She has learned and grown so much and we are grateful to her coaching staff who show up tirelessly for these young athletes every day and make it both FUN, memorable, and challenging as they cultivate these young girls into strong young athletes.

Beware! Bullying and harassment! This review is regarding…read morethe competitive side. -3 bully girls on my child's team shoved the other 4 girls daily, smacked other athletes in the face & head, punched my child in the stomach, repeatedly put their fingers in her face & bossed her around. They annoyed, bullied, harassed & threw equipment at her & others. They also rolled around & laid on mats in others stations so the girls who actually wanted to train couldn't. The bullies are there for free play time & to harass & annoy others, not gymnastics. The only coach that addressed the issue is no longer employed @the gym. How these girls are on team is a mystery to me. -my child's coaches didn't correct form until the season was over. They also barked orders that the girls didn't understand & neglected to explain. -office staff is rude & speak disparagingly about parents & coaches. -don't ask for a meeting to discuss issues, you'll be ignored. -the gym owner checked out of his business for a solid year. -they don't respect safe sport policies. They defy the policies when they allow bullying & harassment. They ignored policies when they attempted to silence me out of discussing my concerns. They defied the policies when they retaliated against my child & myself by ejecting her from the program for her mom expressing concerns regarding the bullying & asking for resolution. -they drastically changed our schedule 3 times last year with no regard for our personal lives. -the bully girls, despite their conduct, treatment of others & poor scores at competition were still moved up, leaving the good athletes who are well behaved & actually want to train to deal with their harassment another year. This caused endeavor to lose several amazing athletes. -I provided the gym owner the dates, times & station where bullying took place so he could pull camera footage, I was ignored. If I wanted my daughter to have free play time & be annoyed by kids with bad behavior I would take her to the park & save my money. I paid $375/ mo for my daughter to learn gymnastics, not for her spirit to be broken & walk out of the gym crying, expressing that she no longer loved gymnastics & wanted a new gym. I'm happy for the parents whose children were fortunate enough to land on a supportive team w/ a coach that corrects negative behavior but we didn't get that. Endeavor coaches had no problem sending my child off the floor for crying (which I support) but wouldn't send bullies off the floor for physically assaulting teammates. I guess my money wasn't as green as theirs. That is a lot of money to spend for a great portion of the classes being the bullies shoving athletes to the back of the line, instigating arguments, fighting for front of the line just to throw their hair around in my daughters face to irritate her, or stand on a block holding up the line because they don't know what to do because they don't listen to the coaches. The bullies had bad attitudes, throwing a fit if they were asked to take a picture or if a teammate tried to hug them. It's impossible to thrive in such an environment. One of the bullies annoyed my daughter on the sidelines at a competition, on her back poking her, causing her to trip going into her tumbling pass, two coaches stood there and did nothing, yet my daughter is expected to perform well. My daughter has since trialed several gyms & was welcomed into environments with supportive, friendly, encouraging teammates and I watched in amazement as I saw my once confident athlete return to her prior glory. It's amazing how the environment plays a role in how an athlete performs. We're now fixing what endeavor broke in my daughter: her spirit. Thank you, endeavor, for showing us what a gym should not be. Pretty sad when your greatest asset is air conditioning. Going back I wish I would have recorded all the times the girls put their fingers in my daughters face, shook their hair in her face to irritate her, punched her in the stomach, threw things at her, yelled at her, etc. This is a healthy training environment? What a joke! This is embarrassing & frankly insulting that they placed my daughter & other strong athletes in a group with such nonsense. If the bullies spent as much time working on skills as they did fighting to be 1st in line they might actually be successful. Be forewarned, if you come here & happen to get a good group then good for you, but if you end up in a group like this they will do absolutely nothing to resolve it. *edited to add that yelp wont allow me to post the video of 1 of the bullies smacking a teammate in the face but im happy to provide it to anyone interested. Of course endeavor would want my videos of negative behavior removed. I hope the bullies &their parents are embarrassed. I hope they remember that while their disgusting behavior ruined my child's experience, she continued to cheer for & celebrate them. You can try to silence me, endeavor, but just like at competition, you'll fail.

