We attended this gym for six years, starting when my daughter was 4 and leaving now at age 10. We…read morestayed because she loved gymnastics, but over time it became clear that the environment and particularly the ownership was not supportive or child-centered. Classes were often overcrowded, with kids spending a lot of time waiting for turns and showing limited skill progression. More concerning was the lack of kindness and flexibility from the owner. On one occasion, my daughter was excluded from picture day because I missed an email about a required leotard, resulting in unnecessary tears rather than a simple solution or communication. In another instance, when I missed emails about a competition and asked for guidance, the response was screenshots of emails no support or empathy. I fully acknowledge missing the emails and did not ask or demand anything special but when working with children, there should be a baseline of care, inclusion, and understanding. Unfortunately, that has been lacking. We've chosen to take our business elsewhere to a program that prioritizes kindness, growth, and the emotional well-being of kids, not just rigid rules and transactions. Remember there are other gyms and this doesn't have to be the only choice or acceptable anymore!

The only con is there isn't a viewing area inside. Instead they have windows outside that you can peer into or watch from their firewalled security camera app. It works but would be great to reinforce parents being there in an audience for the kids. Overall, the location is huge with many programs. The staff is always friendly. We recommend checking this place out.

This place is unmonitored and such a devastating loss of a safe resource for kids who are there for the right reasons. Frederick Douglass would be horribly disappointed in these youth. Arrogant, acting a fool, completely missing the point of the theme, and an awful and embarrassing representation of Loudoun County. They were belligerent, swearing, and acting a fool in front of young children. Way to go "parents." It makes me ill thinking of the lack of civic knowledge amongst these kids. Blatantly stomping on hard earned tax payer dollars with this once fabulous community resource. What an absolute shame. I will never go back and never take a class here either.

There was a lot of waiting-in-line-for-your-turn (didn't experience this at G-Force, Stingrays) and it often felt like the instructor was more interested in chatting with the students and getting them to laugh at his jokes vs teaching them skills. Some staff - high school students - were clearly not ready to be instructors. Jess is fantastic and my child learned a lot from her, but one teacher cannot an entire tumbling program make and we couldn't always get into her classes. We ended up moving to a program with a greater number of strong instructors who focused on clean form and consistent progression. There are better options in Ashburn.

The staff is always nice and caring. I see people have issues with refunds, but that's a reflection on them not reading the terms before paying, not the Fitwize staff. Always read the fine print when you sign up for things. Deposits are deposits for a reason and those usually cannot be refunded.

When we first enrolled our daughter at one year old we were focused on the nurturing and loving environment, and we found just that and more at the Goddard School. As our daughter moved to the preschool and pre-k we realized our need for private kindergarten. We discovered that the Goddard School is the only accredited school in the area. This adds to all the amazing academics that made us continue to choose Goddard Schools over daycares in the area. We love that we have seen the consistency in the staff, many of them have been here since before we started three years ago. We highly recommend the Goddard School of Leesburg.

When Kiddie Academy closed due to landlord issues, we followed Hasna and her team without any hesitation. During the transition, I met with Madhu (owner) a few times and she was welcoming, understanding, and compassionate about the abrupt changes. My daughter is in the Panda class with Shannon and Gana. Shannon is one of the warmest souls I've met. Gana, who was part of the KA staff, cares for my daughter in such a way that my L recognizes it, and always goes to her at drop off, and is sitting on her lap at pick up! There is a strong emphasis on learning- but learning through play. Physical movement, art skills, sharing, books, dramatic play. I'm at such great peace leaving my daughter in the care of this wonderful staff!

It depends on if you're from Leesburg, or from another town on how much the daily fee is. Their locker rooms are super clean, featuring plenty of showers, bathrooms and lockers. The Ida Lee Park Recreation Center is really nice. There's so much they offer for your growing child to keep them active!

They have a sectioned off dodge ball area, basketball area, and diving board-esque area. They had a number of birthday parties going and I could see this being a good activity especially on quieter days or if you rented out the place. We went on a Saturday evening and it was chaotic to say the least and at times I worried for other kids out there (we kept our 5 year old close). Since areas were not sectioned off by age, it was a bit of a free for all with older kids chasing each other and bouncing each other or doing flips without always being mindful of their surroundings. While a lot of the kids seemed to be having a great time, we did see a few younger kids get hurt. Again, this can be a good activity as long as you are mindful of the timing, able to navigate the chaos during the busier times, and are mindful of surroundings.
