Mercury Gymnastics

We love this gym for open gym and birthday parties. The gym is clean and has the best set up we’ve seen locally, with an ample amount of stuff to do. I don’t have much experience with the staff at this point but will update once our kiddos start gymnastics. Edit: We just had our first class with Jillian and I felt compelled to update. Our daughter was very nervous and I wasn’t sure if she’d participate. Jillian was so encouraging and kind and our daughter hopped right in. She ended up loving it! She walked out of the gym with a smile, a boost in confidence and excited to come back next week.

I did gymnastics here for 5 going on 6 years, but it was a while ago. I loved gymnastics with all my heart, but I should’ve stuck to it. One of the front desk ladies sometimes went down to watch, and ill i will say is she was the most degrading person i’ve ever seen to a 6 year old. I tried my hardest, I paid attention, but while the other kids could make many mistakes any singular flaw was pointed out. I was also once degraded for my weight (even though I was reasonably skinny). I hate to say the reason I quit my long term sport was because of a rude staff member, but it’s true.

The best gymnastics facility in the Northland, Mercury has great staff, convenient classes for kids of all ages and great accommodations for parents to watch from a raised viewing area with significant seating.

We have been to Mercury several times for other birthday parties and we were able to have my kid's birthday party here. the party was great, the kids loved the facility, and Kenzie was very helpful with our group. That part would get five stars. However, we had a less than pleasant experience with the management. Because of potential snow, we were told when we got to the party that all of the Sunday parties were moved to Saturday (since Mercury doesn't cancel, it is up to the parents). So instead of having an hour of private party time on the floor, we got thirty minutes. Then a group of 15+ 8 year olds joined in with our group of 3 and 4 year olds for the final 30 minutes before we had our private room for 30 minutes. I asked when the party was over for a discount because we did not have the private party we had reserved a few months in advance. This request was denied. They said we could have canceled when we were told about the change and that is why it was denied. What should I have done? Cancel my kid's birthday party 20 minutes before the other kids arrived and they also get to keep my deposit? So if you book a birthday party with Mercury, hopefully it is not when there is poor weather or else you might be paying full price for 2/3 of the party you reserved.

Wish there was a way to have some floor level seating or a better way of viewing the practice sessions. Everything else is top notch, great instructors, teaching while making it accessible and fun. Soon and daughter both love their groups.
