After signing up my kids for a day camp which was 165$ - they unfortunately woke up not feeling well so since i had to call last minute and cancel i of course did not expect a refund but a makeup token to be able to rebook a camp day in the future!! They gave me a credit for only one of my kids which was 82$,despite repeated attempts to get credit back for the entire amount .. my concerns were largely ignored, leaving me feeling frustrated and completely disregarded as a customer.

My daughters have been at Champions for 4 years and are now part of the EPIC Elite Cheer program…read more I asked my girls to describe the program, and one said that "The coaches make us work very hard, but they make it fun." The coaches are positive and focus on safety, and there is a sense of mutual respect between coaches and athletes. There are a lot of optional extra classes in tumbling, flexibility, jumps, and stunting; my girls would go to the gym every day if I let them. The community at EPIC Elite is great - there are fun, positive parents which makes team bonding events a pleasure, as opposed to a chore. Why 4 stars instead of 5? The new program started at the beginning of the summer, so I'll update when we're a little further into the year. As a new program, some of the processes and communication are still being ironed out, but the pros far outweigh the growing pains.

I hope something will actually get done about this. I like the owners very much, so it's disappointing seeing one person bring the place down.

Our son also did XPT and with that program he also did weapons drills and gymnastics. He really enjoys it. The teachers and instructors for the dragon program and really nice and keep the class moving so the kids don't get bored and continue learning. Now that our son is a color belt, the class is a bit longer and the program is much more structured and discipline which he is responding very well to.

Update: Looking back 2 years ago when my Maddux (now age 4) took Ms. Cathy's (Catherine) swim class…read moreto now on Monday Major (almost 2) will be taking this class at the same age! It is amazing what our children can do if they are just given the right tools. This class has literally been a life saver! On Easter Sunday Maddux was leaning over a pool to fill up a water gun and fell in. I was 10 feet away and of course got up and ran over to him but before I could get there he had already swam to the edge and was pulling himself out. He remembered these skills even 2 years later and wasn't shocked by the cold water. I could not have been more proud of him in that moment and so thankful we had him take this class! If you are considering lessons for your child Ms. Cathy Swim Austin is the only way to go!! The first week is tough but by the second week, they are loving it and the lessons learned are far more valuable than anything! We took our son to Ms Cathy's at just barely 2 years old! Yes, he cried the first couple of days. After that, it was all smiles and all so much fun to him. He loved it so much he wanted to jump in and swim over and over again and would get so excited to go to swim lessons. He now swims all over the pool comfortably and confidently. We will be taking his baby brother next summer.

Review I'm not…read moregoing to say this class worked, because it did not. Out of the nine kids in the class, the only ones successfully able to go across the pool and get themselves out of the water, were two kids, ages 6 and up. None of the other kids could get from the point of entry in the water, to the stairs on their own. In addition, about 25% of the class was still crying on day 5. I don't believe it is success if 80% are being assisted in the water on day 5, and 40% of the class is still screaming. My child included. After being tossed into the pool and submerged under water over and over, it did not "click" for my children. While this class is sold as teaching your kid to survive, and getting themselves out of the pool, there were zero times my two children were able to do so without the teacher's help. While her website states, "some children may need more than one session due to motor skill development," i don't think the majority of our class's inability to grasp this skill was due to their motor skill development. I write this review to encourage parents to think of their child's temperament and previous water experience before signing up. They will be thrown into the water, by you, over and over, and they will be forced to be submerged by the teacher. And they will scream. My children did not take kindly to this. I had to ask my husband to take off work on the second day to assist me in maintaining my sanity in the class. Keeping a positive persona to my children, while enduring screaming all around, while also, being responsible for ensuring my kids exited the pool, was not a one woman job. This is NOT a skills class. The fundamentals of kicking and holding your breath are not covered. It was after my two year old inhaled so much water over and over that she belched repeatedly to the point of almost vomiting, that I realized I needed to do the instruction myself. Maybe that was on me, I'll take that. It was also after Ms. Cathy repeatedly yelled "kick" at the kids and no one did, that I realized, oh I have to teach my kids that on my own. Happy to do so. But why did I pay $450 to realize I had to do all the basics in order for this class to "work?" Parents, know what you're getting into. If your child has little experience swimming, and all they've ever done is play in the shallow end of a pool, it will behoove your sanity to work on kicking and breathing A LOT before doing this class.

I've been doing virtual training with Meryl for almost two years. I was a bit skeptical about…read morevirtual training at first, but Meryl is able to keep the workouts varied and effective with minimal equipment. I travel frequently for work and she's able to be flexible with my schedule as well as adapt workouts that are feasible in a hotel room. Meryl was also able to adapt my workouts throughout my pregnancy, from incorporating more yoga /stretching to modifying exercises. I really appreciate that she could change up an entire workout on the fly depending on how I was feeling that day. It made it much easier for me to stay active during my pregnancy, even until late in the third trimester. If you're looking for someone who will be flexible with YOUR fitness goals (in my case, consistency and strength), Meryl is a great choice.

Meryl came highly recommended through a close friend at the perfect time for me and my husband…read more Several months into the pandemic lockdown, we realized that we'd fallen into a sedentary lifestyle that was doing our bodies and our sanity no favors. I joined Meryl's Zoom group workout class and it made me remember how WONDERFUL it feels to push my body and build strength. Meryl is an excellent coach; even in a group setting of varying levels Meryl knows exactly how to modify every move so that everyone is pushed appropriately. A few months ago my husband and I started personal training together as well with Meryl and it's really taken our training to the next level. Not only has it boosted our physical fitness but I can tell a difference into our confidence in and out of the gym as well. And my clothes are fitting better, which I am extremely happy about. I'm also a big fan of the types of workouts we do with Meryl in general. Each routine is intentional and focused. She's always happy to modify if something doesn't feel right, answer questions, and correct form. We look forward to our workouts every week!
