My daughter began attending Crystal last year and it's been a fantastic experience for her…read more In general I've been impressed by a few different things: 1) The discipline instilled in the girls. Sophia and Anastasia do an excellent job motivating them to work hard, focus, and do their best. (To the extent possible with 4-12 year old kids.) 2) I've seen a huge improvement in my daughter's gymnastics skills and abilities. It's like night and day since last year. Moreover, my daughter is motivated and excited to be a part of the program, and has developed a love of the sport that she's never really shown for anything else to the same degree. 3) This is the most important thing: Crystal does an excellent job creating a sense of community and camraderie amongst the kids. My daughter has made several new close friends, and it's very clear every time I go there how caring, supportive, and respectful the girls are with one another. That's the best lesson of all.

I hate giving a local business a ONE star review, but if I could I would have given ZERO!!!!…read more Let's start with saying that this place is dirty and has mold everywhere. I wonder when this company actually got their business license and if the city knows what goes on in there. Most of their coaches look miserable and constantly on their phones. They ask for your credit card info to have on file and will overcharge your card. The owner (Joel) and his manager Natalie are very rude and really don't know what actually happens in their business. Please save yourself and your child from this place and stay away.

As he grew, he became a bit hesitant with the more advanced skills, but we love how strong and coordinated it made him. He does other sports and we can see the impact that the gymnastics foundation has given him. He's now doing the Ninja class with Coach Jacob--and he loves it! He was unsure at first, but Coach Jacob made it such a fun and positive experience. They are learning a lot of really cool tricks. Highly recommend Victory and especially Coach Jacob!

Yelp removed my previous post about this incident before contacting me to verify that this was a real review. I have the hospital bills to prove it was real but of course the studio makes you sign a waiver so no recourse. Think twice before you send your kid her for classes.

The coach was terrible... he didn't introduce him to any of the other kids, didn't do anything to make him feel comfortable, didn't explain any basics... just started a dodge ball activity. After a few minutes my child ran out crying, clearly feeling super uncomfortable with the the entire situation. In the past my son has taken gymnastics from Monarchs and had a great coach and a great experience. So, today was extremely disappointing.

We have a secret nickname for him, "High School Musical", because he fully feels like he should be starting in "The Descendents" or something lol!! Thank you Coach Asher!!

Unfortunately I wanted to love this camp but things took a turn for the worst on the last day of my…read moredaughter attending this camp. Before I get in to that - the general improvement would be to : Send out an email introducing you to all staff and counselors, as well as a daily or even every other day general idea of what activities took place that day. You will not meet anyone. On the first day of camp a counselor comes to your car and gets your child, that is as much interaction as you get with staff. Their parking instruction email is more in depth than any other piece of information you will receive regarding your child. Which brings me to the parking situation. On the last day, my daughter excitingly (attempting to) get out of our vehicle with a smile on her face and a few bestie gift bags in hand was met by a smiling Counsler ready to help assist. My child lock was stuck and so I had to manually lift the lock and help, but while doing this, Deborah Turobiner came up anxiously and loudly saying "WE HAVE TO KEEP THIS LINE MOVING" very condescendingly and aggressively whisking my child away (along with a few other snooty remarks). I contemplated turning around and getting my child but knew how excited she was for the last day. I decided I would write an email to the director acknowledging my appreciation for Deborahs dedication to ensuring everyone get to camp safely.. but that she could go about it with a better attitude .. A few hours later, I received a phone call from a counselor that "my daughter was in the art class decorating glasses and her own glasses have gone missing". I then got a call from the director "your daughter was changing for a fashion show and put her glasses in her pocket" (nice - putting it all back on the 7 year old" Days and days go by (I said I would give it a week for them to find them until I would seek compensation" these are medically necessary glasses.. my daughter has very weak eyes that cross without them) They claimed they found them! Woohoo! I head over pick them up only to pull off, have my daughter put them on to say "these aren't mine mom" I pull over. Same color glasses.. different brand and smaller. I sent a receipt showing how much I had paid for the glasses a WEEK prior but the director had the audacity to say it wasn't an itemized copy. As if I would LIE about the cost of the frames. It wasn't until I posted on social media that I got a response saying this situation would be handled. Parents ask yourself this: If a business who is responsible for children could lack accountability for weeks over.. glasses.. would you trust them with more serious situations. Any rebuttal to this review would just go to show they have a very difficult time taking swift action and accountability.

My kids have been going to Art Camp for seven years!! Every year they ask to attend more weeks…read more Before and after Covid, and even through it virtually, my kids have enjoyed so many activities from cooking, science, magic, games, theater, and so many more. They come home each day tired and full of stories about their day. The Art Camp owner and directors make sure each kid has a place to find their fun during their week(s) at camp. This camp has become an automatic part of our family's summer plans and often winter/spring breaks as well. I highly recommend Art Camp- as I always tell people, it's not just art!!!

Extremely Disappointed - Do Not Send Your Kids Here…read more My son attended Camp Keystone last summer and loved it, so we were excited for him to return. Unfortunately, this year has been a completely different--and deeply upsetting--experience. At pickup, my 6-year-old was in tears and told me that a 13-year-old Counselor in Training yelled at him that he was "tired of him" and then threw him to the ground. Yes, my son had thrown a piece of chalk--something we've addressed and made clear was wrong--but the violent and aggressive response from an older child in a leadership role is completely unacceptable. Worse, there was no adult supervision when this happened, and no camp staff informed us. We only found out from our son. When I contacted the camp, they minimized the incident and failed to take any real accountability. The 13-year-old was not dismissed, and in fact, is being allowed to remain in the Counselor in Training program and return next summer to supervise other children. The camp's own Code of Conduct says it will not tolerate violence--but they are clearly not following through. This was not just a kid-to-kid disagreement. This was a teenager in a position of responsibility physically assaulting a child half his age. If Camp Keystone does not take this seriously, parents should. I can no longer recommend this camp to anyone. There is a complete lack of oversight, accountability, and concern for camper safety. We will not be returning, and I urge other parents to think twice before sending their children here.

My son has attended Kids in Motion summer camp for 5 years. He's a fifth grader now and already…read morethe thing he is most excited about is attending Coach Russell's camp with his friends! He is counting the years until he will be eligible to be a CIT. When I asked my son why he likes Coach Russell and Kids in Motion so much he said "it is the best camp because there is something for everyone and everyone is included. If you like sports and games there are lots to play. If you want to do art or trading cards you can also do those activities." While my son didn't use the word inclusive, I think what he was getting at and what I have seen is that Coach Russell and his exceptional staff create such a sense of inclusivity, of excitement and of belonging among their campers and within the community. Other things my son (and I!) love about camp--there's a super great variety of activities each day including water slides and other fun adventures. Kids are grouped very thoughtfully by age/grade level into groups so there's not a big range of ages. It feels very safe and secure to me as a parent but kids also get a chance to meet other kids who are similar in terms of age. We always run into Coach Russell camp campers around town after the summer is over! On a more practical note, Coach Russell is also extremely responsive to email, extremely organized and great at communication! If you're looking for a day camp opportunity in the Conejo Valley Kids in Motion is just the best!
