"We have been sending our kids to Lonestar since they were 3, so the last 10 years. They have progressed from young kids classes to the color levels and now are in teams. It is fun to see the progress, strength and new abilities they learn. Coaches are fin and kind!"

"This place is great overall with the equipment and the amount of good quality coaches. I have been attending for a little over 7 months and I have had a lot of skill growth! But recently my parents have come to dislike the rising prices for 4 week classes and I agree with them. I feel like they should go back to $85 for 4 weeks, but that's just my opinion. Other than the price everything's great!"
