Team Central Gymnastics Academy

"My son was born with low muscle tone and did physical therapy for the first year of his life. Gymnastics has been a great and fun way for him to continue to gain strength in both is upper and lower body! The coaches and staff are super friendly and dedicated to the kids!"

"My daughter was going to this gym going on 2 years now. We started in the parent and toddler class, took a break and I tried re-enrolling her in the next level class. Within the first month of her being back my 3 year old little girl was already getting bullied by a bigger and older child and end up having a huge knot on her head. They DO NOT enforce their no hitting/bullying policy especially when it pertains to “certain” children. Ive seen them handle bullying differently in the past but nothing was done when it came to my child. Me and my husband’s concerns were completely dismissed. And I refuse to pay for my toddler to get BULLIED. I paid almost 200.00 just to re-enroll her and now I cant even get in contact with anyone. I tired asking for the Director and no one will even call me back they are completely trying to sweep this issue under the rug. If you have children of COLOR I don't recommend this gym as their is obviously unfair treatment taking place. Policies and rules should be enforced fairly not dependent on the “child”. Instead of responding to this review I would love for someone to call me and my husband and address our concerns for our child’s safety with fairness. Thank you"

"We've had 3 girls go through Team Central. They started in the classes and went on to either the JO or Xcel teams. We now have been with the TC family for almost a decade. The coaches can be demanding, but it's to make the kids better and keep them safe. All of the coaches we've interacted with care about the gymnasts, are experts at what they do, and want to see the gymnasts succeed. Thank you, TC!"

"3 of my daughters are gymnasts at Team Central; 2 on the competitive team and one in the team prep class. We have been doing gymnastics at TC since 2020 and absolutely LOVE everything about it! Staff is wonderful, accommodating and kind to us. The coaches are high-quality and very educated in their craft. My girls progress in their skills and have so much fun at every practice/class. All 3 of my girls have come so far since we started at TC and I am so grateful for the gymnastics, life skills and confidence that they learn/gain from the opportunities they have at TC. We wouldn’t want to be anywhere else!"

"There are two things that disappointed me greatly about our experience with Team Central. First, I did not get the sense that I was being communicated with honestly. That is the most important thing because it so very important to trust the people our young athletes spend so much time with, who are responsible for the safety of children, and who have as much influence as coaches have. I value honesty, and it just really seemed like something was off about what I was being told. The other problem is that even though usag allows gymnasts to compete in shorts, leggings, or tights with no score deduction, Team Central does not allow their athletes that option in competition and seems to strongly discourage it in practice. The gym my daughter had to leave when we moved allowed their athletes to wear shorts in competition if they chose even years back when it resulted in a small score deduction. The coach there said they cared about the gymnasts’ safety, form, comfort, effort, and growth. And so if the athlete chose to wear shorts and take the deduction, that was okay with her as the coach. I hope more gyms develop that attitude including Team Central. Every gym can make improvements. I hope Team Central will change their shorts/leggings policy in the very near future out of respect for the athletes. The honesty thing I do sincerely hope was a misunderstanding on my part. It was at the very least poor communication choices that resulted in the appearance of dishonesty. I am happy that we have found a different gym that I do trust and that follows the same dress code as usag. And I look forward to hearing about positive changes at Team Central."
