I noticed there aren't many reviews of the birthday parties here, and wanted to put in my 2 cents worth. We just held my daughter's 5th party here, and it was mostly really great. The cost goes by how many kids you have, as it is a ratio of gymnastics staff to children. We had about 20 kids and needed 3 teachers, and it was $285. That is comparable to many of the other kids party places (jump zone, etc). For the price you get an hour of activities for the kids and then an hour in a party room for food and cake.
The person I spoke to on the phone was helpful as far as registering and giving me the information I needed to know as far as timing, etc. for the party. They are clear that children under 3 are not allowed on the gym floor during a party, except for siblings of the birthday child. I made sure to state this in my invite.
I had never been here before so I couldn't quite picture how big the place was. The facilities are great and the staff were mostly very nice (I stayed with my daughter's group for a bit and the woman could remember all the kids names after about 5 minutes, impressive) . A few days before, one of the staff called me and confirmed the number of kids, and also clarified that parents can watch but not go on the gym floor, except for the birthday kids' parents to take photos. I didn't think it would be a problem as I thought the place was smaller than it was. As one of the reviewers says below, if your child has issues separating there are no exceptions. I felt a little bad at first because two of the kids were feeling very shy, crying, and did not want to go out on the floor. HOWEVER, one of the staff, an older man, was great and let the kids have some time on the side with the parents. He worked his magic a few minutes later and the tears stopped, the kids were participating and all smiles. The issue is that you can't have 20 parents over running the place when the staff needs to make sure that safety is the priority on the gymnastics equipment. I get it.
Other than this small issue, I thought the party and set up were great. There was another party going on at the same time, but the kids are all divided into small groups with an instructor, and there are so many activities that you don't even notice. The staff kept the kids busy and my daughter and her friends had a really fun time.
It would be helpful if the web page for their parties was updated to clearly explain the policies on parents and siblings. I would just say, know your audience, if your child is not the type to enjoy being with a teacher on their own, don't hold their party here, and make sure that anyone you invite knows the policy as well. It could definitely be a drop- off party for older kids as well. read more
