Review №1

My daughter has been raving about joining a gymnastics class. She was too excited the night before her first class that she couldn’t sleep! Well, I’ll say this place didn’t live up to the hype.Upon entering, nobody greeted us. Nobody asked her name. She joined the class (of two others) and the three “coaches”. The kids ran. They stretched. The coaches talked for 20m. Cool.They started their gym routine. Mind you, this is our first class. Forward rolls were the first and last thing she could do. Some back bend exercise she failed at, which is fine, but the coaches would stand back and do nothing. They watched her and did nothing to help. Several more exercises passed that she couldn’t do. Eventually, she began to cry. Maybe it’s from being overwhelmed. Maybe she was scared because she was disappointing her coaches or me. I don’t know, she wouldn’t say.The last 15m was free play. Mostly jumping in the foam pit. An hour long session with roughly 20m of “instruction”.Silver lining: she now knows that just because someone is a “coach” or a “teacher” doesn’t necessarily mean they have your best interests at heart. My class was nothing more than a social hour for some friends who got paid to talk to one another.I post this in hopes that parents of young kids new to gymnastics read it and they choose to go elsewhere.

Genesis has been a great find for our family with 2 young daughters. Lots of options of class types and a fairly wide schedule as well.#1 perk for us is that Genesis has home school focused classes for elementary age children that is during the day (rather than the evenings). To my knowledge these are the only day time classes that arent pre-school focused.Also top notch is their flexibility, we travel some for work and do miss classes at least once a month, so we really appreciate the flexible makeup class policy.In summary, great team and organization, we expect to be customers for a long time. Highly recommended!
