West Coast Rush

My daughter started at WCR in March 2014 at three years old. She was diagnosed with mild social anxiety and was very shy around others. She wouldn’t talk to others and avoided eye contact. So we signed her up for the Tiny Level 1 team, the Tiaras, to encourage her to step outside her shell. She would cry and wail before walking in but after a few months of encouragement, high fives and hugs from coaches she began enjoying her time there and has made loads of new friends. One year later, she is thriving, talking, playing and attempting stunts and technique she used to shy away from.
The program is not for the faint of heart, its a big parental commitment. You should be able to add last minute practices to your schedule and there will be travel to competitions. It’s a competitive program and they take their jobs very seriously at WCR. The little ones are treated like big girls. They must be on time, properly dressed and ready to work. At 4 years old, it has taught my daughter responsibility and team work. Its a great program for our family and we’re proud to be part of it.

We attended a birthday party and it was AMAZING! The coaches were so patient with all the kids and were super welcoming. They really know how to engage and keep a large group of 5 year olds entertained. My 5 year old daughter did not want to leave when the party was over but most surprisingly my 3 year old boy who can by clingy in new places just could not get enough of the trampoline /​the obstacle course /​the big jumper with a slide. All the kids had so much fun. The staff was young, energetic and had genuine smiles on their faces throughout the whole party. And I didn’t feel bad about kids eating cake and ice-​cream because they got so much exercise they actually needed the energy :)

We LOVE West Coast Rush!!! We will begin our 3^rd season here. My daughters absolutely LOVE cheering here. Carlos and Jen and all of the amazing coaches are fabulous!!! There is no place better. We can’t say enough about this place simply amazing. Love the family atmosphere and their hard work and dedication to our children.

We are new to the WCR family. We just joined a squad a month ago and I have never felt more secure in a sports team decision. Carlos and Jennifer are wonderful and most importantly they are kind, welcoming and really care about the development and improvement of each child. Natalie is an absolute GEM! And they have an impressive crew of coaches. My daughter is new to gymnastics and is still developing muscle control etc.- they are so patient and supportive of her. She needs to improve to perform at the level of the other kids– but even with that said– I feel like it is a great place for beginners to advanced. This is a close nit group, but so far I have found the families welcoming.
FYI– This is a very professional organization with serious coaches who have amazing credentials. You get out of it what you put into it. Absolute TOP NOTCH! The time commitment for the teams is high, but the payoff and the value are already worth it. The gym facility is AMAZING! Huge and with all the training equipment you can imagine. The parent viewing room is a great — love to watch my kid practice! They have accomplished a tremendous amount with the kids already and they have high expectations– which is great. They expect the kids to deliver their best. So far – I totally give them an A+!
We have fumbled around with soccer, basketball and dance classes for my daughter and never really found a program that she loved and felt confident in. She loves RUSH and feels like part of the team! Plus the glittery cheer bows are an absolute plus!

open gym is the best. What a great place for kids to hang out with supervision and plently of opportinuties to exercise.

Outstanding coaches that actually care, push, and motivate to get you (or your child) to next level potential. They focus more on personal and team growth than they do on «winning», unlike a lot of other cheer teams, which is great and naturally creates winners :-). Definitely a great program to be a part of!
