The damn (ex) boyfriend!…read more In a two-day 16hr training session of 24 ladies 25-65 yrs, we heard time after time about how the girls got into cycling through the boyfriend, who, steered them all over the place - into the wrong seat, bad pedals, improper shoes, the wrong bike and insufficient education. The "Girls Got Skills" training with VeloGirls (Lorrie Lown) is designed to demystify cycling and break all the bad habits the boys teach us. After crashing, thrashing and bashing many of the ladies found their way to this course and left with so much confidence that "boy beater" should be the 'graduation' status. It's a course for all levels, yes even the experienced riders came back to basics. Lorri has is all set up with lessons, practice, pacing, food, fun and plenty of challenge - which we appreciated. The coaches and mentors were great supporters. Bummer is... I waited too long to hop on the Velogirls' train. It's the best way to ride safe, happy and fun in the Bay Area. Keep a look out for all kinds of rides, training/educational programs and good fun with the girls. Oh, and there is a co-ed singles ride every month too.

I picked up cycling - since that's what you do if you live in Palo Alto - and contacted the Velo Girls cycling club to find other women to ride with at my level. I have had an amazing experience with the group, everyone is so supportive a welcoming and we really have fun together! Lorri, the founder of the group is great and very knowledgeable - she has taught a ton of people to ride and has excellent communication skills that translate valuable information to even the most novice riders. More to love: 1) The club works as a valuable support network - members can reach out to one another to ask questions about anything cycling related and get answers from people with a lot of experience. I've also been able to schedule my own informal ride through the group email and meet other riders at my level. 2) They have scheduled rides (almost every day) all over the bay for road, mountain and cyclocross riders. 3) Lorri offers personal instruction --- including a race development program 4) They offer some free workshops that focus on things like basic bike handling skills and maintenance. 5) It's only $45/ year to join!

The dream to play major league…read morebaseball... the dream of becoming the next Ricky Henderson (I worshiped this cat when I was young) the dream of becoming the next Griffey or Bonds. Campbell Little League was the dopest little league around. Growing up all we thought about was making the majors 9-12yr olds. T-ball, farm, minors were all just stepping stones. Campbell little league and baseball in general is what kept me straight growing up. While my boys were wild'n out on the streets, I was at the field 24-7. I would either be playing, practicing, studying other teams, announcing, even umpiring at times (dream job as a teen). Most importantly I learned how to be a team player and a leader... more or less, they taught me how to be a man in the work place. I coached my old team one summer when I was 18 and it was one of the best experiences in my life! If you live in Campbell and have a boy/girl who wants to play ball... hopefully you are in their district!

Highly recommend for anyone looking for a league that combines strong organization with heart and care for the kids.

All of the details were taken care of, even some that we did not even consider.

My left our old gym due to it not being a good fit for my daughter anymore. My daughter is extremely driven and has a huge passion for cheer and tumbling. We are on the Elite Youth teams, we have two coaches who truly were a blessing for what my daughter needed. They are the perfect balance of structure and nurturing she has grown so much since we have been at this gym thanks to them and it has been it's truly amazing. Her memory is getting better and she is able to retain choreography faster as well as has been doing better in school with memory retention which she has always struggled with, She takes flexibility once a week, which has given her such beautiful tumbling form with straight legs. She loves tumbling and is always hungry to learn new skills. When we came she was a level 2 tumbler and in 7 months she is already perfecting some level 4 skills and she just turned 8 years old last week. The gym also offers open gym once a week for the students to work on their routine or tumbling, giving students always the opportunity to self improve. Privates- I believe all or mostly all coaches offer private lessons. Whenever we have choreo changed: learning a new skill or just want extra help to perfect skills we do private lessons. We have worked with many coaches at the gym. Coach Corrine is a sweet soul, shes fantastic for students who are learning new skills, she's very patient and encouraging and my daughter loved working with her. Coach Roy is perfect for high level tumblers who want to work and perfect skills, he has had many years in the business and has a huge understanding of the body mechanics that go into high-level skills! Families- Coming into a new gym the family dynamic is huge, it could be a make or break for the experience and I am saying we have some of the nicest families, we were welcomed to the team immediately. Our team has built our own little cheer family and it makes traveling for comps so enjoyable having each other to lean on, during very long comp days. Owner and management- our owner lives for her business, she truly puts her heart and soul into each and every team within her company. She takes time to get to know all the athletes in her program and spends equal attention to the senior teams as much a the novice. Her management team is ON IT! You need something, help with billing, scheduling, ordering and it is always a rapid response! We also have online apps to be able to communicate so any questions to owner or staff you can always get to who you need without stressing and guessing. When choosing a gym my main concerns were, is my daughter learning and advancing in her skills and is my daughter being taken care of emotionally, I never want to see the light in her dimmed and the love for the sport go away as well as I feel a trophy is never worth my daughters mental health. When I pick my daughter up from the studio she is motivated and hungry to come back and learn more, she would live at the gym if I let her. That is what makes ASA a wonderful healthy environment for young athletes.

