This is a great gymnastics school with lots of equipment for your kids to jump, roll and tumble on…read more The very best thing in here is the rectangular shaped trampoline that's at least 20 feet long. At the end of the trampoline there's a huge pit filled with hundreds of foam blocks. Oh my goodness, so much fun!! Yes, I've been on it several times. :) Try and go bouncing down that trampoline and jumping into those foam blocks without a huge smile on your face, I dare you. I can't be done. It's impossible not to be happy doing that. They also give wonderful birthday parties for children. For $150 you get the entire gym to yourself, all paper products and utensils, and two party workers to entertain and supervise your child and their guests. You provide the food and drinks as well as the cake. Not too bad. You don't have to lift a finger at the party if you don't want to. The party workers handle everything. The other wonderful thing about Gymnastics Plus? Kids Night Out. Every Friday night from 6-10 PM you can drop your kids off for cheaper than what it costs to get a sitter. They play and watch movies, make crafts and are even served a pizza dinner. They are completely worn out when you pick them up and beg to go back as soon as they leave. Guess where my kiddos are going to be every Friday night? ;)

I really don't like giving negative reviews as it makes me feel mean but the whole point of this is…read moreto share our honest experiences so here goes. I first took my son here in June or July for the swimming lessons. They said that the person that was supposed to do the classes had an injury so they had different teachers. It was a week long session for 40 minutes in the morning. My son is 2 and a bit and these lessons were advertised as specifically being for his age group. When I got there for the first lesson I met the teachers. They were 3 young girls maybe between 17 and 21 (I'm guessing). It didn't matter though as I assumed that they would have been through some special training on how to teach this age group. They were lovely girls but it was a waste of time. They didn't know how to deal with the children and I just taught my son myself at home. They are probably good for older children but not the younger ones. Following this I decided to enroll my son in a me and my shadow gymnastics class. He's very agile and always jumping around like a monkey so I thought it would be great for him. The teacher Tori was really nice, great with the kids and good at gymnastics. My son really wasn't getting anything out of it though. He didn't enjoy it at all. Then one evening I went there and Tori had sprained her ankle so they said another girl would take the class. She wasn't great with the children, didn't have a plan, was bored and constantly looking at her watch. The class ended early and was pointless. I decided that this wasn't working. I gave it a fair shot of 3 months. I emailed about 2 weeks before the month was starting to let them know that we wouldn't be continuing and was told that I would have to pay for the following month anyway. I don't remember reading this but oh well! Today they called me because when they they went to run my card it said it was invalid. She started talking to me like I was a child and telling me about a $25 fee. I told her that we wouldn't be bringing him back anyway and this seemed to confuse her. I feel like they are greedy and probably good for older children but they arent really great for the younger ones.

I attended a birthday party for my 5 year old niece here yesterday and had an ok time…read more It's a gym - like for gymnasts - so it's fully functional with all apparatus. It would've been nice to have personnel there to help the kids try some of the equipment, as they were eyeing up the taller beams and the bars, but I guess that wasn't part of the party. There were two floor trampolines and only one child was allowed on each. Not cool when that's where all of the kids want to be. No one directed the kids to other activities or helped. Parents just stood on the fray with one employee standing there as well. The only thing I heard the employee say was that only one child was allowed on the trampolines. I felt like this could've posed a safety issue. Luckily this was a very small party. There was a bounce house that was barely used, a couple of floor beams and a single bar. Some of the kids wanted icees and the birthday girl's mom assumes they were included in the party. Not. After several kids decided they wanted icees she had to add the cost to her party. There should have been more explanation up front I guess. It seemed that they were lacking organization and personnel to supervise and help the kids. No one seemed to do anything much. My sister in law had to cut the cake and pass it out. The staff put the pizzas on the table and walked away. Kids got their own pizza and I guess shared their germs since we all know at 5 they can't just touch one piece of pizza when trying to decide on the "best" piece. Pluses - the gym, party area and restrooms were clean, the employee working the icee counter was sweet. Also judging by the equipment, the gym itself looks like a legit spot to take gymnastics classes.

Zero. Basically a place to drop the kids for boring babysitting. Staff are extremely…read moreuneducated--either high school kids who have no answers to basic questions or adults who are rude and don't understand much outside of "the kids run around over there..it costs this much" and actually, I had a very difficult time getting even that simple of an answer. The vibe is that the people who work or frequent this place are people who have always gone here and don't know any better or different.

I recently stopped by the academy to inquire about classes for my young son John. John originally…read morewent to the academy for a birthday party about two year ago and wow the kids loved it. There was a place for cake and ice cream, we open presents on the gym mats and the kids had free reign of the facility to play and exercise. balance beams, trampolines, uneven bars, a large foam pit to jump into from a rope.....after that experience we decided to look into classes and John loved them, but we left after 60 days as family was visiting and our schedule was too full. I love that they have a separate viewing room in the mezzanine for parents, only staff and students are allowed on the gym floor during classes. All classes warm-up together and then split off into their groups. The staff is super nice and many have been their for many years. The have gymnastics, tumbling, cheer-leading and more.....There are cubbies to store your wear during a class and the office has snacks for sale from sports drinks and chips to candy and ice cream....I would highly recommend to all and we'll be enrolling John in classes again.....$60.00 per month

I've been there since summer of 2015 - and my child LOVES it there, she WANTS to be there...things…read moreare good there, and my child is improving everyday! Yes I know and see and hear all the negativity going on, and its foolish in my opinion. But in my short time so far, we have nothing negative to say and so do a lot of other parents that are still there.
