My daughters have been at Champions for 4 years and are now part of the EPIC Elite Cheer program…read more I asked my girls to describe the program, and one said that "The coaches make us work very hard, but they make it fun." The coaches are positive and focus on safety, and there is a sense of mutual respect between coaches and athletes. There are a lot of optional extra classes in tumbling, flexibility, jumps, and stunting; my girls would go to the gym every day if I let them. The community at EPIC Elite is great - there are fun, positive parents which makes team bonding events a pleasure, as opposed to a chore. Why 4 stars instead of 5? The new program started at the beginning of the summer, so I'll update when we're a little further into the year. As a new program, some of the processes and communication are still being ironed out, but the pros far outweigh the growing pains.

If you're looking for an amazing summer camp, I can't recommend Electric Avenue Camps enough! My…read morekids have attended several different camps around town, and this has been their absolute favorite. Every single day they came home excited to tell me about what they did and couldn't wait to go back the next morning. The activities are creative, engaging, and so much fun, and it's obvious that so much thought goes into every day. The owner is incredible. She works so hard to create a camp where every child feels welcome, included, and excited to be there. You can truly tell how much she cares about the kids and their experience. It's rare to find a camp that is this well run while still feeling so personal. We will absolutely be back!

This kid has come home almost everyday telling us what happened that day and it's very disheartening that she is avoiding doing anything about it and letting it continue. I hope something will actually get done about this. I like the owners very much, so it's disappointing seeing one person bring the place down.

When looking for a tumbling gym that was local when we moved to town, the first one I found was…read moreLonestar Spirit Academy and I am so thankful! It has been a huge blessing for my daughter. She is in multiple classes throughout the week as well as their All Star Cheer program. She absolutely adores all her coaches, and has made so many new friends! She has shown great improvement since starting tumbling here. The coaches want what is best for the kids at Lonestar, but also make the classes fun and inviting and are all so kind to each other, to the parents and to the kids. It really is a great place to be! My daughter also had a BLAST at their parents night out event they just held, and she can't wait for the next event!

The gym is nice and open, and it is a safe space for toddlers to learn to trust their bodies. Falling down here is less dramatic- almost every surface is soft and padded. The class is a little more structured but it's sort of a "here's the skill and activity" and then we do it in a rotation. The open play is a little more chaos BUT the kids love self led play. I like both!

Our 5-year old kiddo likes the weekly parkour classes. He really enjoys the various activities and…read more"obstacle" courses he's presented with. There's a large ramp wall that challenged him, but he worked at it weekly and can climb it not without any issues. This gave him a great sense of accomplishment. The core staff are great. They get to know the kids and work with them closely. Even larger groups are supervised well. Our kiddo did well here. Give them a try and see if your kiddo enjoys it. I'm thinking they will!

If you care about the wellbeing of your child or children stay clear of this gym. If you advocate…read morefor your child, stay clear of this gym. If you want your children spending long periods of time in an unhealthy training environment with a head coach "god complex" ego, then look no further.  I cannot speak for Crenshaws after school program, camps, or palestra program, but if you're looking for an Optional or Compulsories training program here's my honest review.  We first started noticing issues with the constant change in coaching staff. In the last three years we've seen 2-3 coach changes. The latest newest edition being the worst. They bark orders at the girls and offer put downs when there is no delivery. My daughter felt this coaching style began to rub off on the other coaches. We were met with many meltdowns after training due to this specific coach. Hysterical crying and shaking. If you directed concerns to the head coach your child would be blamed for bringing this response on. We noticed over our tenor here that our daughter was scared and intimidated to communicate. Not to us as parents but to the coaching staff. She feared retaliation from her coaches. If she was interested in attending a gymnastics college summer camp with her peers, they would all be terrified to to mention it due to how the coaches would respond. Of course, you'd think attending a college gymnastics camp would be encouraged - it's not. If my daughter suffered an injury, she did not want to mention it to her coaches, scared of how they would treat her or push her to train on the pain. If my child was running late to practice, she was terrified to communicate her occurrence. This all goes against USAG Safe Sport Policy.  This gym says "family" is their mantra but that's a lie. It's the head coach's idea of family. He feels he owns your kids once they join the team. He acts as their father, at least what he thinks is a father. It's by far the unhealthiest part of this facility. He cancels parents and does not allow parents inside the gym. There are no windows to observe your children, there are no seats or seating within the gymnasium that welcome parents to watch practice to ensure your child's safety. You're told you're welcome to pull up a chair when you first join but this is not true. Most parents when we ask questions are met with snarky comments, attitude, pettiness, unprofessional responses, or no response at all. This is no way to conduct business. Your kids are bred to have their own communication with the coach that does not pertain to you. This means if your kid suffers from anxiety or depression, it will only worsen because the head coach does not want you as an adult to protect the child and speak adult to adult. Coach to parent. I'm all for children learning to communicate and advocate for themselves in a healthy manner but this is not that.  He's most comfortable texting your youth or adolescents. He rather hear from your kid how they cannot attend practice because you as a parent have a conflict, planned a family vacation, or other plans etc, so he can punish your child for your decisions or hold them accountable for something that does not pertain to them. This is just a toxic form of control. Over our time here we met with the head coach,Adam Miller, numerous times to discuss our concerns or issues as concerned parents. Each discussion showed more and more how he does not like to take ownership for his wrong doings. He would constantly point fingers at the children. During each discussion instead of being met with concern or willingness to change, we were met with communication that said, "Maybe this isn't the gym for you all". We were always told in so little words to just get out and our daughter was indispensable. This is not a family.  Our daughter was always pulled to the side and addressed about various things without our knowledge. She's 14 and unable to comprehend all conversations yet the coaching staff assumed or assumes these young gymnasts are adults, they're not. Every conversation she had without an adult present bred toxicity. She was being bullied, coerced, and always accused of wrongdoing. She was left feeling isolated and alone. All parts of their toxic control they like to flex.  In the end, I had to ask my daughter if this were a relationship would you stay? She told me no. I asked why, and she said because she's constantly manipulated, always accused that everything is her fault, and voiceless.  Overall, the head coach is unwilling to welcome healthy change. He rather continue with the same traditions that have led to years of gymnastics, toxic culture and adolescent abuse.  If you want to feel targeted and enjoy being disrespected, this is a place for you.  I would not recommend this gym to anyone.
