Had my daughter's birthday party here over the weekend. They supplied balloons, chairs, tables and time to play in the gym. They all had a blast, if you are looking for something different when it comes to Bday parties I'd highly suggest it. They are a full gym with balance beams and what not but do not know about anything specific as far as cost, times, etc.

Too crowded , the kids do not have much time to practice. Some coaches do not pay much attention to how the kids practice right or wrong .

My daughter recently started a class here and absolutely loves it. She's only 3 years old and has begging us to go! The owner teaches the class which is an hour once a week and 100% keeps all the kids in line. She makes sure every child is included in the class activities and makes them feel good. A bunch of toddlers running around can get a little crazy but she doesn't lose her patients and keeps the class going! Well worth the money for the structure and physical activity!
