This place has saved my son. My son is autistic and I was so worried about him going to school and if people would understand him (speech delay) we started him here when he was two and now he is four. he begs to go. If school is not in session he cries if we drive by. The teachers and the staff are absolutely amazing. They are so understanding and so helpful and patient. my son now talks more than he ever did before and I am a firm believer its because of how they handled him in the classroom. now my daughter will be starting there this year and I am so excited.

Our 7 year old loves it! She said the coaches give her more help and attention to learn new things than the previous gym she attended in West Des Moines. The staff are very friendly and easy to work with if you are new to the gym. They offer clinics and a variety of classes.

Coaches are not very helpful and do not assist with each childs individual needs. Other than that it is a very nice gym with quality equipment.
