Powered by GoogleGreat gym for kids to learn about gymnastics. They have open gym for the kids to explore the gym, they have classes for kids to learn, they have parent night out and camps during the summer. The office staff is nice and helpful, the coaches are knowledgeable. We've enjoyed our time with Defying Gravity
Unfortunately, our experience here hasn’t been great. We enrolled our child with high hopes, but ultimately had to withdraw for several reasons. The gym is not air conditioned, and during the hot Georgia summer, the indoor temperatures were genuinely uncomfortable and at times felt unsafe — especially for young kids engaging in physical activity. When I raised this concern, the response I received was essentially “It’s just Georgia heat,” which felt dismissive and didn’t reflect a commitment to providing a safe environment. We also didn’t feel our child was receiving much instruction during classes. There was very little guidance or structure, and we left sessions unsure of what skills were being taught or developed. On top of that, the gym charged us for August tuition even though I submitted our drop request within the required timeframe. It’s a 45-minute drive for us, and between the lack of structure, heat, and billing issues, it just wasn’t worth it. I appreciate the coaches who were kind to my child, but I hope the gym takes this feedback seriously — both for the safety of the kids and the trust of families investing in these programs.
Our daughter has been taking tumbling classes for about 4 years with Defying Gravity. They have been wonderful, working on tumbling skills, social interaction, and they are super flexible with her ever changing schedule. The staff & coaches are always friendly and helpful. I cannot recommend them enough!
We’re new to Georgia and my daughter is a competitive gymnast. We had tried 2 other gyms before trying this one. I would say about 5 minutes into their tryout, my daughter had the biggest grin on her face, and when they were done with their tryout, my daughter, Coach Anna, and Coach Starr came running out to me all 3 with BIG smiles and ready to work. This gym has been the best decision ever. Coach Anna and Coach Starr have been amazing with my daughter, she has grown as a gymnast and a leader since we’ve been there. The staff has been great too! They are flexible, understanding and really work with parents in terms of payments. This gym has a great family feel to it, and I’m SO. GLAD to be a part of this gym. I also love watching how it’s growing too! The classes have grown so much since we’ve been there. Sign of great things to come!
I just signed our daughter up for her very first Gymnastics Lesson! The coaches seemed enthusiastic and encouraging taking the time to assist those children who needed it. Our daughter went home that day and started practicing on her own! She is completely motivated!!
