Forest City Gymnastics

I am a mom of a competitive gymnast at FCGC and I have nothing but great things to say about this club. The coaches are attentive and know my daughter as a person. She is not a number and treated like an individual. They are compassionate and caring and continuously push her out of her comfort zone when they believe in her more than she believes in herself sometimes. The lessons she has learned that aren’t gymnastics related will launch her forward as an adult and for that I am forever grateful. I recently volunteered for championship weekend and I have to say they did an incredible job! They relied heavily on volunteers and when some didn’t show up they made do with who they had in order to keep the championships going! There were people being moved around and the owners and staff all jumped in to help when they were short people that weekend. For a massive event run solely on volunteers I applaud you for being able to make it happen for 4 days! They were pleasant and grateful for my help and I was honoured to be able to be part of such an exciting event. My daughter is with FCGC because of how incredible they treat her, she is part of the family and she has had personal growth that exceeds the norm. I am so proud to be part of this club and knowing my daughter is safe and cared for in a way most clubs wouldn’t. Thank you for being so great, giving the bandaids even though it’s not bleeding, for giving the hugs when emotions are high, for teaching her life long values and respect, and always encouraging her to go for it and to never give up. She is a resilient and determined young lady and I give credit to FCGC and their coaches for those incredible lifelong lessons.

Have had nothing but great experiences here. The front desk staff are super helpful and friendly. I enrolled my twins in kindergym and the coaches were great with him/her. The coaches ensured that each child was progressing to the best of their abilities throughout the whole session. I also did a lot of research on other gyms and FCGC has very reasonable prices for such a great experience.

Our 6 and 8 year old had a blast!! The staff were always friendly and the kids came home tired every day! Well organized and the kids had lots to do. Outdoor time, gym time and crafts. The kids had a blast.

The parent and tot was amazing for my two year old. She loved every second of it. Her coach Jordan was very good with the kids and had a lot of patience.

Can’t wait until my daughters course that’s paid for finishes so I can switch to a new gymnastics. Overcrowded Unappreciative rude and salty. Beth greets who she feels fit coming in ourselves are not included. Coaches look and act more like babysitters except never introducing themselves to the parents they favour students and seemingly does the same things over and over. They had emailed people looking for volunteers for the championship they were hosting asking for teens and adults and thought this was a great opportunity for my oldest to experience. They were nothing but chaotic unorganized and disrespectful. No smile no thanks no appreciation for her time. No introduction no hi how are you. Nothing. No guide no help. She was given a job via e mail and then it ended up being at the wrong times and stood doing nothing then had the job taken from her on day 3. She showed up on time looking to help in any way all 3 days on time and on the last day they told her she wasn’t needed. What’s wrong with writing that the night prior in an e mail? There nice until they get what they want your money or your time. Save yourself the headaches there are so many other people that appreciate you for their business this place has been around 44 years and practices no morals or ethics giving all the wrong signs you don’t want your kids to pick up or learn in life especially on how to treat people.

The staff are friendly, accepting and very professional. My daughter enjoys attending the camps and her classes. The staff have done a fantastic job throughout Covid. The policies have been communicated with families regularly and professionally.My son has been asking to join and is now in KinderGym. He’s been enjoying it.Thank you to all the staff for doing a wonderful job. Keep up the great work.

I can only speak for the 3-4 age class but don’t waste your’s and your kids time. They do the same thing for 11 weeks - no progression, no challenge, no nothing. The instructors are simply babysitters rather than “teachers”. Half the time they aren’t even looking at the girls. There is a 1-1 ratio most weeks with absences and still there is no teaching or even help really. They just let the kids “be” which is super annoying for the price we paid, but at the same time don’t let them experience with and try out new stuff. This would definitely be possible if they just paid attention. There is also so much time wasted just sitting around. If it’s a hour class let’s do stuff for the hour. Maybe the older age groups are better but this is definitely not gymnastics at the age 3-4 group.

I had my daughters birthday there in March. We did the Cirque birthday with 10 kids. When we showed up the tables in the party room were dirty ( they did clean them with vinegar while we were in there) the two young girls were told the wrong time for the kids to be on the floor. So they didn’t do all the activities promised and ended up standing in lines waiting their turns. They did the rings in the back of the gym so I was yelled at by a coach to get off the floor when I went to take pictures. I sent a message to the owner with zero response. Very disappointed!

Amazing workers, and very safe environment! Would recommend joining your kids into the summer camp they provide there is a whole day of fun activities for them.

I started practicing gymnastics here about a year ago, and have absolutely fallen in love with it! As an adult with no prior experience, I am so grateful for the coaches who run the adult classes, because an open gym just wouldn't be enough for me! The staff are phenomenal, everyone is friendly and caring, and the new addition of studio cirque is incredibly exciting!
