Not overall impressed with this program for the amount of money spent. There are other gyms in the area that are less expensive, more competitive, more friendly and more family like. I would definitely recommend exploring your options before signing up with CA.
The gym is big, beautiful and fully equipped, with knowledgeable staff and owners. However, the monthly price of tuition is extremely, unreasonably expensive at $329/month with no added perks and a lot of additional out of pocket expenses. Tumbling lessons aren't even included. Your athlete will not be trained for higher level stunting or tumbling unless you pay $50-$75/m extra for those classes or privates.
Be prepared to budget around 10K per year to have your athlete become an All Star Cheer member at this gym.
No Sibling discounts are offered unless they are all on a team.
Very disappointed with the comradery at competitions. The athletes get off stage and just disperse, leaving you to have to search for your child in a very large venue. After performances the CA crowd just disperses and are "seen but not heard".
Very disappointed in the choreography and routines. They say they are the "Best of the Best", but do not produce competitive routines.
Your athlete is required to spend an additional $350-$400 per season for 4 Rebel brand practice outfits (a sports bra and shorts).
Youth and higher teams only attend 1-2 in state competitions and on average 5 out of state Competitions, including NCA in Dallas TX. Additional costs include, hotel, food and transportation to and from.
If your athletes team receives a bid to Summit or worlds, be prepared to spend thousands on this event in Disney in Orlando Florida. read more
