Advanced Gymnastics

I have been apart of Advanced Gymnastics for over 9 years now and we love it. I have coached there for over 7. Great family vibe as the gym cares about each and every kid who comes through the door. My kids can't get enough gym time.

We had our daughter in AG for 2 years 7-9 years old. It was pretty good until she wanted to compete. They placed her into Excel Silver, and then kept bumping around from Silver to Bronze. She was being coached by a young girls barely turning 18. There was other group of Excel Gold who were coached by experienced coach, and they were positioned as really advanced. It was a surprise when during competition all “Gold” girls were placed into Silver level to compete at the same level as our daughter! Of course she could not stack up to them! It devastated her! Moreover, during one meet she got highest score from the whole team on her floor routine, and coach changed her routine before very next meet! She simplified it! Plus, change of routine after months of practicing totally confused her. The last straw was when we realized our daughter is not just being held back, but also being ridiculed. We discussed with coach Kris how our daughter is doing with directions (what 9-year-old is great at following directions?!) and coach Kris laughed and said: “ Yeah, she is having hard time, we are calling her Dori” referring to a stupid fish from Finding Nemo. We were shocked. We are paying these people to teach our daughter gymnastics, and they laugh at her. Mind me, she is average child, no developmental delays or disabilities. We couldn’t imagine what would they say about a child with a serious problem! It was a last straw, after last meet that season she did not step into that joint. There are plenty of other gyms in the area to support these kind of people.

So far our experience with Advanced Gymnastics has been great. Reasonable price and quality coaches. My daughter is 4 and has had 2 sessions so far. Only place that offered evening classes that would work around our work schedule. She is having a blast and keeps asking every day if it's 'gymnastics day'!

Advanced Gymnastics was recommeded to us by a friend and I'm so happy we signed our daughter up here. She loves going here and looks forward to class each week.

I went here for 6 months and I'm that 6 months I learned my back hand spring,my kip, and a front hip circle , etc etc! I went from excel to jr olympics in just 6 months. The only reason why I left is because I moved states. I am moving back to Idaho now and I am going back to AG I love that place so much and the staff is great!ud83dude0aud83dude18
