They have incorporated many distancing protocols. While no gym environment is perfect they do a great job with their response to COVID both for the athletes and the parents.

I am visiting from bay area and took my kids here with my friend who lives in the area. This place…read moreis fun for kids but customer service is one of the worst I have experienced. The lady who is "in charge" during drop in play has terrible attitude even towards my kids. I came here a few times and I can even say that she is racist, which is terrible and unacceptable.

The instructor did an amazing job rotating through activities around the gym -- trampoline, foam pit, dodge ball, tag, ending on the much anticipated ninja course. He struck a really good balance of keeping things fun, while also keeping the boys in check to not get too wild. The private party room was excellent as well. It's a really great balcony setup to observe for the parents that stayed to watch. The helpers in the party room did a great job of keeping the flow (setting up tables, bringing out cake, cleaning up, etc). I really recommend this place for a birthday party. It was a really well run and a great unique birthday event.

I was disappointed with our recent experience here during a bday party. While I understand that…read moregymnastics involves physical activity, I felt the instructors were not as careful as they should be, especially considering the young age of the participants. It was kindergarten party, so 5+ year olds. The level was not suitable for kindergarten children, who need extra guidance and a gentler introduction to gymnastics. Unfortunately, my child was injured during a session, which could have been avoided with better supervision and a more tailored approach for beginners. My kid was told to switch her legs while in air and then jump on ground. Safety should always be the top priority, especially for such young children. This being her first exposure to gymnastics, this was obviously too much for her and she fell and twisted her knee. They should be mindful that for such bday party events, only introductory lessons should be thought as for some kids this might be first exposure.

My kids loved their coaches at Advantage Gymnastics. They came home excited to show what they…read morelearned and eager to go back. Then there was a change in management, which also brought new front desk staff. We have a young child who, before the management change, was allowed to sit on the edge of the mat about 15 feet away and would try to do the moves along with the class. With the old staff, we got an understanding smile and some pleasant conversation. Now? Condescending looks accompanied by comments like, "We'll have to charge you for another lesson if your child is on the floor." It's ATROCIOUS working with Advantage now. Here's what you can look forward to: 1) Frequent unanswered calls with no attempts to reply to voicemail 2) Billing issues (always in the gym's favor) 3) A lack of empathy/understanding/customer service 4) The greediest gym I've ever worked with Seriously, if the coaches weren't solid, we'd run away and never look back.

This seems like the place everyone goes to for gymnastics on the Eastside. The parking lot is…read morehorrendous so usually there's a lot of drop-offs and kids running so drive carefully around the area! The registration can be difficult as well with obtaining your desired times. The do offer makeup sessions which is wonderful as gymnastics classes aren't cheap. They hardly have anyone picking up the phones so email/in-person may be your best bet and even then emails can take a day or two and there isn't always someone there at the front desk for in-person chats. There are some instructors that aren't gymnasts themselves. For the younger classes, they hire anyone that is interested in teaching but may not have any gymnastics experience at all.

We had our daughter enrolled in a late evening class (mini flips). I was absolutely unimpressed by…read morethe coach. They stood in a corner (read far with hands in pocket) and only gave oral instructions. I never saw them spotting, helping, or showing the kids on how things are done. I have never seen any sport being taught that way. We moved from another city where the coaches were hands-on and always guiding, showing, and teaching the movements. I am not sure if all coaches are the same but our experience with this particular coach wasn't pleasant at all and we did not see any improvement in our child.

They're so good at teaching skills to a group of energetic little kids while also giving them times to explore all the gym equipment - of which there's a lot! They have balance beams, bars, wedges and so much more. But the best part is that they rearrange them every week (at least) so it's like a completely new layout every time we go. My toddler is so excited to go every time - as am I b/c she literally can just play here forever. We've tried a lot of toddler classes and this one is a must. They also have two open gym sessions a week. If you don't want to do a class, your membership includes these open gym sessions! I've also never had a problem rescheduling classes which is amazing during flu season and for working moms like me.

We ultimately decided to stop because the class no longer felt consistently safe to us…read more The head coach appeared to show clear favoritism toward certain children, while other kids received far less supervision and assistance during activities. During hanging and obstacle exercises, there were moments when children needed help but no coach was nearby to assist or spot them safely. For a ninja-style program involving climbing, swinging, and elevated obstacles, consistent supervision and equal attention to all children should be a basic expectation. What was also disappointing was the lack of concern or follow-up when we chose to withdraw. No one asked why we were leaving or seemed interested in understanding our experience, which left us with the impression that parent feedback and individual student experiences were not being taken very seriously. For parents considering this program, I would recommend paying close attention not only to the facility itself, but also to how consistently all children are supervised, guided, and included during class.

I primarily remember taking part in gymnastics through Cascade Elite Gymnastics because of the…read moreCascade part of the name. When I came here growing up, Cascade was a frequently used word in my social sphere (name of a swim club some of my friends were interested in and my grandad volunteered on trails in the Cascade Mountains). In terms of my artistic gymnastic abilities, I was naturally flexible and high energy. I managed to surprise my family/friends that it did not translate to gymnastics ability. As part of a group, we went through and tried different apparatus to the best of our abilities, I was best at bars and worst at floor. I had/have a fear of falling and for some reason that flared up in my not being able to do a cartwheel (fear of falling flat on my face), however an interest in bars (where fear of falling was overcome by apparatus coolness). My time here was short lived in part because of my not quite taking to it, the workers/instructors were kind and understanding both in my taking part and withdrawing/not continuing.

Both my kids took rec classes. My daughter took them for close to 3 years, I think the preschool…read moreclasses are great but beyond that, these rec classes are waste of time. The feedback from coaches was inconsistent, the coaches kept changing every week. Spring session, there was feedback posted on our online account, but during fall session time there was no feedback, the only communication you get is about strict registration process. Just feels like money pit not really about kids making progress. My daughter lost interest, she switched to different sport.
