The guy who owns this place is nice enough, the older females who coach gymnastics are the rudest witches ever, the younger staff with the exception of this young Caucasian guy are nice, he treats kids like they are in boot camp. They don't sanitize anything, parents are allowed to bring sick kids in, myself and my 2 kids borh have the flu after this little red haired kid was sneezing all over everyone and everything and, one other kid was coughing all over everyone. Parents need to keep your sick kids home and you guys need to learn to use disinfectant and disinfecting wipes. We won't return and I'm telling everyone to look at other places because your sign may say elite, but there is nothing elite about this place.

I’m very thankful that Lake Murray Gymnastics offers an all-boys class, which was the main reason we switched to this gym. My 6-year-old son loves gymnastics and shows natural talent, so we were hopeful about the opportunity to eventually try out for the competitive team.

The boys move through approximately five stations during their hour-long class. The structure is generally the same each time, but there’s usually a different instructor each week. As a parent, I’d prefer more consistency, especially for younger kids who thrive on routine.

One of our concerns has been the lack of clear communication. We took the summer off, and I haven’t received any email updates regarding team tryouts or next steps. From talking with other parents, it seems tryouts are typically in June, but clearer, more proactive communication from the gym would be appreciated.

The gym itself has a strong, sweaty odor, especially compared to other facilities we’ve visited, which makes the atmosphere a bit less inviting. While there is a viewing area for parents, it can be difficult to watch closely since multiple classes are happening at once and sometimes far from view.

I would also love to receive more feedback from instructors about how my son is progressing and what he can work on at home. At times, I’ve noticed some children acting out or wandering, and not all instructors seem to correct the behavior, which can distract kids who are trying to focus.

Overall, we appreciate that this gym offers a boys program and the potential path to competition, but we’re still deciding whether the financial and structural aspects make it the right long-term fit for us right now.

Well equipped gym with a jolly and a very helpful crowd. Irrespective of your skill level, you'll always have some help around to learn new skills..

We had a birthday party this past weekend and we were unfortunately disappointed. We were so excited because we’ve been to the gym before and it’s very nice , well our party was scheduled to start at 1pm, I walked in at 12:45 to set up and the gym was dark and I saw nobody. So I proceeded to set up and the women walked out of the gym at 12:50ish and didn’t even say anything to me , she just stood and stared at me. At 1:03 , my daughter asked if she could go in the gym since our time had started and she literally said “No.” My husband and I just looked at each other and I doubled checked the time and we just stood there confused. She opened it a few minutes later , but still just weird. Our party was due to last until 2:30 , when we started opening presents at 2:05 she went ahead and locked the gym up at 2:10 , and when the kids asked to play while my daughter opened presents she told them no. Sorry but if im paying over $200 to be in the gym it better be open the whole duration of the party. Then when I went to thank her , all she said was “so who’s paying”. Just really nasty and pushy. Just thought I’d share my not so great experience incase you’re thinking about renting for your child’s party . You will pay a lot and not get let in even when it’s your time , and get pushed out early. And overall it just felt awkward to be there with how nasty she was.

We have enjoyed watching our daughter love going to the preschool gymnastics class. Her instructors have always been the nicest and understanding. She always leaves with a smile! Their practice schedule and tuition fees are straightforward, just like the information they send out to parents. We also really enjoy the format of their spring show. It is easy to join and less stressful than other shows we've attended. We look forward to our daughter continuing to have fun learning gymnastics here 😁🤸‍♀️

I highly recommend this gym. We did private lessons and have done group lessons. The staff is so friendly and skilled. My daughter's private coach was so personable and kind.

We’ve been back and forth between two other gyms for the past two years. We never wanted to make the drive all the way over to Lake Murray. After getting tired of paying monthly for sub par programs, we decided to give this gym a try. I wish we had been here from the beginning!! Lake Murray Gymnastics is amazing and we’ve found our forever gym. They challenge our kids while encouraging them and coaching them; giving them what they need to learn and succeed. I’ve already seen so much improvement in both of my kiddos in just four weeks, and they love it!!

If I could give this place more stars I would. We did the playful parenting once a week over the summer. From day 1 they treated us like they knew us and really made us feel comfortable. I also want to add my son wears braces on his feet due to a corrected club foot from birth and attends various therapies and he was able to do everything and feel like he was just like all the other kids. The teachers and staff were so positive and uplifting. They always told him what a good job he was doing. This meant so much to me to see my child getting treated like the other kids and too see him thriving and happy.

I would definitely recommend this place and we will be coming back next year.

Both of my kids absolutely love LMG and their coaches!
Ms. Tara is just the sweetest human being ever.
Ms. Cristina makes you feel like part of the family and Mr. Brian took my 4 year-old daughter gymnastics to another level (in my humble opinion).
They are all great and we look forward to continue going there for many years to come.

Amazing school. I've been here for years. Brian the manager is so friendly and the coaches ate bad to the bone. If you have children thinking about joining gymnastics, this is the place to be.

Left a bad taste in my mouth and this was my first visit. After inquiring about my son joining the all boys class, I was told that it would be Wednesday at 5:30. I should have noticed the red flag when I was told to just show up for class; my email address or no other vital information was requested to preregister as I've experienced with other gyms. When we get there to check in for the all boys class at 5:30, the lady up front didn't ask any questions, and wrote me a slip to give to the teacher when class starts with the 5:30 time listed (with my son's name spelled wrong). So at about 5:40 and after my son asks when he starts, I asked another parent there how the process works for class; she was about the friendliest one anyway. She took it upon herself to ask "the receptionist" about the class and even asked the teacher I spoke with, who had already started another class. The parent comes back out to tell me that the class was actually from 4:30 to 5:30. Meanwhile, the receptionist is giving me a blank stare even though she sees that I'm frustrated when I'm explaining what I was told; she even mentioned that she doesn't work on Wednesdays and doesn't know what's going on ( no excuse and doesn't have anything to do with me). I then walk down to the class to see if my son could join another class and make it worth our 45 minute trip. When I get to the door, the teacher peeps around and gives a "smile" but never apologizes or doesn't even acknowledge that there has been a misunderstanding. As a matter of fact, the parents apologized more than the staff! Smh...I call back once I leave after not being okay with the apologies from the parents, who were not responsible, and the mediocre apology from the receptionist, and request to speak with the owner. All I can say is that I have not received a return call after calling twice. These guys obviously take pride in disappointing children who come for a trial class and are not conscious of first impressions. My son had been geared up all week to attend after we got recs from two different gyms who did not have a program that we are looking for. It would have been considerate to at least have someone speak with me directly regarding the error, but maybe they feel they're receiving enough income already to worry about one person. Remember, word of mouth travels a long way-THEIR LOSS!

My daughter has had a great experience at LMG! My son also had a lot of fun but once he got a little older, it seemed the actual instruction for boys wasn't as structured as it is for girls. There are a lot of kids in one room and it can get a little confusing watching, but the girls don't seem to mind. The prices a reasonable especially for more than one child and more than one class; they offer nice packages.
