The process was easy and very informative. All our questions from billing, to location, times, instructors, etc were answered at registration. The first class we came in and we were immediately greeted as we approached the front desk. I let them know it was our first visit. They welcomed us, introduced the instructor to me and my daughter and let us know how the process worked. The class is one hour and there is no wasted time. They move from station to station and get instructions on how to do the work they are focusing on. I look around at all the instructors and students and see many, many smiles and excited faces. I see the kids confidence being boosted as they accomplish the task at their skill level. They are challenged and encouraged. Our instructor's name is Faith. She is doing great with her group. Looking around, I see many instructors with kids at different skill levels all doing great things with their students. I am very happy with this gym. The equipment is well padded, the gym has much to offer in a safe environment. They have an excellent observation area right on floor level where things can be seen and heard. There is also a play area for kids not in gymnastics and WiFi is offered to guests.

I love how easy it was to find a class time that worked out, they have so many options. The online portal makes it so easy to sign up, pay, and communicate with the staff.

After roughly 18 consecutive years of being loyal patrons, at the request of our 12 year old…read moredaughter, our family left DeVeau's School of Gymnastics. Our child was made to feel uncomfortable and unsafe by owner/operator, Luke Lautzenheiser. It's been a few months and she still cries daily. DeVeau's coins itself as "...your kid's HAPPY PLACE" but how is that the case when a child is bullied and retaliated against (by the new owner) at the only gym she's known since age 3? This review is not to bash the gym but to share our heartbreaking experience. For my 12 year old child- it's about kids hearing the devastating voice of their peer and her inability to comprehend being bullied and retaliated against by an 'adult' at a place she once called her second home. For us as parents- it's about an unbelievable experience at a place we've loved, raved about and supported for many years and the continual mental trauma our 12 year old daughter suffers from months after making one of the hardest decisions of her little life. DeVeau's isn't the same place it used to be. Now the new owner walks out on the practice floor to intimidate children during practice. It's a place where children who are learning/practicing skills that if not fully focused could potentially cause harm being put in the position to focus on- Is Mr. Luke going to approach me today and if so, when and where? That was our child's focus at practice even with parental support in attendance. After giving notice, Luke still found a way to come after her by having his program manager attempt to keep her from competing at (what my kid calls "Big Kid's Nationals") USA Gymnastics Championships (although she qualified at her first competition) by failing to register her and not telling us until after the deadline. Yes, this happened at DeVeau's. Thankfully, a new gym (out of state) allowed her to join their team and they were able to get that corrected so she could practice and compete at Nationals. Sadly, this is the kind of retaliatory behavior that happens when a child doesn't agree to stay at DeVeau's once the gym owner apologizes after admittedly making her feel uncomfortable. Unfortunately, there are no other trampoline and tumbling programs in the Indianapolis area so our daughter had to give up her dream of continuing the sport for her current safety. There are so many wonderful coaches at DeVeau's and they are the best part of the gym. Even with the traumatic experience our daughter endured, she does have many wonderful memories of her time with coaches she loves. Those experiences are the things we will cherish. Hopefully those memories will help her in her healing process.

Didn't we all dream of being Cirque du Soleil performers as kids? Just me? Anyway!…read more Cirque Indy offers classes in silks/slings and Lyra and trapeze. I participated in Sling 1, the entry level course that goes over the basics. They don't allow photos in the studio except for the end of class, so I'll describe the space as best as I can remember. There's a front room with silks, Lyra, and trapeze set up over a spring-loaded floor. They have rainbow string lights around the support beams on the ceiling where the apparatuses are mounted. Pride and BLM flags on the wall! The back room is smaller and will switch between silks and slings (silks that are a loop at the bottom instead of a knot). There's a setup for 9 of those in the back room, which also has a mirror. We started with a full body warm up in the front room and then the aerial warmup was on the slings. Instructor Emily is very good at coaching all the movements from warm up through finish in this class. Sling 1 starts with the basics of aerial movement with a lot of standing movements and some basic inversions. We learned a little combo at the end to try out, and even if you're somewhat athletic, you'll still be in for a challenge! On this review are some photos of me doing some inversions. It's actually quite secure on the sling!

They make it look so easy and our instructor Nicki did too. She was super nice and patient with us. It took a second(for me) to feel comfortable enough to try some of the moves but then I was ready to try everything lol. Its also a nice little workout. There was mild perspiration during the class and a couple of days later some minor aches from the forgotten muscles. Parking can be a lil tricky but there is a lot a little ways down from the studio if you can't find anything along the side of the building. This would be so much fun with a group of friends. It would've maybe been less intimidating to be in a group of people all at the same level but even the more experienced people in our class were helpful and supportive. Will definitely love to try it again.

My daughter took some classes here and while she was happy, I was not in the same boat. I paid a…read moresignificant amount, thinking that she would have proper instruction and guidance. I'm reality, the "teachers" (who are all just high school students) demonstrated the skill once, and then my child was left lost as she was told to repeat the skill x10. She had a ton of fun, which is the most important, I understand she's a child, but I was just expecting more coaching from her "coach". The campus is very clean, nice parent section, it's located in a good part of town. Overall, if she would like to do it again, I may consider it. But I would not recommend this facility to another parent.

A great company that came in and took over USA gym HQ from the Karoli family after it emerged how badly they've been abusing all of their gymnasts (including the horrific scandal with the Michigan State doctor sexually abusing hundreds of them).

Our 8 year-old started with TGC 14 months ago, when they were in their former southside location…read more They combined the southside and Brookville Road gyms, to this location on Franklin Road. The new gym is huge and very well equipped. They have regular group lessons, but some of the instructors also do private lessons. Our daughter does level 1 travel team and has enjoyed it so much that she wants to continue to the level 2 travel team. We've never been to another gym, so I can't compare prices. All I know is IT AINT CHEAP! (lol) Team practice 2 x's per week, private lessons, team leotards, team warm-ups, team travel bag, hotels, etc. They do something unique. You can work in the concession stand for $10 or $15 per hour to be credited to your account, so that is very helpful. We have referred several of our daughter's classmates to join and they all seem happy as well.