I recently saw the review around discrimination and was very surprised to read about this experience. Being around this club for so many years, seeing the dense diversity throughout the club and specifically on our teams, I have only witnessed staff and coaches approach all players with equal respect and coaching across the board. This club has continuously shown a desire to grow its programs and develop players to their highest potential, while also focusing on the foundation of enjoying the game and learning long lasting life skills.

My daughter has been part of the LGU competitive program for several years now and I can confidently say it stands out as a truly inclusive and development-focused environment for players of all backgrounds. From day one, the program has demonstrated a commitment to equity, respect, and opportunity for every participant, regardless of race, ethnicity, gender, or socioeconomic background. Coaches and staff foster a culture where diversity is celebrated, and each player is valued not just for their skill, but for who they are. Our teams consistently were (and are) comprised of individuals of all colors and ethnicities and they have been celebrated and cultivated as the best, top players on our team. I've always felt the focus has been on finding the most talented girls with the best skill set for the team. LGU has created a close knit family environment and is working toward making the club a stronger and more desirable destination. I am excited about the move to ECNL and I have universally felt the goal is to grow the club and make it better without regard for race. Staff has also always treated us with respect and attention to strengthening player's skills looking toward supporting their long term goals. I have never witnessed dismissive behavior from club staff directed at certain ethnic groups. I don't know anyone on our team that has felt otherwise and I love their community.

I love how this place didn't even bat an eye (pun intended) at a pregnant woman wanting to whack a few slow pitch softballs to blow off some steam. Of course, I had the doc's permission, so it's was a perfect experience. Buy $15 of tokens on the debit card, borrow a bat at the desk and helmet from the back wall, you're good to go! I would recommend hand sanitizer before and after, as well as bringing a baseball cap to wear underneath the helmets if you borrow one - note: helmets are required and it doesn't matter if you're doing slow pitch or fast pitch or if your younger or older - helmets for all.

One of the highlights is to see the interactions between the older and younger players, supporting their matches, practicing together and offering tips and positive cheer. It definitely provides a big brother/mentorship environment. :) Our son enjoyed his first round of grass and beach volleyball in the spring and was thrilled to play on a summer team for the in house and SoCal tournament.

Many strong player are recruited from nearyby clubs and even out of state. The club fee is stated at $6,000-$8,000. That's only part of the travel volleyball cost. After travel, tournament fees, and other expenses, our total for the season was closer to $15,000-$20,000, which wasn't clearly explained upfront. Playing time was also very limited for many players, even during less important tournaments for -1, -2, -3 teams. It is understable that -1 team has this since -1 teams play in open division, want to win and get seen by the college recruits. -2 and -3 teams are more developmental. If players do not play, how will they improve? We heard quite a bit of frustration among middle school teams at bay to bay about this, where the focus should be really on learning and building confidence. The club might be a fit for families focused on competitive results and evetually want kids to become college players. Actually, many D1 teams have a large team roster. College players compete to even get the training time and let alone the play time on the court. So, some mental training is needed. Hoever, those looking for development, a healthy sport as life long hobby and clearer cost expectations should ask detailed questions before joining.

Overall, I don't feel that this program met our needs as far as…read moreproper skills, instruction, just feeling like you are learning the sport in a fun way as their advertising states. Day 1 = I observed kids calling other kids losers and saying things like you suck - prime opportunities for coaches/staff to redirect and teach the importance of sportsmanlike conduct and being team mates first. I was extremely upset that I witnessed my child and several other children being called a loser. It was a bunch of kids who don't know how to play soccer all trying to figure it out on their own with no instruction. I called and eventually spoke to the office manager, Melissa - she deserves 5 stars, really awesome. She was great - but my expectations as a parent leaving my child are that I still get a call back from the head coach/program director. That did not happen. Day 2 = a little better, my husband got there early and while he did not hear the loser/you suck - he did not see a lot of instruction happening with my son's level (age 9). Day 3 = I observed last 25 minutes of the day and one more time, zero coaching. There were easily 6 or 7 teachable moments for just general soccer 101 and I did not see those happen. I don't even know soccer very well but I know the kids can't hop, jump bounce, single arm throw in the ball. My expectations were high and I don't think they placed an appropriate coach with this age group, she was lovely, but this age level needs someone with a strong personality who can get control, I did not see that. We pulled him from camp and won't be returning. We could have just had an off week.
