I'm 24 now. I had fun as a 16 year old doing my first gymnastics class, and most of the time it was…read morejust that- fun. We didn't end up polishing any skills I can put my finger on, though. I was only there for a year. If you join when you're older they seem to ignore you, as you've grown out of the age bracket. The worst thing for me is that one day I was learning to do a front walkover- something I never succeeded at because I was really scared after this- and my teachers were supposed to be spotting me. They said that they were confident in my ability and moved on to another student, leaving me in the center of the floor, pressured to perform. I had never done a front walkover before, there was nothing to be confident in. They were not giving me anymore attention- something they frequently did in favor of my younger, more naturally inclined classmates. But I tried anyway, due to their urging. My legs tucked too far up my back as I flipped over, and I didn't catch myself with my feet. I hurt myself pretty badly by bending my back too much and then falling onto the overextension, but didn't want to let on- for whatever reason. I was a "rub some dirt in it" kid. I cried in the bathroom for like ten minutes while the worst pain calmed down, then managed to feebly get through the rest of the class. Years later, I was getting an xray for something else, and the doctor noted I have a back misalignment "found typically in gymnasts". It's from injuries like what happened to me. Luckily it's minor and doesn't have something they can really do for it, but if I had been more confident without teacher supervision like they were trying to make me, I could have really hurt myself. So, not a great experience. Not gonna do anything about it at this point, and it's been so long since- but wanted parents to be aware what this place is about.

All three of my children have had lessons here…read more My boys love it. The instruction have improved their coordination and agility which makes them better athletes overall. My sons play baseball and have other activities during the spring and summer so they usually participate in gymnastics in the fall and winter. My daughter, 5, loves the developmental class.

I walked into my first class like a total creep mouse, scared to death that it would be full of high level practitioners with tons of ego who would scoff at my ineptitude. Yeah, it was literally nothing like that. From the moment I walked in, everyone there made me feel incredibly welcome. Yes, there are a ton of high level folks (along with newbies of course), but they are enthusiastic about sharing their knowledge with you. The instructors are fantastic teachers, as well as genuinely kind, encouraging people. I am now completely addicted and feel as if my week is not quite complete unless I've had at least three BJJ classes (preferably more) and two HMT classes. I've also dragged my son into it, and it's the first extra curricular activity in his life he's never complained about. Highly recommend this school.

Very disappointed and would not recommend for the price we paid. We had wanted to get swimming…read moreclasses for our 7 year old, 5 year old, and 4 year old boys. It was on the pricey side but we were told we going do a group discount if we did all three in the same class so we did that. Our 7 year old has been swimming for a couple of years but we wanted him to become a stronger swimmer, our 5 year old has been swimming for a year, and the 4 year old hadn't been swimming yet on his own. We wanted, and were told, that they would be pushed. Well, after a few classes the teach wouldn't let even our 7 year old swim by himself. The 7 year old and 5 year old were asking to be able to swim and dive for toys in the pool but the teach would not let them. Even after my wife told the teacher that they have been swimming and what we wanted she wouldn't listen. The level of swimming was appropriate for our 4 year old, not the other two. This, unfortunately, was only the beginning of the issues. We went to the company complaining about this, especially considering how much we were paying for these classes. It was completely useless for our two older boys. First off it was hard to get a hold of the owner, get call backs, responses to emails, etc. She/they would respond sometimes but then if we didn't reach out we wouldn't get anything for awhile. It took us about 5 months to try to work this out and that didn't happen. They would say things like kids aren't going to learn as much in a group class. Well, if that was the case we should have been told that in the first place and we wouldn't have done a group class. But that was also blamed on us. Nothing really was done or said about the teacher ignoring our requests to let the older ones swim. They seemed intent on blaming us rather then actually fixing the issue. We would have been open to retaking the classes for the older two initially, but by the time we got to that point it was the end of summer and too late. I have numerous examples of this in some of the email back and forth which I will try to refresh myself again and update this review with that information as well. In the end their solution was to refund us 29.50 of the 200 dollars saying that it was both their fault and our fault. I don't see in anyway how it was out fault, but that was consistent with the owner trying to blame us through most of the complaint process. In summary, the class was fine for our 4 year old, but a complete waste of money and time for the older two. The customer service from the owner was non-existent since she was blaming us and the teacher ignoring our requests was very frustrating. We would have been much better off taking the kids to Frederick County pool and paying for their cheaper classes.

Make sure that is something you are comfortable with, parents, because that's just how it is!! You may wonder how your kids are going to survive it but trust me - they do - because everyone is following the same set of rules. The counselors and administrative staff are super kind to each child and get to know their likes and dislikes. Kids with different abilities are welcomed with open arms if the administration feels they can safely be a part of the camp experience. This is the one camp out of the four BYM camps that offers arts experiences in addition to the immersion in nature. I hope their artistic programming will continue to develop and evolve to be inclusive to even more children, and I think it will from talking to the staff and hearing what they are working towards. Both of my kids have come home with lots of stories about enlightening experiences they've had - and new experiences seem to pop up each day as they have now been home less than a week. I am eternally grateful to BYM for giving my kids an opportunity to do something they never have, and can't wait to see what next year brings!!

My daughter was bullied in the camp--people putting lotion in her tampons, throwing things at her to be cruel and on and on. I had checked a couple of times to see how she was doing and if she needed to talk to me and was told it was best not to do so, that she was fine. Then I discover that she had been asking to call me and was told she could not. If she had called me, I might have been able to address the troubles and get something done to stop them. It was a bit traumatic for her and she has been talking about it for a year afterwards. I don't know why they didn't bother to follow up. But I would not send my child there again. What a giant amount of money to pay for a child to be abused by troubled kids.
