My daughter Penny has absolutely loved her time here, but what has meant the most to me is watching how much her confidence has grown. She became more comfortable trying new things, more independent, and more confident in herself. As her Papai, getting to watch that kind of growth in her has been pretty incredible. The instructors are amazing. You can tell they genuinely care about the kids, and they have a way of making every child feel comfortable, included, and proud of themselves. It never felt like Penny was just another kid in a class. They knew her, encouraged her, and made her excited to come back. The camps were just as awesome. Penny looked forward to going, came home happy, and was always excited to tell me about what they did that day. Knowing she was somewhere she felt safe, had fun, and was surrounded by people who truly cared about her meant a lot to me. Unfortunately, Penny is back in school in Charlotte, so we won't be able to continue during the school year, but we will absolutely be back for summer camps. To everyone at The Little Gym of Asheville, thank you for everything you've done for Penny. The confidence you helped build in her is something she gets to take with her long after she leaves the gym, and as her Papai, I'm incredibly grateful for that.

I signed up my child for the Little Ninjas class, which is for toddlers. Evidently they think that…read moretoddlers don't need proper coaches because we got coaches who clearly don't know what they're doing. The main coach was MODERATELY better than the second coach and seemed to find his footing as he bumbled along, so I won't name him here. He was young and obviously inexperienced, but there was some improvement by the end. That being said, he would present the course as he wanted them to move through it, then stand in one place and help them only through that one portion. This is unreasonable. A coach should move around and help the kids on all the parts as much as possible. There were kids who were clearly uncomfortable and/or unable to do other portions of the obstacle course, but this was ignored. The second kid, "Coach" Jonathan, couldn't have been more than 17 years old. He didn't do A.N.Y.T.H.I.N.G. He went to a portion of the obstacle course, told the kids to go on it, stood there and "helped" them through that small portion while ignoring them otherwise. He did not try to correct their behavior in any way and even laughed when they were acting inappropriately. I don't feel that my child gained any skills here or received any amount of guidance, and I would not recommend the Little Ninjas class to anyone on that basis.

This place is cute. The lady who had the birthday party said this was the only Gym/Ninja place in…read morethe area. The whole place was reserved for the party. All the kids were jumping, tumbling, going through the courses rolling, climbing. A lot of them seemed to enjoy the pits of blocks. There are two. Even the adults had some fun, climbing the ropes, jumping in the pits. You do have to take your shoes off so bring socks. There is a waiting area for adults and/or kids to sit. There was an extremely small area where the food was with a table for adults and a table for kids to eat. I would say around 12 adults and maybe 6-8 kids could fit comfortably in the eating area. However the space to play is huge. 20 or more kids with their parents and guardians could easily run around the area without getting in each other's way. Parking is small. On the weekend it looks like you can park in front of Pottery Market and Microtech Knives even though those spaces have reserved signs. I don't know how much the parents paid for the party. But they had two hours of play I believe but it looks like they had the facility for 2 1/2 to 3 hours. No one is directing or anything, it's like a free for all... meaning the hosts control when the kid's play, eat food, cake, etc. Someone from the gym was walking around. He was friendly, especially when showing kids how to use equipment and making sure they are using it right. It's worth checking out for parties. I know my kids are going to be exhausted tonight. Definitely will consider this in my area for my daughters 5th birthday party.

Well, my friend and I had a girl weekend in Asheville and tried a few fun workouts while we were in…read moretown. My girlfriend has been an aerialist for 4-5 years now and I've only taken one class before but we knew we'd love it. I figured if I couldn't manage any of the moves well, at least I could provide comic relief, right? The other young lady in our group was an Asheville local who just started lessons a month and a half ago, so between us there were many skill levels represented. Being a compact space, there are only four silk stations available so we had the privilege of watching the instructor on a set of silks as well. Carly lead us through a stretching warm up before we practiced with the silks. When Carly saw what we were able to manage she would add to it, varying the tasks for each of us as we all had wildly different strengths and weaknesses. The music was fun, Carly was patient and had wonderful verbal cues as well as demonstrating for me when the verbal clues left me scratching my head. I wish I lived closer and could build my upper body strength and enjoy this unique workout more often. It was hard and fun and two days later my shoulders and back are still sore but I'd go back tomorrow if I could! Now, where is my Cirque du Soleil contract???

Um. I love this place. If I had the power to teleport, you better believe this is one of the places…read moreI'd hit up very, very frequently! (As often as my bruised limbs could allow. The lyra really digs into you, but what doesn't kill you makes you stronger, and doubling up on fabric would probably also be pretty helpful. I'd been itching to take either a pole class or an aerial silks/lyra class for ages, and since I plan my travels around food and awesome fitness classes (priorities, right?), I definitely had to make a stop here before leaving Asheville! I called beforehand to make sure that it was okay for me to take the aerial lyra class, and the lady I spoke to was really helpful and friendly. (I'd only taken one class before, and that was quite unfortunately back in early 2012, so uh...it's been a while!) ...But my goodness, this was a super fun class! Evan was our instructor, and there was only one other student, so we started the class off with a light warmup, and then jumped right in. Evan was really good about explaining everything, and also in evaluating where we were at so that he could tailor the class to our level. We took turns going through a sequence and learning how to clean it up and make it look pretty + fluid. He was also really great about giving us pointers and cues, which was definitely helpful when we were puzzling out a couple of the moves. All in all, super super fun, and I really hope to come back to Asheville at some point again to visit, and so I can take more classes here! The handbalancing class that Evan teaches looks like a lot of fun, and I'd love to take more aerial lyra (+ silks!) classes!

We were here to observe our Granddaughter's class. The facility is clean although it has that…read moretypical "gym aroma." The classes are very small and there are several classes occurring simultaneously. The gym is large enough to accommodate all this activity without overlapping into other instructional areas. Some classes were as few as 3 gymnasts, so the teacher to pupil ratio is excellent. The instructors exhibited perceptive patience, seeming to fully understand the children's unease in various situations. Our Granddaughter loves training here and we've found that the program is more rigorous than the one she attended in Greenville. Even so, she really enjoys the program and looks forward eagerly to class each week.
