  My daughter has been going here for a year. The gym at first seemed to be OK. After the fall semester of classes they told me that she was very advanced and wanted her to join the advanced gymnastics for the next spring session. It was very expensive, but I made the choice to register her again because she enjoyed going. On her last day of gymnastics class for the spring semester my daughter told me she wanted to ask if she "got in" to the more advanced classes. I gave her permission to ask the coach "how the girls find out via a meeting or letter in the mail". My eight year old just asked "Excuse me coach Lexi but I wanted to know if I made it to advanced gymnastics for next year?", her response was with an attitude "I'm sorry but your not good enough" followed by a fake smile. As a mother who wants to protect her child I went into defense mode as tears ran down her cheeks. I told coach Lexi that not how you talk to an eight year old and you should never tell a child they are not good at something. If she didn't make the cut then you sit down with the child talk about all the good things they do and then talk about how next year the two of you will work hard on the things that need improvement, followed by being optimistic about trying out next year. I mean I don't think that's asking too much for a coach to do. These girls really look up to the coaches and to be treated so horribly is crushing. The owner just stood their with her arms crossed not saying a word. It's sad how she allows these young girls with no expierence to run the show and treat children this way. This place just wants your money, they don't care about the kids safety (my child got hurt multiple times), and they put too much competitive pressure on the children ( yelling at them throughout class) instead of promoting a enjoyable expierence. Gymnastics should be fun for children and this gym takes the joy out of your kids heart. Make the right choice and go somewhere else. Worst expierence of my life with rude and unprofessional people.
