My son started taking classes here and absolutely loves it! I appreciate the energy of the instructors and the respect for each student. I was hoping for a class that teaches rigor, determination and skills and it seems that is exactly what we're getting at Swift. I love that it's not just "run and jump" the instructors are teaching technique and really encouraging the students to push their limits. It's all "super cool", as my son says.

Today's aerial performances were superb. The staff are dedicated to bringing out the best in their students and the students really shined.

Had my first lesson last week and had to immediately sign up. The staff are receptive and nice, the environment is very open, and with so many different classes to take youll find something youre into. Very excited to start working it into my regular routine.

My 10 year old son LOVES this place. The monthly membership price is a deal because he can go to as many classes as he wants to during the week. We've been going 2-3x each week and he is proud of how much he's learned and how much stronger he's gotten. The instructors are fun and kind while challenging.

Perfect gym for my kids! They get an amazing workout each time. The instructors really take the time to explain and demonstrate each move. My kids are learning new skills, which is giving them more confidence. The gym offers a stacked class list, which is great for our schedule. My one complaint is the parking lot. The spots near the gym seem adequate unless there are multiple full classes and the businesses in front of the building sometimes block the entrance to the parking lot.

Best place ever! I love it. IF YOU ARE LOOKING TO GET IN SHAPE BY JUST HAVING FUN LIKE A KID, THIS IS THE PLACE. Great variety of classes, and amazing facilities. The teachers are fun, and welcoming. Suited for all levels and ages. The all- access membership is worth it, which includes parkour, acrobatics, yoga, acro-yoga, flexibility, aerials, conditioning, adult games, open gym time to jump around and more (check the schedule). Plus you will meet a lot of great and fun people!
