If I could leave no star, I would. Terrible business that left us without a response when asking for a refund instead of a credit for our daughter who broke her wrist and no longer wanted to participate in this sport.

This place is a joke. You're behind a tinted window where you can't even watch your daughter practice. They make all this money and can't even to afford to offer comfortable seating, if they even have any, for their paying customers. Parents bring their own fold up chair or even sit on the floor. They have a busted and torn couch where it's more comfortable to sit on the floor as you stare at the tinted window. They even have a tv in the corner that at times, doesn't work so parents are either on their phone or talking amongst each other.
They compete in cheer events where they don't even know the location and time, until the last minute. It's nice to know a week or 2 ahead of time because some parents work. Some of us have to see if we can get the day off etc.... Scheduling is important
It baffles me that they do not know how to operate a business and provide quality customer service for their paying customers. They love auto debit though. They'll pull money from your card without notice or bother to tell you, what it's for.
They play favoritism as well. If you're not part of the crew, your daughter will be watching.
It's obvious that the positive reviews are from the employees or friends of the owner. Lying to get business will always come back to you. It's karma
If you don't believe me, walk in for yourself and observe

Completed an intro class with 9 year old beginner. As much as I want to like this place my 1st encounter was not pleasant.
1. Walked in with no greeting . In fact not even a lift of the head to see who walked in
2. Admin Melissa has a poor nasty attitude.
3. They told me my daughter would be called into the class and was never called. I had to ask 6 minutes into the class
4. Met coach Wendy whom my daughter later shared was mean
5. Back to Melissa.. I inquired as to why the 1st class was 130$ as compared to the subsequent. Her nasty response was “that’s just what it is and should be more”
I wanted to like this place but for the cost.. I need to have a pleasant experience walking in there

They never answer their phone during business hours. 90% of the time I call they don’t answer and then turn their phones off. Horrible service.

My daughter is a complete beginner and she loves the cheer basics class. Coach Hugo has been amazing at building her confidence and helping her to feel more at ease with every passing week. We are so excited to continue these classes and are even looking into starting beginning tumbling!

If you're looking at these reviews, please take notice that they are ALL done in the last 2 weeks. Remember, reviews don't tell the entire story. Everyone currently at Intensity was sent an email asking for these 5 star reviews. They were told that if they weren't 5 star, do not send reviews. This upsets me for a couple of reasons. First, honesty is very important, and for an owner to do this is wrong. Second. This gym collects the money in cash for a private with a coach. Coach never shows, makes excuses, and no money is refunded. Owner refuses = dishonesty. Third. People are not like family unless you are a part of a clic. Yes, coaches are cool 😎 but, they suck you in for more money, promises made but never complete. Just keep your eyes open. My daughter, age 15, is still hurt from the way she was treated. Stealing $100 cash is NOT right. Pay it back!
September 19, 2024. They are still holding my money. I figured this was just another lie. 2 months short of a year and nothing. Also, I am currently working on the transcripts from the meeting in question. I will post it when finished. Hear it for yourselves. My daughter loves the coaches but nothing more. Here is a Pic of her at the banquet after being treated badly.

We started cheer at intensity when my daughter was 7 years old. We came from a terrible gym environment to Intensity and instantly felt like we were home. Every coach and gym staff has always been so welcoming and supportive. We have met some of our closest friends through this gym. Highly recommend intensity if you are looking for a cheer program, tumbling or even a mommy and me class for you and your little one. Can’t say enough good things about intensity and the owners.

My athlete had a private lesson with coach Janelle. The experience left her confident and prepared for her next practice. She felt heard and coached respectfully and without fluff.

Intensity has been a great fit for our daughter. New to cheer, we started with tumbling class and the performance team. That’s all it took for our daughter to be hooked. She loves the gym and the sport. Her coaches were supportive, encouraging and her skills and confidence has blossomed. She enjoys her current team and she’s excited to keep growing with Intensity!

My daughter has been on a competitive team at Intensity for 4 years. Her growth! Blows my mind. What a testament of having great coaches and a growth mindset environment can do. To say my child has only gained cheer skills here is an understatement. She has learned about commitment, work ethic, team work, and perseverance all while doing what she loves. I love seeing her confidence grow and that’s in huge part to Intensity. The coaches have no idea what an impact they make to these kids and their whole families! 🫶🏼

My daughter has been going to Intensity for about 6 months and she loves it. She takes a Flyer class and a intro to tumbling and she has learned so much and has gained confidence in herself. I love how the classes are taught and all the instructors. Thank you Wendy, Hugo, and Tristin and the intensity staff for giving my daughter a great experience at her first gym!!!

Intensity Athletics is more than just a gym for my daughter Grace; it’s a place where young athletes come together to build not just their physical skills but also their character. The stellar cheer program, in particular, stands out for its emphasis on teamwork, friendship, and personal development.
We love Intensity Athletics for many reasons. The dedicated coaches emphasize the importance of working together to achieve common goals, fostering a sense of unity among the cheerleaders. The program also places a strong emphasis on building friendships, creating a supportive environment where athletes not only push each other to succeed but also celebrate each other’s victories.
The dedication to hard work is apparent in every practice session. Coaches challenge the girls to push beyond their limits, instilling a strong work ethic that goes beyond the gym. What sets this program apart is its focus on giving each girl a voice.

We have been at Intensity for 2 years. 1 full season and one year of midseason. We have had the best experience, the coaches and staff are amazing. Our experience has been so positive and I would recommend Intensity for anyone wanting to join Cheer or someone who is looking for tumbling. My daughter loves it and we are so greatful for the family we have gained from Intensity.

