My oldest has been going here since he was very young. He had a lot of energy and really needed a safe, structured place to learn body awareness and how to fall correctly. He started in the toddler classes and has since moved up into the Hero's Academy program. The classes keep his attention, challenge him appropriately, and help him build confidence and coordination. The coaches do a great job engaging the kids while still focusing on proper technique and safety. Scheduling makeup classes is easy, and the pricing is very reasonable compared to similar programs. We've had a great experience and would definitely recommend it to other families. read more

Gymnastics Nevada - The gym from the top level. - Gymnastics Near Me - Sparks, Nevada

Love this place. Both of our girls have been coming to gym classes here at the Gymnastics of Nevada since they were both about 3 years old, but they also have classes available for younger students with their parents. Always busy, well put together and their coaches know what they are doing. They have quite a few different selections of classes to choose from, and it is a great way to get energy out in a positive way for our kiddos without stress. read more

My kids went here for gymnastics and my daughter kind of fell out of love with this gym when her coach left. She moved on to playing sports in her school and my little guy did their toddler class until we switched to Flips. I didn't care for his first coach here, but was easily moved into another class. Everyone including the staff up front were great while my kids were here. The waitlist were a little long and I recommend getting your kiddos on one and routinely checking back. The first time I thought my daughter was placed on one, she wasn't. It's a great place to start and they offer a trial class before committing to pay for the monthly dues and their annual fee. We had schedule conflicts between my kids sports and my son's soccer and swim lessons all in one day was too much for him, so we had to move to a different program all together. I recommend if you want to try. Call them to schedule your trial class. I found the early classes if possible were less crowed then the evenings and weekends. They also offer birthday party packages here. read more

Beautiful facility, classes are spot on with levels, staff and coaches are great thus far. 4 stars only because if you are new, it can be very hectic at the front desk. But once you know where and what you're doing, the instruction is on point, the levels that kids are placed in are great and again the facility is fantastic. Our first day was super chaotic. But beginning of season sign ups are always chaotic anywhere you go. Shout out to Alex, working the front desk, for being patient, kind and even apologetic for not being able to help everyone all at once. Unfortunately our spot to have an evaluation done had been taken but they still accommodated us to the best of their ability. (Again, beginning of sessions are always crazy). I have two sons 5 and 7. Being able to go into a facility and see male coaches and boys/young men extremely talented working hard every time we enter the building is AMAZING! We have only been at Gymnastics Nevada for 4 weeks now and I'm very impressed. We moved from another state and my boys took gymnastics there. The boy level classes didn't get very advance. Hoping my boys stick with it! ***I know other people have had different experiences with Gymnastics Nevada but I will say, the level of athletes they are training, might be something to consider. Could they get better with transitions between classes and new students, yes, but I am for sure going to keep my guys here as long as they want to go. read more

Gymnastics Nevada - Tots area for gymnastics - Gymnastics Near Me - Sparks, Nevada

My son had his first trial class today. He is just shy of 2 years old. Please note, this was my first time having my family come to this gym. When we entered, 3 staff members were talking and didn't realize we were standing at the desk and finally greeted us. One employee showed us to the back to who my son's coach would be. We expected some direction from the staff and coach and there was none. As it came close to my son's session, no one was helping us or making him feel welcome let alone said hi to him. His coach was sitting on a mat talking to a friend and when we approached her she said she was sorry, but she was just told there was a new kid a couple mins ago? Did she forget in a couple mins? The parents were the only helpful people in the damn building and told us where he should be. Because of the staffs lack of attention to new members, my son missed the warm up and became extremely uncomfortable when just a few minutes before that he was talking and laughing with the parents and kids because they were welcoming and said the simple word "hi". The coaches never greeted him. He tried jumping and did it a couple times, but again, the coaches never made an effort to say Hi in the beginning or guide throughout the process of his first day. Maybe it's my 15 years in customer service and sales, but this business model is absolutely terrible. Staff needs to be trained. Especially since paying members and new memberships is what keeps the gym running. read more

After watching my grandson for over 4 months I have noticed the instructors are young and inexperience. My grandson has asked to stop coming as he is not listened to. I have noticed one of the male coaches paying more attention to another female coach than to the children. The baby class and teen classes seem more structured. The front desk staff are often playing around and present unprofessional and the Sparks office manager has quite an attitude. I have been advised that the owner "never" calls parents or has any communication, even for complaints or concerns, with clients. The office manager has said "everything goes through me". They do have a no refund or credit policy, which is absurd as things happen in life. I always pay my tuition early, my grandson has a great gift and cannot commit to too many classes, we had still planned being members for one class, but we were told they never ever do refunds or credits. Because the one gold medalist attended the gym when he was a child, they seem to believe they are above all. This gym has lost all sight of community or common sense and caring. They only pay attention the dollar. Additionally, this gym takes several weeks off during the year and do not prorate or offer other classes, complete lack of community feeling. read more

