When my daughter first began this gym, I thought her coach was nice and the gym was well layed out. However, as we spent more time there and she entered the team, I got an entirely different impression. There is a major lack of communication between the owner, coaches, and parents. They consider parents to be a nuisance. The team coaches are verbally abusive to the children and sometimes parents. The coaches and owner believe in motivation through intimidation. I am aware of many families, including my own, who have left the gym for the above reasons. I warn you to seriously consider the atmosphere you want your child exposed to before considering this gym. There are other gyms in the area with entirely different philosophies. At my daughter's current gym, she is motivated with encouragement and is given corrective feedback. She is much happier and making much better progress.
Cons: Verbally abusive--enough said!
