Twisters Sports

My daughter has been at Twisters for seven years. She LOVES gymnastics and even more she loves the coaches and the friendships she has made at Twisters. As a parent, my biggest concern has been injury. I give full credit to her coaches for their skill and methodology, that she has stayed healthy for all these years. Allan’s philosophy is wholistic, teaching life skills, love of fitness, teamwork, discipline, hard work, etc. without overtraining the athletes. Since the gym switched to “Xcel only” my daughter trains half the amount of hours per week, but she is more focused during the short practices, continues to make steady progress on learning new skills, and is more balanced in her life (more time for schoolwork and friends).nnMy daughter is in tenth grade now and the skills she has learned at the gym make her a better student, and more adept at handling her mindset with life’s challenges outside the gym. She also carries herself with confidence; she knows she is strong and fit and she is proud of herself.nnI have always harbored reservations about gymnastics. I had misconceptions about the culture, the injuries, body image issues, and I didn’t consider it a team sport. Seeing my daughter truly thrive in gymnastics, on all levels, and witnessing so many girls thrive through their experience at Twisters, after many years, has brought me to a full conversion. I now believe every child would benefit from gymnastics. I think the people you bring into your child’s life are more important than any circumstance, and Twisters hires fantastic coaches across the board. If your child is one of the very lucky to train with Allan or Ericka, your child will be blessed by the experience.nnOff to drive my daughter to gym....

Below is our yelp reviewnEmbed reviewnEdit reviewn1.0 star rating 3/2/2017 Updated reviewnWhy does a great place with good staff let mean a coach spoil the place? Coach Nicole had my 12 year daughter in tears. I will confront and update when I find out why but that is BS!!!nnSo employee Nicole defended herself by accusing my daughter of rolling her eyes and not listening. My daughter does not do this and Nicole the first instructor to have ever said this!! Today my kid left our home a happy person and came from gymnastics sad.nnDelete reviewn3.0 star rating 10/10/2016 Previous review Thanks Liliana for the great shout out for Salah's vault!! Liliana One of the instructors uses positive motivation for ALL the students. We checked a few of the gymnastic gyms in our local Sunnyvale area and found this gym to have the best instructors and equipment in the south bay. I was actually impressed with all the instructors, I later found out that this gym has produced Olympic contenders! I really recommend this gym, The rates are reasonable a real thumbs up. Shout out For coach Dana who is the gymnastics whisper she knows just what to say in a calm nurturing manner, and coach Nicole who has a lot of dynamic energy how ever uses to much negative criticism.

My son has taken taekwondo instruction from Jericho for two years now. I am very pleased with the results. Jericho is a great teacher - respectful, fun but firm, a great communicator and very very patient. My son started slowly but has really accelerated in recent months and is learning so much each week. In addition to the martial arts instruction, Jericho has a great mentor approach with the kids which reinforces the importance of being a good student, classmate and citizen. Thank you to Jericho and the rest of the team at Twisters!

We had taken up the red party package for our daughter's birthday. The first hour of gymnastics was fantastic. All kids loved it. It was a lot of different activities in many rooms but it was done in a safe manner. The instructor went through warmup for the kids and kept them interested. Kids who hadn't tried gymnastics in the past were able to pick up the activities easily. Highly recommended.

My daughter has been involved in Twisters program for 6 years now and I can say that we've been really happy here. She's been steadily moved up throughout the years and the communication with the team staff is really quite good. We've had regular meetings throughout the years and my wife and I's input is always valued. We don't always agree with some decisions and she's had her ups and downs in this sport, but I think it's the nature of competitive gymnastics. She's done very well competitively here and the staff is always approachable and engaged. I feel like she's really cared about and that's the most important thing for us.