Very disappointed will be unenrolling my daughter ASAP taking our business else where slimy and sleazy sales approach to signing up Maybe next time you should take sometime and actually reach out to your customers instead of making assumption as to what went down. Good luck read more

From watching my child this evening I can't help but notice the flaws in the coaching my child is receiving. The classes are unstructured and chaotic, from watching I can only see the children running around and not getting the "professional training" I was looking for. For the money I pay I'm am looking for a fun experience that also learns skills such as discipline and the gymnastics events. The coaches teach no such things, the children run about while the coaches just stand there, there is no instruction, learning, or one on one help I can see the older teams receiving. I am not satisfied with my experience here and hope that you can get your gym in a better place in the future. read more

I signed my 4 year old son up for this and gymboree when I noticed his social skills where delayed. At first his teacher was very kind and understanding, she was patient. He was only able to focus for 20 minutes of the 40 minute class but she assured me that was fine (mind you he wasn't disruptive, he'd just sit down and stare off into space) A month went by and she told me he was doing great and even sent home a little postcard telling me how proud she was of him and how much progress he had made. That same week she sent that post card, I had gotten him tested for autism and sure enough, he's on the spectrum, so I informed her of his new diagnosis. Her tolerance for him went out he window. I watched as she seemed hyper focused on everything he was doing wrong. If he didn't do something perfect, she'd grab him and force him to redo it, although I noticed if the other toddlers didnt do it perfect, she'd pay no attention. After class she said that she didn't know if he was a fit for the class but to give it another week, so we did and the following was worse. After he did great for the first 20 minutes, instead of allowing him to sit quietly and watch the class as he had done the previous month, she attempted to force him to hang on the bar, moving his body around and ignoring the rest of the toddlers to hyper focus on him. He ended up crying, which he hardly does. After class, she told me all the kids were making fun of him. I believe they were making fun of him because she was hyper focusing on him and making him a target. Overall, I believe she's an ableist bully. I pulled my son after that. I brought up gymboree due to after I told his gymboree teacher about his autism diagnosis, she said that it didn't matter, that all kids are different and thats what makes them great and she continued to treat my son the exact same way as when he started and he had a great time going there until his 5th birthday (the class was for 3-4 year olds). read more

My friend and I both enrolled our daughters here but when we arrived the coach was a guy. We had signed our girls up for Dianne's class. And when we met him, he walked up to me and stuck out his hand. I assumed to shake mine so I introduced myself and he just said "ok" and took my daughters paperwork from me. No "hi" or introducing himself. Super rude and awkward. We don't think he has ever had to work with two year olds. The instructions were strict and too much for a 2 year old to grasp and follow. When we left we mentioned possibly needing to change time slots because our girls were too tired that early in the day but we told them we would go home and think about it, only for me to get home and login to my parents portal to see my daughter was unenrolled. You're darn right she is staying unenrolled now. Very unprofessional, unfriendly, uninviting, and just a huge disappointment. Oh they also got report cards saying they were too shy and didn't listen to instructions... well dude, they're babies. They're literally 2. They also took the liberty of unenrolling my friends daughter as well when I emailed to unenroll mine. Extremely unprofessional. read more

My kids have pretty much done every program at Gymnastics Nevada: parent and me, tot's, rec, dance, and now team. We've even done birthday parties here. The coaches are a great mix of supportive and challenging, and have always done a wonderful job of meeting my kids where they are. This is a particularly awesome program if you have sons, since they have one of the only boys competitive teams in the area. read more

Gymnastics Nevada - Fantastic training programs for every level and age - Gymnastics Near Me - Sparks, Nevada

I am disappointed with my family's experience here. My toddler attended classes for five months. Within that time, there were five different coaches. While a few of the coaches did well connecting with the students, younger coaches lacked the patience and compassion to teach toddlers. For instance, one coach clearly showed her distain at having to "deal" with my son. Now my child is no angel, he's a toddler. They require patience and at times, behavior correcting. I understand that toddlers can be a challenge, but they are not doing it to be malicious. At the end of class, all the kids sit together to get stamps and stickers. She told him in front of the entire class and very loudly that he was not getting stamps because he did not listen. My child was very quiet on the way home and when we talked about it later, he cried. This is not a self esteem building program. There are better ways to discipline a toddler without damaging his or her ego. The final straw was with, yet another new coach who lacked patience. If she was having the smallest bit of trouble, she would welcome the child to sit with his/her mom. After I watched her public shaming session (stickers and stamps), I was furious to watch the coach state in distain "We're done" to my child and then turn her back on him. Being 3 years old, he didn't understand that she meant that class was done and he didn't leave. She said "We're done" in an even meaner tone and then turned her back on him again. No human deserves to be treated this way. This is unacceptable. I went back the next day to speak to a manager. As I stated my concerns with the company's training methods (not appropriate towards toddlers), she offered to place my son in a class with another coach. While I appreciate the effort, it also felt like she didn't quite understand what I was saying and thought the problem was just my child and not the methods used. The motto stated on the website for this business is: "Building healthy, happy children from the inside out". With the exception of a few coaches that only stayed a few weeks, I did not feel that that was happening here. As of the date of this review, the web page states that they are looking for people to help teach their children's classes and are advertising it with " No experience required ". That is evident. Please train your inexperienced coaches that different age groups of children require different approaches. read more

