My daughter has been attending classes here for nearly a year. She started in basic gymnastics and quickly moved to 2. After a few months in gymnastics 2, her coach (who she adores) suggested moving her to tumbling. She was quickly moved to tumbling 2 and is currently being switched to tumbling 3. Her coach is very thorough. She absolutely loves coming to gymnastics here. Shes even attended a parents night out on a weekend and enjoyed herself there too. Im so happy that I was told about this place, and Im so happy that everything is going so well. I read the reviews and I havent had any negative experiences here. Maybe theyve adjusted their staff/class sizes/etc. Either way, no complaints here!

We love this place! Our daughter goes here and she loves her classes. The coaches are really great with her and take their time to show her how she is supposed to do each exercise. All staff are really nice and friendly!

We attended the Mom and Me class tonight and Miss Brooke was fantastic! She was patient with the kids and her instructions were very clear. She had plenty of activities planned for the kids and the rotations lasted just long enough that my almost 2-year old didn’t get too distracted. There were only about 4 kids in the class, which I felt was a good number. The instructor for the Weds mommy and me class gets 5 stars from me.The facility, while quite large, seems a little shabby, and some of the pads and bumpers need to be repaired or replaced. Structurally the equipment seems fine, but we only used a small portion of the equipment. The facility gets 3 stars, maybe 4. It seems like a very large facility.The front desk staff was helpful, although the lady working the desk tonight didn’t know how to set up my card for recurring payments, and we signed up for an entire month of classes, with the intent to attend the mommy and me class until my son is too old for it. Front desk staff gets 4 stars. Anyone who works the front desk should be trained in all the operations.I am going to have my 9 year old daughter try out some classes here, too, and we’ll see how that goes.

We took our 5.5 year old to a trial class. I was informed he had a substitute teacher, but he was very kind. I purchased a Groupon after this for his first month [3 more classes] We are excited to go back tomorrow! He had his trial class mid December. The front desk was knowledgeable and efficient. Our little guy refused to stretch and had some anxiety in his first visit and his teacher was very patient with him. He was good to go once the tumbling started ;-) Thank you for offering boys gymnastics as so many around the area do not. I find the $70 per month a fair price for 4 classes. I hope to continue here and that our little keeps enjoying it. Saturday class makes it perfect for our schedule with one in Kinder and no evening time available.

Awesome coaches, nice and helpful front office staff and first class facility. The coaches here are excellent at instilling confidence in the athletes from beginners on up. We started in June and my child loves her classes and coaches. I recommend enrolling in both skills and tumbling so you can see what your child likes best. Mine ended up liking both.

I have not enrolled in a class here so I cant comment on their classes. But, I am searching high and low for a good, fun class for my 2 and a half year old. When I walked in, there was no one to be found. I decided to just walked through and try to find someone and I saw a teacher with some kids that were just sitting on the floor in the break room. She completely ignored me, so I had to walk up and say I just had a simple question. She seemed irritated so I very quickly asked if they had any classes for my son at 2 & 1/2. She said no. That was it. So we left.I now learn they DO have classes for his age in the fall that I wouldve signed him up! Now, I wont be going back. Terrible customer service. Hopefully this one teacher is not an indication of the rest of their staff.

My daughter was an optional gymnast at Empire for several years, but we chose to leave after the owner told me that her number one priority is protecting the coaches over the gymnasts. She was livid that my daughter told us things that happened at practice, saying she could no longer trust my daughter, as she expects the girls to keep secrets from their parents.They also enroll way too many kids for the number of coaches. My daughter was seriously injured when she fell from the bars when the coach walked away while he should have been spotting her. There were too many kids for the number of coaches and they had knocked the mats out from under the bar, so her fall wasn’t cushioned. No coach even called us; my daughter had to call to be picked up for X-rays. (The coach made her call from the coach’s phone for proof they had contacted us, but she told my daughter she didn’t actually want to talk to us.). And when we arrived to take her to the ER, the head coach did not even come speak to us about the injury.Empire will take yiur money. But they won’t keep yiur child’s well being at the forefront. They will expect her to keep secrets, and if she gets hurt at practice, they won’t take care of her. So just be warned.

Last summer, we put our daughter in camp here. The person leading the camp was very rude, and the class was chaotic. We searched around for other places, but Empire still seemed to have the best reviews. So, we tried Empire again for one time/week classes for our 5 year old and 3 year old. While my 5 year old has gotten okay coaching, she hasnt really progressed. There just isnt enough time for instruction for the number of kids in the class. The kids stand in line one behind the other and perform handstands, cartwheels, forward rolls, etc. The coach is available about once per movement to correct form. My 3 year old ended up with the same instructor that was rude to us over the summer. My son is the only boy and he is in a class with about 5 or so very sweet little girls. I have sat in the parents area for about 6 weeks now waiting for the same level of attention on him as the other girls receive and have decided its time to take him out of the class. After watching the instructor allow my son to skip one of the movements (her head was turned watching other girls EVERY time), I decided to confront her. I asked if he was supposed to do the same movement as the other girls, and she said that he may not be emotionally mature enough to do it and that he may be afraid of heights. When I told her I had watched her for 6 weeks not engage with my son, she was passive aggressive and told my son that she was glad his injury had healed and said to me maybe hes scared because he fell. You can interpret that however you wish. My interpretation is that this instructor not only has no patience for children with energy but she also does not want to take responsibility for their development.

I tried to join the team here about a year ago. I was 10 years old and they wouldnt allow me on the team because I was too old. So unless you are an 8 year old or younger, they wont let you on the level 4 team. Made me feel really bad about myself.
