I wanted to start off and say that this gym has changed my son’s life! My son has been attending for 2.5 years now and he has blossomed into such a promising gymnast at the age of 8! I’ll be the first to say that my son, having special needs, is NOT the easiest child to deal with. He has high energy and trouble processing specific instructions given to him. Coach Kieran (the owner), and the other coaches, knows exactly how to handle him and bring the absolute best out of him. My son has gone to win many competitions and is now the division state champion for NYS!
They will not move children up to the next class or level if they are not ready. If moved too fast or too early, this is setting the child up for failure in the sport or can lead to a serious injury. Any other gym willing to move children up fast is only looking for a money grab without your child’s best interest in mind.
I recently read a review accusing them of blatantly being racists. The teams are made up of many children of all different races and backgrounds…. And many of them are VERY talented! Seems like someone was upset their little sunshine wasn’t old enough to join a class they weren’t ready for.
If you’re looking for a place where your child will be supported and well coached in their gymnastics journey then this is the place to be!

Our son has been on the boys' team for 7 years and has become a Level 10 gymnast who will continue competing in college. His coach is knowledgable and has a passion for the sport! We're so glad this gym has a boys' team as many gyms no longer do.
With new ownership has come some improvements and updates inside the gym. Parking lot is tight, but that is a landlord issue.
Our son will likely come back during college breaks to train and help out the younger gymnasts.

Our baby just turned one. We brought her here for her first classes, and she seemed to love it. We are excited for her to learn and grow in this program.

My child has attended classes here for three years and is a member of the boys competition team. This gym has a boys competition team, which is hard to find in this area. Gymnasts travel from all over to train here and the level of instruction is superior to what we’ve experienced at other gyms. The instructors are caring, patient and knowledgeable. I ended up signing 2 more of my children up for classes here because we’ve been so happy with the program!

I have been bringing my daughter to BK for over a year, we started off with the mommy and me classes and have just transitioned to the tumbling tigers. From the first day she transitioned to the tumbling tigers , she was constantly targeted and the coach had zero patience with my 2 year old. She is also the only black girl. This place definitely does not cater to minorities. The coach did not seem to know how to handle working with small children. She also came up to me talking down about my daughter saying she was not ready when there were other kids playing around and not listening. If you want someone to cater to your small child that may get distracted easily DO NOT BRING THEM HERE, this is saying alot being that most 2 year olds have a short attention span. The coaches do not know how regulate the classes properly. Also it is very dusty and smells terrible. The bathroom is the most sanitary place there. The kids are dying from the dust and parents from the terrible smell in the waiting room.
DO NOT COME HERE -5/10
