Dominique Dawes Gymnastics & Ninja Academy

"We were so underwhelmed by our experience at this facility. Our 3 year old daughter had an amazing instructor for 3 classes and then she was replaced with a very junior low energy teacher who seemed distracted and bored for the entire class. When we approached the director about this they agreed and said our initial instructor was a trainer and they know they don’t have that caliber of teacher readily available. When we went to disenroll we lost all of our makeup classes because of the policy which the director said she had no influence or flexibility on. Save your money and find a better program!"

"My 8yo daughter has loved her experience in the Ninja 2 class since enrolling several months ago. The instructors in this class are enthusiastic and engage well with this age group. The facilities are expansive and well maintained. My daughter is always excited to attend class, gets great exercise during class, and is in a great mood at the end of class. This is really what it's all about in my view. There is always room for improvement in any operation and this place is no exception, however I don't think the several 1-star reviews that are specifically about birthday parties don't truly give an accurate picture of the primary purpose of this gym which is to provide ongoing classes in a safe and positive environment. In my experience they excel at the latter."

"Our experience with this gymnastics center has been nothing short of fantastic! The facility is clean and well-organized and I appreciate the bleachers for parents to watch the sessions from. The instructors are not only friendly but also incredibly helpful, providing a positive and supportive environment. My daughter has made good progress and really enjoyed the end of year showcase which was super fun! The entire staff has been consistently helpful and have created a welcoming atmosphere. I wholeheartedly give it five stars and highly recommend it to anyone seeking a positive gymnastics experience!"

"Although the facility is very nice and new, the management appears to be somewhat disorganized, possibly due to lack of experienced staff. Additionally, the pricing is higher compared to other gyms. I hope they can enhance their management, especially in terms of advancement and makeup classes. On one occasion, I was already on the way to take my kids for a makeup class when I received a call informing me that the class was canceled, disrupting our plans."

"Today was my first time visiting Dominique Dawes' gym for a birthday party. General comment, the signage needs to be improved as it is not at at all clear that the facility is in the BACK of the strip mall. We attended the gym for a birthday party of a dear friend and were excited as we heard so many great things about the gym. I will say, the facilities are beautiful and clean. My kids had a blast. This rating is for the extremely poor and unprofessional service my friend received while trying to celebrate her baby's birthday. 1st. If the gym is going to decide to hold birthday parties they need to ensure that guests have a 2-hour time block. If this cannot be accommodated then they should rethink offering this service. The party took place from 2:30-4. Children were given 1 hour to play with 30 minutes for cake and refreshments. Given the size and amount of FUN the kids were having, 1 hour just isn't enough time and almost every child was crying when they announced the open gym was over and had to go into the party room. Second, you would have thought the staff person leading the event worked on a Toyota assembly line. She INCESSENTLY reiterated to my friend AND the guests how many minutes we had left. You couldn't even enjoy the play time without being reminded you were about to be kicked out of the building. 3. We get to the room for pizza. The staff member insisted on serving everyone food, which from a customer service perspective, was fine. But when you have guests on a minute and second count down, it literally would have been faster to let parents get their kids food. By the time the kids were done eating, we sang happy birthday to the birthday boy but no one could enjoy their cupcakes because the staff member was telling my friend she only had 3 minutes left and would be charged extra. So we all hustled to try and get our kids' things together, cupcakes in hand, and assist my friend's family (who has a whole newborn child with them) to gather things. We waited at the entrance to take a group photo while the rest of the staff were locking up and giving us annoyed looks. If the expectation of the facility is that their staff will leave and the building will be vacated promptly at 4:00, THEN DON'T ALLOW BIRTHDAY PARTIES TO GO TO 4:00. Overall, it's disappointing because I always aim to support a black business, the facility was beautiful, and my children did have fun for the one hour on the dot and not 1 minutes more they were allowed to play (Insert eyeroll). I might be back in a non-birthday environment. I DEFINITELY would recommend AGAINST holding a birthday party here unless you like a military style run event with no flexibility or grace."
