Great gymnastics place. Really feels like they know their stuff (even with little ones, they try hard to reach proper form!) and this is a labor of love for everyone involved. Only place we will go, even if it's a longer drive for us!

The coaches spend a lot of time talking to each other, rather than coaching the children. It's also a very small and chaotic environment.
