This gym overcharges immensely for low quality training. The coaches are uncertified and untrained.
A meet that has an entry fee of $25 will cost you over $200. The reasoning is that there are coaches fees and filing fees. The only coaches that attend are the owners, and that is even a questionable attendance. One is already being paid as a judge to be there and the other is an inexperienced husband there to basically babysit the kids.
Owner/coach is absent more than she is there and the only people that are actually hands on training are the uncertified parents that have pretty much donated their time to help pay for their child's own tuition.
She readily admits to being the most expensive but can't prove her quality. Other gyms in the area are a fraction of the cost for the same amount of hours with much more focused instruction.
Yet, among this all, she claims to not be about money, it's all about the children. Late fees of $25, up charging everything at least 30%, harassing people that have left the gym for monthly tuition that continued after withdrawal, etc. Seems like it is all about the $.
I would suggest to anyone looking at this gym to think long and hard about what you actually want, do you want a polished, winning gymnast, or do you want a lackluster child pushed through to the higher levels for the higher price of tuition?