Also, my son is completing his first year on comp teams, after taking 2 years of rec hip-hop classes. The progress he's made this year is remarkable.

I've found a much better program for both of my boys, you should too.

We have absolutely loved our experience here! My son is 18 months old now and started swim lessons…read morewhen he was 16 months. We have a pool at home, so learning water safety was a huge priority for our family. Looking back, I only wish we had started even sooner. The progress he has made in just a couple of months has been incredible. He can float better than most adults I know, and he's already learned how to roll over onto his back and float if he falls into the water. Watching him develop these lifesaving skills has given us so much more confidence around the pool. Like many toddlers, he still cries during some lessons and reaches for me, especially when he's learning a new skill. But I've come to realize that's because he's being challenged, and growth isn't always comfortable. Once he mastered floating, he actually stopped crying for several lessons. Now that he's working on a new skill, the tears have returned a bit which is completely normal. Kris is patient, encouraging, and always makes sure he is safe while helping him build confidence. I truly appreciate how focused the program is on real water safety, not just having fun in the pool. Seeing what my son is capable of at only 18 months old has been amazing. I would highly recommend these lessons to any parent, especially if you have a pool or spend time around water. It's one of the best investments we've made for our son's safety.

While Kris and her team are passionate about swim instruction, I came here to say that I think it…read moreis INCREDIBLY important that anyone seeking to take lessons here with a young child, say under 3, understands that Kris uses ISR training. PLEASE PLEASE research for yourself whether ISR is right for you and your child. (After my own research and consultation with numerous other swim experts- literally a drowning expert witness- it is NOT as safe as FVSA or other ISR experts will claim it is). Personally-- it was not for me or my child. It was traumatic for her, caused MORE fear of the water than she originally had, and she took in too much water and puked during 3 separate lessons and Kris brushed it off as normal (and I soon was assured by NUMEROUS swim coaches and medical professionals that it is NOT). When I expressed concerns, I DO appreciate that Kris seemed receptive, however, her teaching style is just not compatible with how I want my daughter handled. I wish this were different because I do think Kris is a passionate, very good person and maybe this teaching style works for some, and potentially for older children. But if you are starting with a child under 3, please beware that it is difficult to watch and in MY opinion after a LOT of research, does not provide the long term safety alleged by ISR advocates.

I honestly can't say enough good things about Kate. She is possibly one of the kindest, most loving…read morepeople I have ever met. She choreographed my husband and my first dance for our wedding, and it was awesome. She was so patient and calm, even when I wasn't. I was constantly reassured, and it made the experience so much fun. She taught us the steps, which was great, but even more importantly she gave us confidence in our abilities. On the day of our wedding, my bustle was having all sorts of problems, so we had to cut a big move out of our dance. I thought about what she would tell me to do, and it went off without a hitch! I'm so grateful to Kate not only for making our dance special, but also for allowing us to goof off and have a great time during rehearsals!

I remembered a brochure given to me from a bridal show, and went digging for it. After contacting Kate, I somewhat nervous about our first lesson, but Kate made it so fun and easy to learn the steps, and I was very shocked that she choreographed our dance, both partners' steps, before each class and could remember and teach them back so effortlessly. She has a warm up before each lesson, then breaks down each and every step. Plus, she posts your dance lesson for you to watch again and practice on your own. The dance steps went with our music went perfectly, and I couldn't imagine not having had a choreographed dance for our first dance as husband and wife. To top it off, my father and I went to see Kate too, to practice a father-daughter dance since my dad had multiple knee surgeries and trouble moving quick-steps to music. Kate is the whole package- along with her brother, they slowed down Temptation's "My Girl", quite a bit, but you would NEVER notice. Oh, and did I mention Kate is like, the WHOLE package?? She worked with my wedding planner, DJ, and venue coordinator to practice in our venue before the wedding. She was there on our wedding day! She taped up the front of my dress so I wouldn't step on it, and ran through our dance before we took the floor. I did not expect all of Kate's services with her price. I can't thank you enough, Kate, you made our first dance absolutely PERFECT.
