My daughter has been attending classes, camps and parents nights out for the past 2 years. We love it here the camp is so fun. The camp is a great blend of fun, games, learning, time playing, gymnastics, bar, beams, tumbling. We can't express enough how much we love the studio! They are so nice and supportive and they lift my daughters spirit and she has grown to love this studio and everyone here. They excel at training the kiddos.We do two days a week during the school year camps in the summer.They are so nice to the campers and most importantly they are safe and respectable. They don't push the kids past their ability, if your kid can't do a cartwheel they will assist but its gymnastics its better to be safe, with that being said my daughter can do a back handspring, they won #1 on the team in the state and they are the right blend of supportive and pushing the students.(Just remember no studio can make your kid a superstar over night - they can't make your child a gymnast in a day, gymnastics is a sport .... athletes train hours a day to excel in their sport.)

Listen to other reviews. I was a gymnast and former coach. This is a terribly run gym with horrible management. Jodie the manager will certainly respond to this with a myriad of excuses, but run the other way. My child was mistreated by a coach (physically and verbally aggressive per my daughter) and after asking for a call to discuss and better understand the situation, I received a long email defending the coach and kicking us out of the gym.

Summer camp, don’t do it!!! Attended 6.13.22-6.17.22 for $275 all I wanted my daughter (8 yrs old) to be able to do by the end of this camp was to do a cartwheel…A CARTWHEEL… instead of what she had been doing, which was a kind of round off …and improve her balance by walking across the balance beam. Their instructors…If you want to call them that (didn’t look like they had ever been gymnasts or been in a gym for that matter) they simply let them jump or bounce into the foam pit which, of course yes, that was fun for her… but not what was in there description of the summer camp..Then the last half the day they were making popsicle stick paintings that she could’ve done when she was in kindergarten. Not to mention one day they had power issues so they were closed and I was not notified until it was too late. I was already there waiting to drop my child off. And we were never reimbursed for that money. (I’m sure that is in fine print in some A sub Chapter 1.4 of the contract, so I did not press that issue at the time) I didn’t pay $275 just for a babysitter…again, I just wanted her to be able to do a cartwheel and for her to maybe be able to walk on the balance beam. Why I waited so long to post this?? it took me a few months to calm down and make sure I wasn’t going to post something completely irrational. Then time passed, and I pretty much just considered it a wash. Now I’m continually receiving emails from them, promoting their upcoming classes and summer camps, and figured it was my duty to “buyer beware” ..Go elsewhere.

Terrible customer service! Make sure you read all the fine print on any papers you sign! We lost out on two credits of the whole month (which is two separate classes) and was lead to believe I could make them up. Also, there was no classes open when I tried to make it up, and then the next time I tried it was closed due to more ppl signing up the website said. So I wasn’t even given a chance even though my tokens for makeup classes weren’t expired! I was very upset and left two voicemails about this and no one called me back ever! I do not recommend this place!

Vision has been such a blessing to our daughter. She is naturally shy and they have done a great job of encouraging her and emboldening her spirit. She has progressed so much and we have been treated with such love and kindness throughout our time there!

If I could give more stars I would!!! The staff made my daughter’s 6th birthday party seamless! They were professional, friendly, and so helpful! The games and obstacle course was fun and kept the kids entertained! The ladies even assisted with serving the party snacks! Throughly pleased with our birthday party at Vision Gymnastics!

I had only heard good things about this gym prior to enrolling my daughter in the summer camp. She enjoyed summer camp so we continue to fall gymnastics class.My daughter came home crying this week because her wrist and arms hurt and she was under the impression she could not “come down “ until she was done .I emailed the director and explained just looking for some clarity, empathy, and to explain protocol as my daughter is not one to cry or even complain .Upon emailing her she proceeded to tell me my daughter was “whining “ ( her exact word) and she is sorry her wrist hurt . Then proceeded to say how good coaches were at their job and my daughters risk was probably sore.She was completely dismissive of my concern , she didn’t offer an apology for the situation or apology for my daughter feeling overwhelmed just “sorry her wrist hurt “.Her response prompted me to request to withdraw my daughter . Again , still without empathy , she immediately said I’ll withdraw your daughter immediately wouldn’t want her to be unhappy.I asked for the owners number but received no reply .Just note : a little empathy goes a long way .

The leaders and coaches at Vision are professional in the way they communicate with the parents, and do a great job of relaying information. They have a website that stays up to date, as well as an app. The coaches have the gymnasts best interest in the way they coach and lead. My 5 year old daughter loves going, and my 8 year old daughter just started this month! This is a great gym, that takes pride in the way they help their gymnasts succeed! I have recommended this gym to several friends!

We loved our vision family and miss it terribly. We had to choose a gym that offered private lesson and extra gym time. Vision used to offer this and is was amazing. Our daughter definitely needs the extra help but I cant say enough good things about the coaches and staff..they really love the students and it felt like home. Give this place a try if your looking.
