"My 4 year old daughter and 5 year old son attend. We love this place. They keep it clean, they are friendly and do a great job of trying to work with different levels of experience. I recommend them to anyone that asks me about gymnastics for their kids. We like it so much we’ve officially signed my daughter up for the tumbling class."

"The place is very very full, so our daughter (and the rest of her class) gets very little time with an instructor or any equipment. They just sit on a mat and watch the “old kids” or stretch. The front desk is unresponsive on the phone and rude when you can reach someone. The place is filthy. We will not be renewing after this session. Please consider another gym before enrolling here"
