Colorado Eclipse is phenomenal! The staff truly has a heart for their athletes. I appreciate that they recognize each athletes' strengths and weakness, nurturing and growing their strengths while improving and building up their weakness. Colorado Eclipse empowers and helps build the confidence of my little. We started off at 14months in a mommy/daddy and me class where she learned to jump and tumble, at age 2 we progressed to creative movement where pointy toes and form are important, and now our little at 3 years old is on a cheer team; TEAM, learning to be with others, listens and follows instructions, picking up on timing, and learning cartwheels. All of these skills overwhelm my heart, so much growth in such a short amount of time. It's exciting! Thank you, CEA! read more

2 years ago Oct. 2016 I decide to put my 4 year old daughter in some dance classes since she loved dancing around the house. I found this company from them posting in a local buy and sell group. Right off the bat Demi was extremely welcoming and willing to answer any questions I had. My daughter has never done any sport or activity before. Shes was never even in daycare before this so I was unsure how she would handle it. Demi offered trial classes for free!! My daughter loved it right away! the staff was always so nice and interacted with each and every child throughout the whole class. She did ballet and tap and we also included tiny cheer and tumble class. Once a year they have a company showcase and my daughter got to perform for the first time on stage in front of an audience and she absolutely loved it!! She could not wait to get back on stage! Then July 2017 cheer season one - we decided to put her on the performance team where she would be able to have more performances. That team was for 3-5 year old I believe and was $100 a month. She had such a blast! she had her own little team of cheer sisters and brothers and felt like a real cheerleader! she got an adorable uniform and got to go to 2 competitions and they got 1st place both times!!! That whole season was nothing but positive! It was affordable, an amazing friendly coach, great parents and team mates. That experience made me become a lifer. This team was a beginner level this is where my daughter learned to do a cartwheel and forward rolls. July 2018 cheer season two - my daughter did tryouts and made the ELITE team!! She grew so much over just one season that she bypassed one of the stepping stones of a prep team and went right to ELITE! she went from just cartwheels and forward rolls only in May 2018 to having front and backwalkovers, all 3 splits, one handed cartwheels, chest stands, bow and arrow and scorpion plus more by Nov!!! Now she is working on back handsprings at 6 years old . I am so very proud of her and theres no way she would be where she is if it wasnt for her coaches. I see people complaining about pricing... and it seems as though they are all geared towards the Elite team. Yes, it is $300 a month. Yes, the uniform was close to $600. Yes, there is a 2 year contract. BUT ...... WE KNEW ABOUT ALL OF THESE THINGS BEFORE AGREEING!!! They do not hide anything! They send out a survey that asks what team is best for your family, they have multiple teams to fit everyones needs and wants. The Elite team IS NOT FOR EVERYONE it is a huge commitment! It is not a team to join just to try out cheer.... it is the team to join when you are dedicated, determined and want nothing but to win! If your child isn't competitive and wants a more laid back team they have that! We are told SOOOOOO many times what elite consists of as far as travel, competitions and cost up front. The Elite team is the role model for the other teams. It is the team with the super flashy uniforms and in it to win it. Every athelete on the team is at the gym at least 4 to 7 days a week sometimes until 830 at night. Working their butts off after school and they all show up and push themselves cause they want it. Coaches right there next to them helping them knock down those mental blocks. This gym has everything you need, great staff, owner, dance classes, tumble, cheer classes, cheer teams of different levels and costs, amazing positive atheletes and parents. Give them a shot... try a class for free .... people are always so quick to post a negative review then a positive. read more

My daughter started with this company taking an intro to cheer class and later joined the competition team. The gym owner Demi is extremely unprofessional and unorganized! I should have listened to the parents who left, but initially chose not to believe that a business owner would do these things. She failed to provide important details to parents about contracts and the upcoming year of competition. She wanted a 2 year contract for an 8 yr old girl. The standard contract for competition cheer is 1 yr( I called around). Her prices are astronimical and her 600 uniform retails for less than 200. When I told her my daughter would no longer cheer there she refused to give me the 1st uniform payment back, which was over 200( and I know for a fact NOTHING had been ordered yet). She did the same thing to another parent who paid the full 600! The previous season we didn't even have our uniforms for the first 2 events, and were forced to wear another teams uniforms. Steer clear from this gym unless you want your money stolen and mediocre training that will have to be fixed. She also tried to slap me with a 1000 cancellation fee and when I asked her to provide me a copy of a contract that stated I agreed to this she blatantly refused( because she didn't have a signed contract)!! Also it took over 6 months to get my daughter's pictures, which are not even in focus!!Drive to Fort Collins or Johnstown, it will definitely be a better option!! read more

If I could put 0 stars, I would. When I first took my daughter to Colorado Eclipse, I thought that it was great, I thought that she was safe there and that the company was all about the KIDS! This was NOT the case. After the last cheer season, a lot of parents started to see this company for what it really was: A money hungry, drama filled, dangerous place, where no one should be okay with sending their children. There was so much drama, from the OWNER and the STAFF, that 99% of the athletes that went to that gym, LEFT! I could probably go on and on all day long about my personal opinions regarding this place, but who has that kind of time, right? Just know that if you are considering taking your children here, you may want to do your homework and ask around. The TONS of people that have ran away from this company, including athletes and staff (that were UNPAID might I add), should be an indicator as to the unethical situation that you would be walking into. And the heartache and stress you would be signing yourself up for!! read more
