I had a Birthday party for my son at NYC Elite this past weekend. The people running it (some of…read morethem) were obnoxious. It was clear they were in a rush to get home. That, I understand but this was too much. I had a friend waiting at the door in the freezing cold waiting to get in and texting me. To get into the rest of the particulars is not worth the agitation. Suffice it to say, have your son or daughters Birthday party somewhere else. I will add, we had a great Birthday party for my son there last year. He goes to school in the neighborhood which made it convenient for me and the other parents. With all of the great places to choose in NYC I would say avoid NYC Elite at all costs. It is not worth the experience or the inconsistency.

I wish I could give this center zero stars to rate it. Despite having a long-standing good…read morereputation, they show no interest in working with the kids scheduling or enrollment. Despite of working according to their schedule, they're unwilling to provide the available times or days. I've been pursuing them for over a year now. I've tried to manage my time and day accordingly, but they always come up with some excuse or the other. Recently, I've been trying to enroll my five-year-old for over a month now. They said spot for 5 year old will open in April for certain day/time and that they will confirm once we enroll but enrollment shall be done on 31st not before that. I emailed them on 31st if I can begin enrollment and that spot is still open. They responded next day, that now the class is for an older group. Could you please explain why you advised me to check for enrollment for April? Few days prior to 31st, I checked again with you about this months enrollment, and you advised me to wait and check on the 31st only, not before that. You could have informed me that we don't have a class for that age group, period. If you were to add classes for older kids, why did you ask me to get assurance with you about April enrollment for that very day and time? Oh wait, you must have decided on the 31st itself to open classes for older kids for the same timing? Correct? Why didn't you communicate that to me well in advance especially when you know a parent is checking for the spot on the day and time that you only had mentioned? Mind you, this is just one month of experience. I've been trying my luck for a year now, and I have all the relevant emails to prove. There's no apology, no remorse, and no attempt to work with the client's schedule. Neither they anticipate that the client is trying to join the center, but they're not prepared to cooperate. It's tiring to be honest. I've already mentioned to them that I don't want my daughter to be coached by coach Irina. She spends more than half an hour near the trampoline, sitting on one side and never getting up. All she asks the kids to do is jump, without teaching them any technique. One time, she had just two kids, and my daughter got hurt. She couldn't even take care of just two kids in her class. Even after repeatedly mentioning to not give my kid that coach, he still suggests that I attend her classes only and that the only availability is with her. How ignorant can they be? If they don't want to enroll my child, simply tell me in my face rather than playing games to come today, check tomorrow, and enroll day after. They have taken this complaint very personally I must say. There's this person who sits behind the email and causes trouble for the potential family who wishes to enroll their child. They don't have a face, and when we visit the center to talk about this. There is this lady who tells us to speak to the person via email regarding scheduling. Whenever I agreed on a date and time for my child's enrollment that you offered, you somehow come up with ridiculous excuses to prevent me from enrolling. Well done! Keep up the good work. But again, it's useless to discuss matters via emails without a name. How safe are you, Aren't you? You have my phone number in previous enrollment form. If you have responsibility, you should be calling and resolving this issue, which is what customer service entails. You have lost business here, take it somewhere else and enjoy mocking other parents. I don't need anything to do with Us gym leonia from here on. This is completely preposterous and ignorant. And if the new enrollment parents who don't know this center already had one shameful case one of their coach who does not work there any more. But it was bad and pretty public. You can certainly google and see for yourself what is this case about. I am certain that after reading my comment, they will respond by stating, "Our scheduling and cancellation policies are meticulously crafted to ensure that spots in classes are accessible to all interested participants. Holding multiple spots would inadvertently prevent others from enrolling but also we are flexible for you." Horrible! Horrible and Horrible!

I only signed up my kid because her cousin was in the Jr Ninja class. First few classes were ok but…read morethere is usually a substitute trainer at least once a month. The sub trainer just let the kids do their thing while he looks at his phone. One trainer there, always happy high five-ing and telling the kids that they did a great job but that trainer is for the younger kids that my kid is too old for. Would love my kid to be in that class. The last class of the season, the trainer told the kids to leave 5 minutes before the end of the class. No goodbye for a great season. Nothing. Kids were upset because they thought they did something wrong. That was the last straw.

The free infant class is a full house and there are a ton of regulars. The instructors know how to put on a good show for both parents and nannies and the whole family ends up having a blast. Infants under 6 months are free and will listen to music and practice tummy time. But the creme de la creme is what they call showtime where the instructors will take each of the babies with bare feet and have the babies try to balance and stand or sit on the instructor's hands without any assistance. And no matter the baby, they do it! My kiddo has learned so much each week and can now stand.

I decided to get into more functional movement training to compliment my yoga practice and came across TransformGST. Pulled the trigger and signed up for a yearly membership after taking a few classes via Classpass. So far, no disappointments! All the instructors are extremely supportive (Jan's a funny guy) and helpful. The classes are pretty accessible for most folks, but the barrier to entry is smaller if you're physically in shape. Did my first (sloppy) muscle up at the gym this weekend, which felt a lot better than finding your 1RM on a heavy lift. :-) I'll update this a few months into my membership.

There was so much to do that I didn't need to hire a face painter, a musician or anything else to make this party absolutely stellar. The kids ranging from 1 to 7 years old had a great time. The staff were friendly and engaging of the kids while on the mats. Off the mats, I supplied the pizza, drinks, cake, etc which worked out okay. My complaint was that I had reserved the place with 50 kids in mind which usually requires extra staff and I felt like the amount of staff they had to help when off the mats was not enough...they weren't great about handing out pizza and cake/cupcakes and helping the kids find a seat...they didn't even have enough seats set up for all of the kids that I had reserved for...so, that is why I'm not giving them a perfect score...if they were better with helping the food end of things which is part of their party responsibilities, I would have given a perfect rating. I would book a party here again...it was perfect for this age group and definitely perfect for older kids...well worth the price charged for NYC prices...but book early as they fill every party slot months in advance.
