Took my 3.5 year old for gymnastics. I've had him involved in many activities. The young ladies that coach are not interactive or fun with the kids. They spend more time chatting amongst each other once they get on the mat than the toddlers. Today my child was left behind when walking to class as well. Concerns me with how much they pay attention to who is who and where they are. It is cheap-- but not worth a single penny. Take your child and money elsewhere.

Stopped attending in January and they decided to continue to charge my card. After several re-assurances month after month that I would not be billed any longer, they keep billing me. Almost to $300 dollars for no services received. Also, they have stated there is nothing they can do about the past payments. There is a roster & verification that she was not in the class. When will it stop? Your guess is as good as mine.

My child had fun and learned some basic beginner skills. However, we were extremely disappointed with the lack of staff interaction. There were no introductions, no one ever spoke with us or updated us on progress, and you can barely see your child during class. We felt that it was not a very "friendly" environment....my child never even knew the instructors name. Could be better if there was more interaction.

We did a clinic in the summer and we were so impressed with the patience and focus the coaches exhibited, even with easily distracted 4 year olds! Can't wait to start fall session. A family friend recommended this location and it was I e of the best recommendations we have received as a family to date!

First class. Been several other places for gym and dance for our daughter and kids just run amok. Here the coaches are full of energy and keep the little ones focused and occupied. We've taken 8 sessions here from 2 to 4 years old, and intend to keep coming.
