose any other gym

Through innovation, leadership, and action, Blackwatch’s Physical Therapy creates demonstrable improvement. The concept of integrating physical therapy with sports enhances performance quickly. Shelley successfully treated both me and my daughter after knee surgery. Working out with Shelley got us in better shape than before surgery. Thanks Shelley!

Blackwatch cheer, you have a major liability with Lloyd Tucker. Fathers and mothers need to be aware of him. He has previously coached my daughter. And he had an affair with my wife and ruined a 14 year marriage. He made sure when he started flirting with her online we would say talk on a personal level not professional. There is no way he should be around young girls after reading the dms he sent.

The coaches and staff at Blackwatch are amazing. My son started sports training with KD and loves coming to his classes. He’s getting stronger and his confidence is soaring! My girls love tumbling and having fun on the open gym nights and love stunting with Darius and tumbling with Johnathan. The staff members know the kids, their strengths and encourage them to be their best!Blackwatch is IT - if your kids love sports and cheer- this is the place to be.

I have two boys ages 7 & 8 that train here regularly. Simeon, Ryan, Jarvis and the entire staff are all great teachers and aid in developing young athletes. I highly recommend the facility and the training. They take the time to evaluate and get to know my kids and treat each of them wonderfully. Both kids enjoy their time training, and they train as much as possible. The only downside is that when school starts back, with all the activities and sports, they will probably will not be able to attend as much as they would like. Simply put, you will not get a ROI for your child.Again, I highly recommend the developmental program for young athletes at BlackWatch Sports Performance. If your child is not training here, they are getting left behind athletically. But it's not just about being a better athlete however. They treat my kids like family and work on character as well. Only suggestion, start developmental training on weekends too, especially during school. Highly recommended!

My kids absolutely love going here to work out and I never thought I would say that about any place. The trainers push them hard but are very motivating. My son is also taking baseball hitting lessons here.
