This review is based off of my experience of my daughter being enrolled In the jumping jellybeans program on Saturdays for two years.I would have to say overall my experience was negative. The coaches were often stand-offish and seemed like they were lacking patience with the kids. If your child is not disciplined enough or doesn’t listen well, your child will be kicked around between different coaches.The gym on Saturdays often seemed overcrowded with too many programs going on at once. This creates lots of distractions thus creating a distracted child.The gym was very dark and gloomy. I felt that it was incredibly uninspiring and definitely in need of more light.The parking is also terrible and if you didn’t arrive 15-20 minutes before the class starts, you as a parent would end up not being able to find good seats or let alone a seat at all.Coaches that work there often quit creating high turnover and confusion as I would not know who to talk to about my daughters progress. The coaches were also behind on updating skills in the skill chart which was frustrating as this was supposed to be an interface for parents to keep track of their child’s progress in the program.My suggestions for the owner and management would be to reduce turnover and to increase the size of facilities. I would also suggest using brighter colors, lighting and more windows.

My child has been with Gymnastics Elite West since she was 18 months old. We absoutely love it. The coaches frequently update me on how my child is doing and the staff is great! I wouldnt go elsewhere!

My Daughter attended Gymnastics and All-Star Cheer at Gymnastics Elite West, and the only thing I can say is if you need more stress and confusion in your life then this is the place to go. When my daughter first started at Elite she did Gymnastics and Tumbling classes there were no issues, and my daughter loved going to class. My daughter started All Star Cheer in January and since then it has been nothing but downhill from there. Parents paid a booster fee to get items for the Cheer team and that includes a backpack with my daughters name on it that was never done, shirts for parents with my daughters name on it and that was never done. The billing was completely messed up when their manager left, charged three times in one month, and being accused several times that I had not made a payment when in fact I had to provide my bank statement more than twice to get the credit to my daughters account. Then comes the issues with coaches, being talked down to and yelled at and being told what my daughter can and can not do at another gym because the cheer coach did not want another coach help my daughter, so she gets yelled at. My daughter did gymnastics, cheer, and tumbling we were there more then we were at home. This business claims always about fun when a 10-year-old goes and have fun and it stuck between two grown men fighting about helping her with the same thing is ridiculous and uncalled for and plain immature! The owner confronted the said coach and then he retaliated against a 10-year-old, and me for making the owner yell at him. When I told the owner of the issues I am told they have had issues in the past with the said coach so it takes a 10-year-old crying and leaving a team for the owner to do something about this coach? Pretty sad when employees of the gym sends me a text apologizing for the coachs actions and the outcome of the entire situation. My opinion is to go to a different GYM unless you want a headache and problems for your child to have fun! The best thing about this place was meeting certain coaches that do care about the kids and truly love their job instead of coaches competing with each other on who is going to help a child. Poorly ran gym and more so poorly customer service from the owner himself.

Very disappointed with this gym. My daughter is very young (4yrs) and was moved up to the bronze level recently . She is very petite, reserved and shy. Her new coach was not very understanding of my child’s personality. My child was sent home on several occasions for not wanting to warm up with the other children because she was afraid of getting shoved when running in a circle with children much bigger than her. In addition to my four-year-old, I have an 18-month-old. As you can imagine it was very upsetting to spend my entire morning getting them ready to travel to class, to be told that she cannot participate .I understand that gymnastics, in addition to other things, it’s meant to build character and work ethic. I also understand the importance of warming up before any type of exercise. But what was really upsetting was that on each occasion several other girls showed up to class over 15 minutes late, and went straight into their gymnastics class, without the warm-up. They were not asked to leave . Where is the fairness?Kind of makes me wonder if this was some sort of prejudice. Will never be returning, and I suggest you look for other options as well.

We have been coming for over 3 years and we love it here. Only place we could find classes for all our kids at the same time. One mommy and me, one gymnastics and one tumbling. Plus great and patient coaches!

Great experience for children! Less expensive than a babysitter who is sitting on his/her phone, watching television, eating all our groceries! And children learn, exercise, socialize, and have fun! My only suggestion at this point, is for employees to be more assertive and present at the doors, introducing themselves to all parents, answering questions with excitement and knowledge, putting parents at ease for leaving their children in a public place for child care. Thank you for your service!

The coaches are very interactive with the kids. My daughter is very passionate about gymnastics and she has improved in such a short time. They really know what they are doing, I go observe my daughter twice a week and have noticed multiple children that have also improved immensely. Great job.

My girls enjoy their weekly class and had a great time at camp during the Thanksgiving holiday. They are learning a lot and look forward to getting better. My only recommendation is smaller class sizes for the new kids. My girls started late (ages 5 and 6) and they have a long way to go. The class has varying ranges of ability, so it would be great if there was a specific class for those that are brand new so they get more of the basics and then graduate to a different level.

Coaches act like kids. Half the class is spent joking around with the other coaches. No serious training going on. If youre just looking for a daycare type setting then this is the place to go. If you want serious training for your kids then go somewhere else.

I went to elite for a couple of years then I went to Melissas gym,elite may be a bit pricey but its worth it even tho Melissas has all the levels and is cheap you dont get taught right after being at Melissas for 3 years I went back to elite and I was doing a lot of the things wrong, I strongly recommend Elite
