Twisted Gymnastics has been a fantastic experience for my son and me! He loves their Kids’ Night Out program, which happens once a month. It’s so convenient—I can drop him off at 4:30 and pick him up at 7:30, knowing he’s having tons of fun. We’ve also signed him up for regular classes, and I really appreciate how flexible they are. When my kid missed a class, they gave us a token to make it up at another time, which is such a great system. But you only get one token a month. I also checked in with front desk to switch my enrollment of half day camp to kid's night out due to conflict scheduling . Which he has no problem to let me do so . I really appreciate their flexibility. The staff are incredibly friendly, and the owner is wonderful—they clearly care about creating a welcoming environment for both kids and parents. I’ve had such a great experience here that I’ve already recommended their Kids’ Night Out program to many of my friends. If you’re looking for a fun, flexible, and family-friendly place, Twisted Gymnastics might be the great place for you :) I enjoy my little break too We're so happy to have Ms. Grace as our new instructor! The kids absolutely love her. She's incredibly passionate about teaching, and my son had an amazing time in her classes! All the instructors are so nice in this place. I am really happy :D

Both of my kids (7 yr old son and 5 yr old daughter) have been practicing gymnastics here for almost half a year. My son is always looking forward to the class, and it’s the most “fun” class among all the other classes. My daughter has made great progress in the short period of time, and also tries to “teach” me sometimes at home. They both like the couple of coaches they had (coach Misty, Kyle, Kiara, Elise). They may have different styles but all pay great attention to the kids and trained them like real gymnasts! Compare to other gyms around, the best thing I like is the cleanness, and not over crowded, so the kids can focus on the coach and instructions, and not get distracted from other kids and loud noise. They also have super easy makeup class policy, which is super convenient for kids with busy schedules! Overall great experience and highly recommended.

We spent 9mo here with my daughter working hard and qualifying for the Xcel bronze team to learn that the team wasn't going to happen because there weren't enough students. We continue to wait patiently for 3 more months only to realize slowly that there was no way up and that my daughter was now being asked to coach little kids with absolutely no focus on her growth. Ultimately it was my mistake in realizing late that her last 3 months were an absolute waste of time and that she wasn't going anywhere. If you go here, keep an eye on what's going on, else it might be a total waste of time if your child is serious. Edit: since the owner guy won't let go, I am attaching the relevant email with names/emails redacted. Happy to unredact if necessary. And if there's really a balance, I was never notified, feel free to send the bill. I will presume that this is a barren lie if I don't get a bill!

I am deeply saddened to write this review as a parent of a special needs child who looked forward to participating in Twisters Gym's special needs gymnastics class. Our experience, which began with high hopes, has unfortunately led us to withdraw from the program and question its suitability and sensitivity towards children with unique challenges. From the outset, we were impressed with the promise of a supportive and adaptive environment for children like my son, Brandon. However, our journey was marked by a series of disappointments, culminating in an incident that not only left my child distressed but also highlighted a significant gap in the program's ability to accommodate the diverse needs of its participants. The lack of patience and flexibility during a class, critical components for any special needs program, was disheartening. Even more troubling was the response (or lack thereof) to our concerns. Despite multiple attempts to communicate the impact of this incident on my son and our family, our concerns were met with silence and inaction. This indifference has left us feeling undervalued and overlooked, a sentiment no family should experience in a setting designed to uplift and support special needs children. Moreover, the decision to inactivate the class without a clear plan for addressing these issues or providing alternatives for affected families shows a disregard for the continuity and stability that is vital for our children's development and well-being. While I acknowledge the prompt refund for unused classes, this gesture does not compensate for the emotional and psychological toll on my son. A program's success should not be measured solely by its ability to manage administrative tasks but by its commitment to creating an inclusive, understanding, and adaptive environment for all participants. It is with a heavy heart that I must advise other families of special needs children to carefully consider whether Twisters Gym's current special needs gymnastics program aligns with the values and support they seek for their loved ones. Our children deserve spaces where they are not just accommodated but celebrated for their unique strengths and abilities. Unfortunately, based on our experience, it seems Twisters Gym has significant room for improvement in this regard.

Worst experience ever! I enrolled my daughter in a month-long class, but due to their system malfunction, her name wasn't on the class list. While she waited in line, the coach and owner, Allen, made no effort to resolve the issue. Instead, he began the class with the other kids, leaving my daughter standing there, embarrassed and helpless. She cried, asking us for help. After we figured out it was their system's fault, Allen did nothing—no apology, no effort to invite our still-upset daughter back to class. We stayed to comfort her and eventually got her ready for class again. But when we sent her back, Allen ignored her once more, leaving her alone on the sidelines! This was devastating for her confidence and motivation. Adding insult to injury, Allen coldly informed us that parents aren’t usually allowed to stay on the floor during class. Seriously? If this is how you treat a child in front of her parents, I can’t imagine what happens when we're not around. This felt like blatant neglect and bullying. To all parents considering signing up, think twice. Our children deserve caring coaches who foster their confidence, not cold, unempathetic behavior like this.
