    **UPDATE** The owner has confirmed their policy is to NOT VERBALLY REVIEW the contract with new…read moremembers. **YOU MUST READ THE FINE PRINT - OR BETTER YET RUN FROM THIS PREDATORY COMPANY!!** Scam pricing and do NOT recommend for young children. Our child has attended 4 sessions of the 2 year old class that they recommended for him even though he is not even 2 years old yet. The classes consist of a very aggressive "coach" who starts the classes by immediately blasting very loud heavy metal music at volume levels well over the AAP recommended 60db. This is DAMAGING toddler's developing ear drums! After the intro, the rest of the class is continued blasting of heavy metal music while the "coach" yells for the toddlers to do different exercises. They do not actually TEACH anything. The parent is expected to lead and guide the child through the courses while the coaches very rarely help by holding a hand. Nothing taught or learned from the coaches or classes what so ever. My child has had anxiety and cried and every class he has attended. We hoped he would at least make friends at the class, but since the entire concept of Kidstrong is competition and "winning" the kids are all pitted against each other and are not friendly to each other. Even the parents seem to have the same unfriendly attitudes. There have been no smiling parents during the classes we have attended. Maybe they were all just as stressed out as I was as a parent trying to run my child through the 45 minutes of hell. While older children may enjoy the exercise and competitive nature of the program, Kidstrong seems completely inappropriate for very young children. Now to the SCAM PRICING MODEL: We signed up for the "month to month" plan over the phone and were never told of their ridiculous cancelation policy. I was told to come to the class about 5 minutes early to "sign paperwork". As instructed, I came 5 minutes early to the first class. The aggressive "coach" shoved a tablet in my face and said I need to sign many areas. Pressured by her aggression, I signed what I thought were just waivers, but apparently the cancel policy was within the electronic documents. At no time was the policy pointed out by anyone from Kidstrong or ever discussed verbally. We let Kidstrong know we were considering canceling on April 1 after bad experiences at all 4 classes. They still failed to mention at that time that we had to give a 30 day notice. They later told us we had to email about wanting to cancel. After sending the email they told us that even though our child hates the classes we are being forced to attend until JUNE 5th. They want to charge us for 2 more months after the date that we asked to cancel. Based on their policy, we would have had to have canceled the day that we started the classes in order to be able to actually be able to quit after 1 month. Again, at no time during my discussions with the Kidstrong employee who signed us up was it said that we would be REQUIRED to attend 2-3 months of classes by signing up. This is completely predatory practice to slip ridiculous membership terms and cancelation policy past parents by having them sign documents in the RUSHED and CHAOTIC 5 minutes prior to class while they hold crying toddlers scared by the blasting heavy metal music in the background. ***Check out at their Better Business Bureau ratings!