Our family has three athletes at the gym ranging from cheer basics, prep team and limited elite team. All of our girls have thrived and grown in their skills. In our experience so far we have done tumbling, flying, flex & competitive cheer. The gym has so many options to help your athletes grow with the classes & clinics that are offered as well as privates. We love the gym, coaches and friends that have been created through our time at the gym highly recommend!

This will be our third year at Intensity and have and have been pleased with the coaching, communication, and a focus on developing skills both on and off the mat make this cheer gym stand out. The owner has made strides to have open communication and we couldn’t be more grateful. We’re thrilled with the progress and growth our athlete has experienced here!

Intensity Athletics has been great!!! This is my daughters first year attending tumbling classes and she is loving it and making progress. I love the energy of the little girls who come to their practices and the moms being involved. Such a lovely environment. The coaches are fantastic. My daughter tells me, she enjoys it and she loves when coaches encourage her and help her in the areas where she needs improvement. Overall, very happy with being part of Intensity Athletic!

We started cheer at Intensity when my daughter was 4 years old. She just turned 6 and this is her third season and she LOVES cheer - she has grown 3 levels in her tumbling skills in just 2 years!
Her team the “Sparks” are like family and she is excited everyday to go to the gym;)
The coaches, (especially Coach Janelle) are all wonderful. If you are looking to really grow your athletes tumbling skills and become part of a true team - this is your gym!

This gym builds champions. The focus on excellence is unparalleled. The gym’s mission is integrated into every class and every practice. The gym owner is an amazing human being with an expertise in child development. This gym teaches core values, perseverance and mental toughness. I could not give Intensity a higher rating.

We have been with the gym going on our 3rd season of elite cheer and absolutely love it! We love the growth our daughter has had and the confidence she’s built throughout the process. We would recommend everyone we know to come take tumbling or even join a cheer team at intensity!!
We also love how involved the coaches/staff are with the parents and the athletes as well.

Our family has been apart of intensity for the last 4 years. We started all star cheer with no experience. She immediately fell in love with cheer and the intensity family. I highly recommend Intensity Athletics for anyone looking to dive into cheerleading or enhance their skills. The coaches are incredibly knowledgeable and passionate, providing personalized attention to help each athlete reach their full potential. The positive and energetic environment fosters both skill development and teamwork. Whether you’re a beginner or an advanced cheerleader, Intensity Athletics is the place to be. My experience here has been outstanding, and i’ve seen remarkable progress in my daughters confidence and personal development. If you’re considering a cheer gym, this is definitely the place to go!

This is our third year at intensity. The personal growth and confidence I have seen in my girls brings me to literal tears. Their confidence and even the structure the gym provides for their athletes has made a huge difference even in our home life. I can’t rave about Coach Janelle and Coach Morgan enough. My girls also love tumbling privates with Mercedes!

The Mid Season and Fall performance teams both were disorganized and very unprofessional. The girls barely knew the routine and never ended up getting music as they were promised by the coaches. One of the two competitions we were supposed to compete never was confirmed and we were not told until two weeks prior to the event after people had taken off work and made plans for being in LA. Then a virtual competition was substituted for the actual event which the girls were not even given the results of and we are not even sure actually existed or if it was just a ploy to pacify angry parents over the cancellation of half of the events supposed to take place.

We love Intensity! This will be our 5th season and we love it. My kids live in the gym and when they’re not there, they’re always asking when they can go back. Honestly, I never thought of cheer as a sport. However, my kids started at intensity in 2018 w tiny tot classes and mommy and me classes. They grew in their passion for the sport and the culture.
I’m thankful Intensity, staff, coaches and ownership took the time to help my Kids build their passions.
Intensity has an amazing culture of family and support. This is all star cheer and we are intensity! 💕⚡️

I love Intensity all stars, I have been cheering with them since the opened the gym and I feel like Intensity has grown rapidly over the years I have been competing with them. The coaching staff is amazing, i can tell that they have put all of their heart into the teams they are coaching. My skill has grown because of the training I have recieved. The gym is very family oriented, everyone in the gym is like a family. The owners are doing everything they can to grow and improve with their athletes, I am very pleased with my decision to join Intensity, as before I thought I would max out at pop warner and then my cheer career would be over. Intensity is a home for me. At competitions, the whole gym including parents are cheering on every team and after each performance you can expect nothing but support and encouragement from everyone. Intensity athletes and coaches know sportsmanship. We have been taught to never talk bad on other gyms, only to encourage. We cheer for the love of the sport!

I have been with Intensity All Stars for two years now. At first it was just a weekly tumbling class and now I'm on an awesome mid-season team. The staff here has always made me feel welcome, encouraged me, and helped me have a great time. I'm proud to say I cheer at Intensity All Stars. Everyone has a great bond and I am so excited for what the next seasons will have in store for me. I have no doubt in my mind that this is the place for everyone to start all star cheer. It is inexpensive and is a great environment for everyone. The coaches are awesome and work so hard to help you and your team succeed. Also, the owners work so hard to make sure you have a great time at the gym. Competitions are so much fun with this gym too. Having all the parents and every team come up for every single team and yelling so loud, giving us confidence and supporting each other just makes everything worth while. I'm so happy to be here. The friends and memories I have made are indescribable. I can't imagine myself anywhere else. Intensity All Stars is the place to be.

i can honestly say that i love intensity. i have been to a couple gyms in the area and can really say that i feel welcomed and part of the family there. i have been going to intensity for about 3 years now doing things from tumbling classes to finally starting my first season on their mid season team. the coaching staff and owners are wonderful and devoted to making intensity the best, and anything said to the contrary is simply inaccurate. if your looking to enroll your child in all star cheer i definitely say go to intensity first. save the time you would be wasting at other gyms.
@carlosbedolla i would love to hear why you believe that the coaching staff is lazy.
