My kids love Flips! My son did not feel out numbered by the girls in the Preschool class and once he turned 5 he was in an all boys class which was nice. My daughter just started the mommy and me class. She has so much fun. Some coaches are pretty young and not totally comfortable with classes but the veterans are wonderful! They have tons of energy and are able to keep it fun for the kids!

My daughter attended for Preschool and Kindergarten gymnastics lessons. She loved the preschool classes! They were fun, the coach was great, and if she wasn’t comfortable with something, she didn’t have to do it. She learned some basic tumbling and balance and coordination skills. The class sizes were small(about 6 – 8) They have gymnastics ‘shows’(for lack of a better term) in spring and winter for the kids to show their skills off to a crowd of parents(emphasis on CROWD). It’s a good way for the kids to build confidence in what they’re learning, and learn how to perform in front of a crowd. I disliked how the kids were told to sit directly in front of VERYLOUD speakers. My daughter complained of ringing ears that night. She liked doing the show. It gets really crowded during class changes, but they can’t help that. They have a large facility with lots of training going on. Some parents could stand learn how to take turns and how to drive in a parking lot, though. The coaches are hit and miss for what works for your child, but you can switch classes if its not working out. The price was reasonable for the classes. We also did a birthday party there, and I highly recommend them for that. It was well organized, the kids had a lot of fun, and it was super easy. Just make sure you have extra activities for the kids! They spend one hour in the gym, then an hour in the party room. All the kids loved it, there was room for parents to hang around if they wanted, and they make it really fun.