I have my kids go here with Coach Jill. She is great with the kids. She, like most other coaches here, is always happy to see us with a smile on her face! Unfortunately, I cannot say that for the front desk manager. I do not know her name, as she never greets us or acknowledges our kids. She has been rude and inconsiderate since day one. ---An old lady in the front with resting bitch face syndrome. Would be a great place with a better rating if it wasn't for that woman with her sour, awful personality ! read more

I have a long history with Gymnastics Nevada and a unique perspective as a former Gymnastics Nevada athlete and a former Gymnastics Nevada coach. I have nothing but great things to say about the gym, their program, the owners and the staff. Nearly two decades ago (wow, really?) I started attending Gymnastics Nevada as a budding gymnast. As a young gymnast, I couldn't stay out of the place....I'd have practice four or five times during the week and then beg my parents to take me back for Open Gym on Saturdays. My earliest memories as a young gymnast are of the supportive and friendly environment and culture of Gymnastics Nevada. Some of my earliest and greatest friends were made at Gymnastics Nevada and some of the greatest lessons I've learned...delayed gratification, discipline, self-confidence, respect...we're learned as a gymnast generally and as a Gymnastics Nevada gymnast specifically. There is a genuine sense of community at Gymnastics Nevada...from the owners to the coaches and staff and down to clients and young athletes, the Gymnastics Nevada "community" is a caring and respectful one where the kids come first. Following a successful gymnastics career, I began coaching at Gymnastics Nevada and served as a recreational coach for 4+ years. During my tenure at Gymnastics Nevada I coached boys and girls recreational gymnastics, assisted with team coaching and coached and supervised children's birthday parties. From the other side of the fence, as a former Gymnastics Nevada coach, I can unequivocally say that Gymnastics Nevada runs a solid recreational gymnastics program that I've yet to see replicated in any other gym. The key to the Gymnastics Nevada program is the "Star Program," a color coded program of incremental progression that ensures athletes continue to learn increasingly difficult gymnastics skills in a safe and efficient manner. Upon starting gymnastics lessons, an athlete is assigned to a color level based on the athlete's gymnastics experience and skill level and is given a colored belt (for girls) or colored wristbands (for boys) indicating the athlete's level. For each color level, there are 20 to 30 skills that an athlete must master before moving to the next color level. Each time a new skill is achieved, the athlete earns a star that can be sewn or glued to the athlete's belt or wristbands. There are a few things I like about this program that sets Gymnastics Nevada apart from most other gyms: 1) the Star Program keeps coaches accountable for teaching progression at an appropriate pace. The Star Program strikes the perfect balance between an athlete not learning quickly enough (or at all), resulting in the athlete's parents simply throwing money away month after month, on the one hand, and the athlete recklessly learning difficult and potentially dangerous gymnastics skills before basics have been established, on the other hand. The Star Program ensures that athletes continue to learn each week, but at a structured pace that does not compromise safety. 2) the Star Program ensures that each class is filled with students with similar gymnastics experience and skill level. The Star Program aims to avoid situations where a less skilled student may need significantly more attention or coaching during a lesson at the expense of more advanced students in the class and those situations where an advanced student may be bored if placed in a class of predominantly beginner athletes. 3) the Star Program encourages athletes to remain excited, disciplined and accountable for their progress in the sport. By earning a star each time a skill is mastered, and by displaying each star on the athlete's belt or wristbands, the athlete can take pride in their efforts and learns first hand the results of discipline and dedication....even if sometimes that sense of gratification takes weeks of hard work. While there are several additional features of and benefits to the Star Program, the three above are those I think are most significant and those that really set Gymnastics Nevada apart. I've moved about the country for school and, in doing so, I've coached at a few gyms; while no gym is free from quirks, and each has something to offer, I've never understood why many gyms don't implement a structure like that of the Star Program. Rather, many gyms simply allow individual coaches to teach such skills at such times and in such manner as each coach deems appropriate--without any guidance or structure. I just don't buy into this as an effective and safe way to teach gymnastics. The Star Program is an effective way to ensure the right skills are being taught at the right time and in the right manner so that each athlete continues to progress safely. If I had to choose one reason to start my kid at Gymnastics Nevada, the Star Program would be it. It just works. Gymnastics Nevada is a fantastic "community" and, more importantly I think, runs a really solid program. read more

