I really love this gym, it's like a second home to me. All of the staff are exceptional people and the coaches are excellent at their jobs and very skilled themselves. I would absolutely recommend this gym to anyone!

I have been to all of the Tempest locations now, and though it is the smallest, Southlake uses its space very well. I wish it was in California, so I could train there regularly! as for the staff, I they are all welcoming and working on improvements in their training which spreads to those around them. if you are ever stuck/bored they are an excellent resource of stoke. If you ever get the chance i'd highly recommend heading in for a open gym or a class. If you are anything like me, you'll end up staying for years

This place is amazing! My 12 year old wants us to move closer so he can go all the time. We live in Oklahoma. We rented a hotel room for the week and during this time he developed a newfound self. Confidence he didn't know he had. The coaches were awesome. Safety first, respect second and all of it with a glad you are here smile.I don't know what he misses most parkour or T.J., Bonus, Taylor, Michael and the rest of the gang. The commraderie was magnificent. Thank you guys for treating us like much more than a $ sign. By the time the week was over we felt like close friends. And very much appreciated.T.J. you are the best man. It wouldn't have been the same without your presence. You monkey men have what it takes. Btw, Ayden says hi guys🦍🐒🐒🐒🐒🐵Sincerely, Cindy & Ayden

This is a great place to go to have fun or if your up for a challenge, progressing through the higher levels. Me personally I take the classes and Its an understatement when I say both the Instructors and the experience are amazing. During the open gym times the Instructors are there for you to show you things, teach you and just to talk to. I highly recommend this place to anyone not just children! Especially if you want to get into the freerunning and parkour community.

I stopped by while I was in town to check it out and I have to say that the coaches are the reason to come here. They're welcoming and really know their stuff. As an adult beginner, I felt like it was a safe space to try out some skills that I've been working on without feeling like I was being watched or judged. They were watching, of course, but it was more like they were supporting me rather than trying to fix me. There's a lot of fixing to do, but I was impressed with the guidance.

Both my sons really love parkour. They mix up the activities and the floor layout each week, so the kids are always doing something new and interesting. My younger son recently had a bad experience at another camp over the summer and came back to parkour skittish and anxious - TJ, one of the coaches, immediately comforted him and engaged him in different activities before slowly integrating him back into the main class as my son's comfort level grew. I was impressed that they were so nurturing with the little ones.

Our son loves his weekly class at tempest! Out of all his extra curricular activities, free running is his favourite! An added bonus for parents, it’s super easy to reschedule classes you can’t make or do makeup classes because of a holiday or unexpected gym closures (bad weather etc)! We love this place! And foresee both our boys coming for years! We recommend to everyone!

My son loves it here. He’s really enjoyed his classes, and the coaches are really great with kids and enthusiastic. The coaches are also very talented in their own skills. I do wish communication was better in that there was some sort of feedback to parents to know how their kiddo is progressing. And I do wish a coach would walk around and help kids during open gyms or set up skills or vaults for the kids to work on. I think a lot more kids would do open gyms if that were the case. I know open gym isn’t a class but having someone walking around and providing small amounts of assistance would be really beneficial. I do think the classes are really great though, and my son looks forward to going to them every week.
