Southern Starz Gymnastics

This place is fantastic! Not sure why there hasn’t been a review in a while, but those old ones? Totally off. This gym is perfect. It’s your classic gymnastics facility: rope wall, pillow pits, balance beams, horses, bouncy floors, trampolines, you name it. It’s super clean, has tons of fans, and even in the dead of summer, I’m cool and comfortable (which says a lot in Florida!). There are so many classes, friendly instructors, and happy kids. Everyone is kind and welcoming. Tons of seating for parents too, which is always a win. The instructors are great with the kids; patient, energetic, and fun. The pictures online don’t do it justice, it’s way more lively and fun in person. And guess what? It’s actually affordable! Best price I’ve seen for weekly classes in Cape Coral or Fort Myers. It’s just a one-time $30 registration and $50 per kid for the whole month. As a parent and someone who’s dabbled in gymnastics myself I can honestly say it’s perfect. Highly recommend!

This gym is great. We moved our daughter here from another gym in Cape Coral over a year ago. She gets so much more one on one and better coaching here. They are very safety oriented and also have a skilled spotter available when needed. The owner and coaches really care about their athletes, helping them get stronger and better. Love this place‼️

I really wanted to love this gym. It’s so close to home. Unfortunately the first impression is hot and dirty. I could look past that easily if the actual work was good. The staff is rude and doesn’t really pay attention to the kids. The teacher will tell them to do something and half of the class will and the other half doesn’t know how and they don’t show them or care to even say anything or help, they just move on to the next thing. The teachers spend their time talking amongst each other or just looking like it’s painful for them to be there. My daughter is 5, she’s gone here for at least 7 months and literally has barely learned anything at all. Along with other girls I see. The one teacher is young and Asian and she’s so sweet and amazing with the kids, helpful, personable, completely different dynamic when she is there, I’ve asked if we can go to her classes only but the director says they don’t have set times so it’s no way to go to her classes specifically.. the absolute only reason I’ve lasted so long wasting my money here is because of its location and I like to support local businesses ..

We came to open gym for the first time and my son had a blast with his friends. The only thing I would like for staff to keep in mind is to be respectful regardless of the child's age. My son and his friends were playing in the little kid area and under the slide are two square holes. The kids went in there and played. A teen staff with black and faded green/blue hair approached the kids to tell them to get out from under there. My son asked her "why?" and was told "because I said so." I find this very rude. For someone that works at the gym, I would expect staff to explain to children regardless of their age the reason why they should not play in the square holes, whether it is because of safety or other reasons. But to tell a young kids "because I said so" is unacceptable.

We went to the open gym on Friday. Parking is difficult so get there early. The gym itself is dirty and hot. I'm pretty sure my daughter got sick from there as she was coughing and sneezing for weeks after. This aside, my 2.5 year old loved it! They have slides, balls pits, trampolines, mats, balance beams, ropes to climb, uneven, parallel bars, and basically everything a 2.5 year old loves to do. I can't remember if it was$5 or $10 for the open gym but we were there for about an hour before my little one exhausted. The staff (or lack of staff) was not helpful or friendly. The lady at the front desk didn't really give any instruction and just told me to sign in and pay. I didn't realize that my daughter was supposed to take her shoes off until I asked another mom. They had another class going on in a separate room and my daughter wandered in there a couple times. The students actually helped me usher her out! If my child hadn't really enjoyed herself I would not suggest or go back and we probably won't for a bit.
