This establishment is located in an industrial park of offices off of Roberts Road. Inside? High…read moreceilings, pleasant light blue paint on the walls, and good bright lighting. This is not an enormous place - but seems to fit the many spandex-covered young kids just fine. All the necessities: Floor, beams, vault, bars, trampolines, and plenty of floor padding mats. There is even a separate smaller room with equipment sized for toddlers - how cute. The participants seem to always be moving - a plus for those high energy ones. The front desk is out in the open. Two restrooms are prominently placed so one does not have to walk down the dim-lite hallway to the back by the loading docks. Three sets of small bleachers align the workout areas so parents can easily keep an eye on there child, or make sure the instructor is up to their par ;) Also, there is a decent amount of standing room for those times, when this place gets crowded. Trophies and pictures cover many of the walls, helping to make this place more "cozy".

We loved Fliptastic for many years. However, the experience once we joined the team was less than…read morepositive for a number of reasons. We ended up leaving the team, and several other gymnasts did as well around the same time, being careful not to burn the bridge there since we had loved being there for many years and leaving was quite sad for us. Several of us ended up together at another gym, and a few months later our new gym was barred from competing at Fliptastic's "Follow Your Dreams" competition, citing capacity. Only our gym. Seems suspicious to say the least. It's one thing to have hard feelings against us, but to take it out on an entire team that was mostly not involved is petty to say the least.

Every second I am in that gym, I feel welcome and secure. I know that I am getting the best training I possibly can and my coaches are focused on me more than anything. The optional and compulsory coaches (these are the coaches I have worked with personally) are extremely kind, but they push each gymnast to be the best they can. Everyone in the sport of gymnastics knows that it is not easy, and a coach cannot be all rainbows and sunshine every day. The coaches at universal make sure that you come first and teaching you is the top of their priority list. On a different subject; the front desk and office staff are incredibly nice and helpful. Every gymnast can always easily be stocked with tape, grips, etc. with their help. As a gymnast, this is by far one of the best gyms you can go to in order to reach your goals and know that you have a ton of people supporting you through thick and thin.

This is a great place for kids to get some exercise, especially in the winter months! I like that…read moremost of the teachers are Ohio State cheerleaders, my kids get so excited to see them on TV come game time. They are great with the kids and I am impressed at how much my kids are learning. It is a little expensive, but most kids lessons are. Their calendar runs with the school year calendar, so it's easy to coordinate with most kids' schedules. They have trampolines, floor mats, a vault, bars, balance beams and everyone's favorite - a foam pit with a trapeze to swing into it.

I have taken my son and daughter to Wendy's Gymnastics year-round for a few years now, so we have…read moreexperienced what they have to offer for 1-year-olds up through age 3 (almost 4). We take classes on a weekday evening, so my review is based on that experience. I've heard weekdays are much less busy. The space is fun, safe, engaging, and appropriate for young children to learn coordination, burn some energy, and practice their listening skills. The entire floor has springs beneath it for safety and they protect metal edges with pads. It's one large room, which accommodates lots of kids at once, creating a fun energy that can also be, at times, chaotic. If your kid feeds on party atmosphere, great. If not...it will be a good lesson for them in learning to cope with more craziness than they're used to. At the start of class, all the kiddos participate in a group warm-up. The tiniest gymnasts (like my little T) do a warm up with songs and a parachute, talking about parts of their body. The older toddlers, preschoolers, and elementary kids experience a more traditional warm-up with jumping, moving, stretching, and a bit of choreography. After that, they break into smaller groups by age and spend 10 minutes at each of 3 stations doing a routine. I can't help but think it's a bit like a dog agility course!! The kids listen and watch their teacher, then go through the paces. The teachers ensure safety and work with the kids through the more challenging obstacles. Part of why we travel across town to Wendy's is that our kids can do an activity at the same time even though they're different ages. It sure beats making 2 trips! The other is the quality equipment. I love the tiny soft balance beams, but also the opportunity they have to experience full-sized official equipment. There are 3 bars, a rope, 2 rings, a large trampoline, a tumble track, a pit of foam blocks, a trapeze, 3 balance beams, a vault, a pommel horse, and much more!

I would NEVER recommend this gym to anyone. So unprofessional, which is sad because there are still a few good coaches there. My daughter, like many others ended up leaving there and going to the new gym and not only enjoys it more but is learning so much more. And the price is better! I can understand them being salty about his opening Future but if they acted more professionally and stepped up their game maybe I would have given a better update.

I can not say enough good things about this new gym. The staff is knowledgeable, friendly and appreciative of both the athlete and the parents as well. It is a refreshing change of pace from where she was going. Far better instruction, not to mention way more FUN for the kids. My daughter is growing so much faster here. No wonder Gabby Douglas picked Christian as her coach. If you are in the market for a great gym check this place out. There is even a gym on site for the parents to use.
