a week agoCoaches and staff are incredibly professional, patient, and seem to genuinely care about ensuring families have a good experience. Coaches are patient with littles who have a hard day. We've been going for a little over a year and love it so far. Especially the parents night outs (monthly), are a great opp to get away with some affordable child care. Love Coach Eve, Anna, Kellie, and all the staff.

a month agoThe coach and teacher ability to speak Spanish has made such a positive impact on my daughter's experience! Being able to connect with teachers in her native language made the learning process smoother and more enjoyable. She has learned specific gymnastics skills and techniques that she is proud of. Thanks

a year agoBoth our 2 year old and our 7 year old really enjoy coming here! My 2 year old not only gets various fun gymnastic lessons for the first half of class but also receives a creative hand's on activity and social time with children her age for the last half of class. We have tried various sports with my 7 year old and nothing has appealed to him as much as this class. He is eager to practice during the week and looks forward to achieving his “adventure path”(set goals) so he can graduate to the next level. I love that they give each student a handout of the exact goals they need to achieve before they can advance to the next level; that way they know what they need to work on for the next class. There are 5 categories to master (with 3 skills under each) vault & trampoline, bars, beam, floor and flexibility & conditioning. I have been impressed by all the coaches/teachers and how caring, patient, skilled and knowledgeable they all are (a big shout out to our awesome coaches, Coach Anna and Coach Nayah). The facilities are kept very clean and orderly. Both my children literally cheer when they know it’s Jump! Gymnastics day! We all highly recommend this place!

4 months agoOur 9-year-old has been taking classes at Jump! since she was three, and we now have a Deaf 6-year-old who is enjoying classes there. Jump! focuses on creating a fun atmosphere and keeping things positive, which may not turn the kiddos into olympic champions but is a lot happier for everyone involved in every other way. We especially appreciate that the coaches have worked hard to learn basic ASL to be able to coach our youngest; Jump! has several Deaf students in various classes, and they clearly care about making gymnastics accessible and enjoyable for everyone.

2 years agoMy 6yr old loves Jump! Looks forward to it each week. It’s great for littles. It’s a really encouraging environment and they keep it fun with sticker progress charts, silly games, obstacle courses, silly walks all while teaching skills. My kiddo has come so far in just a year thanks to some wonderful coaches. For me, the best part (other than her loving it) is the ease of scheduling a makeup class online, the good communication and all-around friendly staff who speak to the kiddos with kindness and respect. Special shout-out to Coaches Lynnae and Alex for teaching my kiddo so much while showing her such kindness this past year. We can’t wait for the year ahead!
