Great facility, amazing energy from the coaches on Friday night. The young ladies that facilitate and coach are warm and bright with loads of energy. My daughter loves this place on Friday night.

My daughter loves it she says she gets to learn new things everytime she visits. They have a waiting area for parents if you want to wait inside they have a drop off section to be honest I don't know much about that since I just wait for her inside. They let you try it and feel it out once and if they like it they can work with you on schedule. If you miss your appointed time of the week they have makeup days you can call and schedul. Like I said my daughter love going and the teachers and front desk are awesome.

Can’t say enough. Our 2 daughters go here. They gain more skill each time. When we ask them their favorite part of the day on days they go , this is always their answer.

OK place but i had an emergency and had to go out of state. They would not refund my money for lessons i will not be taking my daughter to in September. I know its a pain but very easy to do a refund, You guys should change your policies, bad policies cause bad reviews. I will be taking my business elsewhere in 2 months.

Boys love their coach. That's the only reason I stay. They don't have a boys program. Front desk employee rude and not amenable to suggestions (although other area gyms have similiar activities). Same staff told my son "Do it like a NORMAL person"--yes that's a supportive comment from an adult. Bottom line-kids love it. I just avoid the front desk.

My daughter loves this place. We had her birthday party here and she had a blast! The instructors were very kind and let her plan most of the activities for her party. We also love the Pizza & Play nights here. It's a great deal and my kid always has fun!

I’m trying to write more of a professional review. I’m a USAG L10/Xcel/compulsory coach and a NAWGJ rated L10 judge of gymnastics here in the US. I’m also a former member of the Hungarian Nat Gymnastics Team back in 20 years ago. So based on my experience I’m writing my review of this gym!I love the place how spacious and close to my house! I like the fact it is VERY CLEAN! I had a trial gymnastics class (Parent and me) for my 2 years old I went with my friend who asked my professional opinion! We picked the Wednesday morning class which was timed perfectly! There was no other classes at the same time so 5 kids and their parents had the entire gym nice and quiet!The class was decent but not really organized and not very informative for “first” time parents. They had a short warm up with a short stretch which is enough for the little ones but I’m missing the more like a little music warm up and some spots for the kids to sit and they know that’s their place while sitting.After this warm up we were free to go to the whole gym, but without any SAFETY instructions which I’m missing....they also set up a nice obstacle course for the kids which was easy to follow and I could make my kid to do it 3-4x because I know what to do but my friend wasn’t informed about it how to do it or what to watch out or expect. After the free time they had a short group fun activity which I really liked! Overall we had a nice 45 minuets there!I definitely have to mention that we needed to sign up online and leave all the information including payments. When I pick trial and enrolled my kid for 1 class the computer showed me the amount I have to pay is $0. Next morning I was charged $17 which I feel like not fair ...anyway we will definitely come back!

We love TGA!!!!!!!!!! Our daughter has been going there since the Mommy and Me class. She then transitioned into gymnastics where her self confidence has grown leaps and bounds. The most supportive coaches and the friendliest staff. We have all her birthday parties there and the kids just love it!!!!