If I were to rate this gym a year ago, the rating would be higher. My child has been attending for two years but we are leaving this month and moving to another gymnastics center. My child's class had four different instructors over the last five months causing a lot of lost training time while every instructor reassessed the skill level in the class. The class size was also increased from a maximum of five to eight, which doesn't allow for time to actually coach - the children just run a circuit and hope to develop technique from watching the instructor complete the circuit once. Last month, I could hear the latest instructor screaming at the class from across the gym, "I don't want to hear anyone talking again! No talking!", then she walked away for a couple minutes. My child is going to a new gym where the coaches pay attention to their class, not lose it in front of the class. It's clear the owners are occupied with their other high profile financial opportunities and the gym has noticeably suffered. read more

Super disappointing!!!!! Called this location to inquire about enrolling my daughter into a class. I was up front that I was driving over an hour, she was 2 months away from being 3, have tried parent/child classes and classes with her alone and she was better without me. After info about a few classes and waitlist and explaining the classes were ON GOING, they set me up in a 3-5y old trial class. When I arrived for the trial, I check in and gave all information. After about 10 minutes they realized again she was not 3 yet. I explained my situation again, they checked me in, set me up with a parent portal, and showed us where we wait for the class. After about 5 minutes waiting...FD staff found us and told us we couldn't take he class because they have a strict age policy. The coach then approached and said this class had been working on routine for a show and would not be a good fit. Now I have no problem with them having a strict age policy OR if this class has been working on routines and not a good fit however when I call be more knowledgeable and waste my time coming in THEN check me in, get my daughter SUPER excited, then tell her she CAN'T. I have been involved in the gymnastics/dance world for a long time and this customer service was the worst! read more

I love this place! I have been here with my daughter 4 times now and this place is clean and coach erin is the best! I have never met or seen such an enthusiastic coach that actually teaches the kids . I've been to other gymnastics and nothing compared to the tots learning at gym Nevada. I will be bringing my daughter here for awhile! read more

My son attends the Wiggle Worms class(baby-walking) and he always has a blast. The coach is extremely friendly and knows all of the kids that are in class and knows what they need to work on. The coach always makes it a point to change up the circuit but keeps what she knows the kids really enjoy! I've already noticed my son gaining so many skills! I'm so thankful for this class. read more

**update of my review** Denise from gymnastics Nevada reached out to me today. She was extremely nice, and seemed genuinely concerned about the issues I listed. I was not at all expecting a refund, but she was kind enough to give us a refund for the last month we had paid for, and it is greatly appreciated. It seems like she wants to understand the issues happening so she can better the gym, and that is really nice to see. Pretty disappointed with our experience here. When you're paying $68 a month, most would expect their children to actually learn something. But in the 4 months my daughter went here, she learned absolutely nothing. That price is a little steep when your child is basically just playing around for 4 hours a month. It seems like the "coaches" don't focus on all of the kids equally. They only focus on the kids who are experienced, and know what they're doing. I would sit in the bleachers, and watch my daughter struggle with several different things, she's 6 and had obviously never done most of that stuff before, and no one would say anything to her, or help her, or show her the way to do it. We had paid through the month of February, but at the end of January, my daughter begged me to not go anymore. Apparently at her last couple of classes, the new coach she had was saying things like, "when are you ever going to understand how to do this" to her, and she didn't want to keep going. When letting the front desk know that we would no longer be coming there, they asked why and I expressed all of these concerns. There was nothing said after that. So they ask only because they have to I'm sure, and not because they actually care why you're leaving, or care to make any changes to keep you coming back. read more

We've been at Gymnastics Nevada for about a year and a half now and it was a breath of fresh air when we moved to Reno. Ashley, Makenna, and Erin made my daughter welcome from the very beginning and was made to feel at home. Since coming to the gym I have seen my daughter's love of gymnastics be renewed and her excel. Denise has been a invaluable source of information when it has come to dealing with injuries. We will never go to another gym because this gym is the best! read more

Great staff and very flexable for class schedules for families.

HORRIBLE! Do not bring your boys here. This is clearly a pretty-princess party room, not a compentent gymnastics center. My son has been treated terribly by his instructor for the last two months. It's too bad because my son loves gymnsastics but has started to give up on his class because of his instructors negativity. I keep hoping they switch instructors around, but I guess we will move on to High Sierra Gymnastics. read more

My family loves this gym. We have been going here for over 4 years with two of my kids starting in the parent and me class and one doing competition team now.
