Insider tips

  • **Inquire about all fees upfront:** Due to a report of 'hidden fees', parents should ask for a comprehensive breakdown of all potential costs before signing a contract.
  • **Clarify progression plans:** If skill development is a primary concern, ask about the curriculum and progression expectations for specific classes, especially those involving 'teen coaches'.
  • **Consider open gym first:** Utilize the open gym sessions on Thursdays or Fridays to experience the facility and staff before committing to a full program.
  • **Assess value for money carefully:** Be aware of the 'extremely overpriced' feedback and weigh it against the positive experiences of skill growth and dedicated staff.

"My daughter joined the cheer program after doing one year of a recreational program. In the first season, my daughter achieved more new tumbling skills than I could even count, and has grown tremendously under Coach Amber‘s guidance as a flyer. I can’t thank this program enough for the growth my daughter has made as a cheerleader."

"Carolina Flipz is such a special place for our family. Our almost 2 year old son is in Mrs. Andrea’s class and loves coming every week. We have had so much fun learning new skills and cheering on our buddies in the class. We also love coming to the open gym on Fridays. My older daughter looks forward to it too. I highly recommend this gym to any family with young children looking to get some good exercise and make new friends."
