Youth Fitness Zone

★★★★Ryan Bishop

I can't speak towards the coaches or classes only as a visiting competitor. This gym is very nice and clean. Doesn't have that old gym smell. Equipment looked good and maintained. There was adequate seating but got pretty full. This was my second time visiting. My one criticism is each time we have waited almost a hour past start time to begin. Spending over 4 hours there and finishing after 10:00 is bad especially for those still traveling back to OKC or Tulsa. Maybe its coincidence that both experiences have been super late. From my two separate visits it seems like time management is lacking.

We were members of Youth Fitness Zone off and on for many years. We had a lot of mixed experiences. The open gym is a lot of fun and birthday parties there are the absolute best. They win there, hands down. I have four kids, and I feel like I know them pretty well. Two are very easy going and two are definitely spirited. We had problems with a few different coaches ruining the fun experience. Even my “easy”, very obedient, child complained of mean coaches. My spirited little girl was told her “jumps were terrible.” She was in beginning cheer classes. 😳 Of course they were terrible! How mean to say such a thing to a beginner 6 year old. When I complained, the owner told me she is a great coach and maybe just had a bad day? Neither of my older kids wanted to go back after that. I didn’t want to force them to go, so we pulled all of our kids and decided to drive to Edmond and attend Oklahoma Gold. WOW! What a difference. All of the kids are thriving and truly enjoying gymnastics again. I feel like they have made so much progress in their short time at OKG and their confidence has definitely grown exponentially. I’m really sad we were not able to get that experience locally, as we strive to support local and small businesses whenever possible. I’m leaving this review so if others are reading this and having issues at Youth Fitness Zone, they know there are other options!

My daughter Georgia has been going since she was 2 years old, we started out doing the open play on Fridays now she is on a competitive team age 7. We have never had any issues with this gym, my daughter has thrived through their coaching and encouragement. Julie and her coaches truly treat all the kids as if they were there own. I would highly recommend this gym to anyone looking for a place for their gymnast or somewhere to have fun on a Friday night. We love being apart of the YFZ family and know that my daughter's coaches always want the best for her.

My daughter has been competing for this gym for over four years and has loved every minute of her time here! She loves her gym family. She is there 16 hours a week during the year and 20 hours a week over the summer. This gym is safe and fun and the owners love our gymnasts like they are their own children! You will NEVER find a safer gym with coaches who are trained to handle any situation! They are supportive and encouraging and are a second family to everyone who comes through their doors!!!!!

BEST gym ever! My gymnast and my cheerleader get to compete for the same place. Less time wasted traveling between gyms, and the staff/owners are amazing. They know our family by name and create a fun atmosphere for kids to learn and grow in. My 3 kiddos are STILL a part of the Zone family, and I absolutely stand behind Julie, the rest of her family, and all coaches/staff at Youth Fitness Zone. As a mom to a VERY rambunctious little boy, I have NEVER been worried about his safety while at open gym. There are several areas where kids are allowed to play at the gym. There are signs and instructions on which areas your children should be in, and the staff is pretty great about ensuring the safety if all kiddos. Parents are welcome to go into the fun zones and SUPERVISE their children. I'm not a staff member, but I have personally had to back up some staff members because some kids were not listening. They are usually polite in asking kids not to run, not to play on certain equipment, and especially to be mindful of others. However, most children, do not listen to "niceness", in those times. I have used my "cheer" voice to garner the attention necessary for kids to listen for instructions. To blame the owners/staff for an accident that could have happened anywhere, is absurd. As a mom involved with this gym for over 3 years, with 2 kids on competitive teams, I hate to see this gym under attack. No, I don't want to see a kid hurt, BUT I also realize that accidents happen, and questions should be answered before jumping the gun. Was the hurt kid in their designated zone? Was a parent of such a young kid within arms reach? Was the staff responsive or dismissive? Let's not jump to conclusions and give insight on preventative measures. My gymnast (16 years old)was CONSTANTLY looked after while on the team. Any and every hurt was looked at as an issue, NEVER had an ache dismissed. I find it hard to believe that a young child, 2 years and under, would be mishandled by the staff. My cheerleader was given the same treatment and even a small incident(sprained wrist) was wrapped, iced, and given a referral. My son, NOT a Zone member, was treated with respect, kindness, and gentleness by the staff and other kids who are regulars.
