We love Sonshine Academy! Our daughter goes there for swim lessons during the summer and gymnastics during the school year. All of her teachers and coaches have been amazing! They work so well with her and the other kids. I highly recommend Sonshine to anyone looking for swim or gymnastics classes.

Great kids birthday place. Very well organized. Due to the nature of the gym you must stay on their schedule so you dont have as much freedom as some kids prefer. They do keep two employees with you the whole time and they are great with the kids. They also help serve the cake, cookies, juice etc and escort kids to and from gym and party room.

Two of my grandchildren attend the cheer Academy. The staff is great with children and parents. Their cheer teams usually compete in competitions across the US, but due to virus that didnt happen this year.

We love Sonshine Swim Academy!!! My grandson has learned so much over the past 2 summers. He started not even willing to put his face in the water at the beginning of last summer and was swimming across the pool by the end. He picked up right where he was this year and has already learned new skills after only 2 lessons! Ms. Britain is the best teacher!

My daughter loves Coach Aaliyah! She encourages and pushes my daughter to be her best. We appreciate her commitment to the girls. Also, Coach Aaliyah’s example of physical fitness has pushed my daughter to set goals to increase her strength at home.

If you are looking for the best Child Activity Center in the Conway area, 3rd Level Consulting recommends Sonshine Academy. Based on our decades of working with Children’s Education, Entertainment, Arts, and Sports Instruction programs in multiple industries and Countries, we are confident in our recommendation.

We made the decision to switch to Sonshine a year ago and are very pleased with our decision. Sonshine offers amazing programs for kids of all ages and interests. It is an amazing place for your kids to grow! We love how the coaches nurture their students in learning and confidence. The staff is always energetic and smiling. The atmosphere is a place where our daughter can grow and develop skills to not just physically succeed but to spiritually grow.

The teacher in gymnastics class never made eye contact with my daughter, whenever at the end of the class time she was giving stamps my girl was ALWAYS the last one to receive one. She also was not enthusiastic about her job. She started a little later and ended the class a little earlier. Seemed like she was killing her time there and did not enjoy what she was doing. We are at another studio and I can see how much enthusiasm the teacher has. She stays in contact with every student and my daughter shows great results there while at Sonshine she was rebellious. I believe she behaved that way to get at least some attention from the teacher who openly ignored her.

My experience with the dance program here was average. I was looking for another place to dance in Conway that would keep me dancing through high school but would also help me to improve. Though I have appreciated and remembered some of the main instructor, Michelles (she has now seperated from Sonshine and moved to open her own studio), corrections, she did not place me in the appropriate level (too easy) and concentrated way too hard on perfecting the dances for the Christmas performance and annual recital, though she claimed we were working on technique through performing the dances (this got even less challenging once the dance was finished and all we did was run and perfect it. Nothing new was learned except, perhaps, that I needed to work on my stamina). This studio succeeded in keeping me dancing but seriously lacked with furthering my development (this being said, I am a serious dancer who constantly strives to improve, if you are a dancer who simply wants to keep dancing, this studio is for you. It is the best studio in Conway that covers all disciplines of dance pretty thoroughly, though I strongly suggest looking at Blackbird Academy of Arts of Central Arkansas Ballet if your child is looking for a nearby and strong ballet program). The students however were the nicest students Ive ever encountered in Conway studios, which was a plus. I also like their new Acro for Dancers class, though the instuctor is not very personable or sympathetic with the students (he is a UCA student himself) and, if you are a high school dancer like I was when I attended this studio, will catch on a lot faster and be forced to wait for the other, much younger dancers to learn the acro trick. I will not ever be returning to this studio.
