Classic Gymnastics New Hope

★Nancy Thao

I took my 2-year-old here for a trial and was really disappointed by the experience. When we arrived, no one welcomed us, introduced themselves, or gave us a basic rundown of how things typically work. We felt completely overlooked and out of place. Because of that, we never returned. Two months later, I received a call saying I owed over $200 — even though we never continued services. They had the audacity to tell me that I should have informed them I wasn’t coming back. I find that very unprofessional.

Our family loves Classic Gymnastics! The coaches and staff are so helpful and friendly and the facility is great. My daughter loves it and is learning so much. The classes teach her structure and coordination, which is great for a 3 year old. I give her coach Sonia 10/10 I love how firm she is with my big girl!

I’m sorry to have to write this but after hearing experiences from other families i feel i need to be honest about our experience in order to prevent other families the same situations. The owner is rude, condescending and dismissive. He bought the gym from the previous owner and promptly ruined everything we loved about it- fired long time coaches, over promised massive improvements and did not deliver. Communication is lacking at best. I don’t know about the Rec program now but if you are looking for a competitive team experience look anywhere except the classic family of gyms. The owner keeps buying struggling gyms and then neglecting the programs. Not a positive place for children to grow in the sport.

We belonged to Northwest Gymnastics for many years before Classic Gymnastics purchased the gym in July 2021. We were very hopeful about the transition because the owner made several promises at a family meeting in August (upgrades to the building, bringing in new coaching staff, team handbooks, monthly communication newsletters, a front desk person to help with administrative tasks, new leotards for team girls, etc...) The list goes on and on. Not one of those promises was kept, and when we communicated these frustrations, he was incredibly rude and disrespectful to parents, or he would simply ignore communication. I was incredibly concerned about safety because there were 13 team girls there practicing, with one, very inexperienced coach. She was unable to gain control of the room, and kids were climbing on structures without spot or support and attempting skills they weren't capable of doing yet. I stayed at the gym for the entire team practice so that there would be another adult present in case something were to happen. When I called their administration, I was told "we are within the guidelines of SafeSport", which actually, was untrue. We have since left, but are now hearing of this behavior (and worse) at their other locations as well. I also recently heard the owner speak on a podcast stating that his goal is to turn his business into a large revenue producing business (50 mil) by 2025. Seems that he's more focused on making money than creating positive experiences for kids.

I had a birthday party there this afternoon and was very disappointed. I informed the owner of the approximate number of kids that would be attending and he was not properly staffed. The kids did a lot of standing around instead of enjoying the equipment presented. Not only that I reserved for 3 hours and he told his staff that I only booked for 2. When the staff called him he remembered and told me 2 hours was enough and the kids should be tired... How when most of the party have been spent standing in a line?? Never again!!
