I took my 2 1/2 year old grandson here for open gym and he loved it. He didn't want to leave and is asking to go back again already. They do a 5 minute warm up as a group before releasing them for open gym. I found it unnecessary but worth it for the play time.

My daughter has been twice to the toddler class and absolutely loves it! They do a great job of introducing young kids to moving their bodies in a safe environment.

Terrible experience, the staff is not trained well enough to deal with kids under 5. Poor management and coaching, we left after only a few months due to the coaches being dishonest and hiding behind a "parents complaint" instead of coaching. After 3 months we were told our child would not be allowed back to the class "unless things changed" becuase of a parent complaint. No warning, no trying to work with a 3 year old, just dismissed them. This is after over a month of our child being praised and told he was doing so good. Someome is always in attendance when he was there, and we truly cannot understand what could have possibly upset another parent. Also we are in the room with all of those parents together watching our kids and never was any concern shown during or after class. They threaten to dismiss our child by email instead of adressing the issues with each parent and coaching. They hide behind the word "safety" but its really about a parent complaint. My child was jumped on in a foam pit, knocked off balance beams, fell off a slide because kids piled up at the bottom, cut in line, etc. All normal 3 and 4yrl stuff. We taught him that it's ok if teammates make mistakes, we didnt complain becuase hey its 3 year olds on their first team, they should learn from mistakes, have empathy, learn to help a teammate up and say sorry. They only used the word Safety after a complaint before that our child was "doing amazing". So note to future parents, complain early and often because otherwise your child will be singled out by which ever parent was upset.
We brought our business to a different gym, with better pricing and staff far more experienced with toddlers.

Wasn’t a good fit for my daughter. The class required things that were not developmentally appropriate for a 2 year old. The coach also came up and picked up my daughter a few times without her permission. I really try to teach my daughter that her body is not for others to touch without permission and it made me a bit uncomfortable. I also felt like there was a push towards training toddlers to be future professional gymnasts instead of just embracing letting them have fun and move their bodies. It was not what I was looking for in a 2 year old gymnastics class.

My son had his first class today and it was incredible. Coach Paul is so friendly and personable. My son does not warm up to new people easily and halfway through the class was running up to coach Paul to say β€œI did it!” Everything was really well ran and there was space for my son to explore and get comfortable with no pressure. I was shocked how much he participated right away considering he typically likes to watch for a while before joining in on things. So excited for what the future holds.

My two year old daughter looks forward to coming to Gymnastics every week. Coach Paul is amazing with the kids, very energetic, funny, extremely patient (which is amazing quality to have while working with toddlers) and all around a great person. It takes my daughter a while to warm up to new people . She's extremely shy but she loves Coach Paul and constantly wants to work with him. I have no complaints!

My grand daughters both started gymnastics at age 3. It has not only taught them many wonderful gymnastic skills, but what i call life lessons. Dedication, hard work, discipline and determination pay off. Facing your fears and over coming them. Knowing when to listen and when to speak up. Acceptiing a good score as gracefully as a bad one. Supporting your team mates and putting the team first above self. Respect for ones coaches and for each other! Life lessons learned while having fun!

My daughter loves coming to her Second Flight gymnastics class each week! She found her brave at gymnastics. We are so pleased with what she is learning and how much fun she has. Looking forward to having her birthday party at Maine Academy!!

Great viewing areas for parents. Excellently trained coaching staff. Easy parent portal for enrollments. Fun and positive environment. We love going to open gym, on a rainy Friday night! Boys and girls competitive teams available, too.

Our experience started out great, my son is 4 and has autism and he’s non verbal. I explained all this to them when we started and the coaches were very accommodating allowing myself and my husband to be involved in the sessions as to help with communication and getting a routine for him.
Going into summer classes we signed my son up for the smallest class which was only 2 students and he happens to be the only one there so he did great with the coach. Half way thru a new coach came so I explained a few things and she was fine with me being involved when needed. When we went down to next part of class in the main gym another coach abruptly and very rudely started parents were not allowed in gym. I explained the situation and she said for me to show his coach how to communicate which we were already doing. After that mason jumped into foam pit, he’s 4 who wouldn’t? And she rudely said to his coach take him upstairs! Her behavior was disgusting and unprofessional and that situation could have easily been handled differently.
I gave 3 stars due to the fact that the other coach’s were amazing and when I spoke with main office they contacted the owner who then gave me a refund and said they would speak to the coach. Unfortunately one bad apple has the ability to ruin it and she is a terrible model of how a coach should interact with students or parents!
