Update 11/22/2025: DO NOT GO HERE

I hate that I have to write this, but if you are serious about your daughter's gymnastics future or if they have bigger aspirations, just skip this place. What used to be a welcoming, adventurous business has turned into nothing but drama, mainly initiated by Heidi herself. The things I have heard her say through word of mouth are shocking. The things I have heard her say in front of the girls is even more shocking. She should be a coach first, but her own selfish pride gets in her way. She really needs to take a step back and analyze what it is that Heidi wants for herself. We spent two years here which was, frankly, one year too many. Xcel Bronze was fun because Heidi actually COACHED the team. After that, something changed. She got in her own way and suddenly she just stopped coaching them any more. She has her favorites, but even that doesn't always last if you aren't willing to agree with her on everything, to include what is best for your own child. Heidi is petty and childish and expects you to never disagree with her. She has changed the entire team schedule, to include gymnastics organization (USAG -> NGA) in the middle of a season, robbing the team of a state event as they had it planned. This sort of shenanigans is unbecoming of a coach, especially one of her caliber. Just go somewhere else.

Our first meeting with Heidi said everything I needed to hear. She was extremely professional and most importantly she genuinely seemed to want what was best for the child she was teaching. After spending months at her gym, I can safely say that impression has only been reinforced. She is extremely fair to all of the girls she coaches. The ones that pay attention to her and strive to better often do so. There is seldom any selfishness from any of the girls she coaches because she is so fair. The girls are always so happy for each other when even one of them achieves something. 10/10 send your kid here if there's room.

We highly recommend Heidi’s Gym! She is a phenomenal teacher- teaching each kid at their individual level with both gymnastics and great character! She gives beyond 110% every single day, every single class to every single child… which is just unheard of in any sport/coach but she is the real deal. Both my daughters take class and my oldest had the opportunity to be on the competitive team this year, it’s been the best year of her life. Heidi has prepared her for competition and her team scores the best in the area… so you don’t need a big gym to be the best- it’s the coaches(Heidi & Savannah) and their dedication to the kids. I wouldn’t want my children anywhere else. Heidi & Savannah are absolute gems and we are so thankful for them! The positive atmosphere, the love and great work ethic they help instill in my children is priceless.

I cannot say enough about Heidi and her coaching/teaching abilities, her professionalism, and her love for all of her students. My daughter took gymnastics under her expertise guidance for many years. Heidi not only meets each child where they are and encourages them to grow in their gymnastics ability, but also fosters confidence and encourages them to be a light in this world.

My daughter loves coming here for gymnastics. Coaches Heidi and Savannah teach the fundamentals so well that you can tell which gymnasts are hers. It is always a positive environment, and my daughter always leaves with high spirits and tired out. I love this gym and Coach Heidi.

My daughter (10) has been taking gymnastics from Ms. Heidi for 5+ years. When we first came to Ms. Heidi she couldn’t even do a cartwheel. Now she is competing at the Xcel Silver level. Heidi is the most caring and compassionate coach! She knows her gymnasts well, and coaches to each of their individual personalities. Heidi works tirelessly for her gymnasts and gives her 110% effort and dedication to this sport. Our family is blessed to know and work with Ms. Heidi.

She offers a variety of classes for all ages/abilities/needs and meets each student where they are. We are beyond grateful we crossed paths with her as we are two years into an amazing experience for our daughter. Heidi clearly LOVES what she does and that has an endless positive impact on her students and families. She and her daughter are excellent role models demonstrating true character!

In a world where your children are bombarded with negative influences, Heidi de la Rocha is a bright light of positive energy. Way beyond her excellent technique and amazing teaching of gymnastics, she (more importantly) will help your child find determination, strength of character, and trust with a team. I give her the highest recommendation. Her patience and support helped my daughter overcome the fears holding her back from skills necessary for her chosen sport, and now she performs with a top college program. THANK YOU, Miss Heidi!

Heidi’s was my daughter’s first gymnastics experience nearly 15 years ago. Heidi was kind, patient, knowledgeable, and made the whole experience fun while helping the kids develop balance, body awareness, strength, and confidence. My daughter went on to compete in gymnastics for several years, and is now a competitive equestrian vaulter. Heidi’s laid the foundation for a lifetime of strength, agility, and athleticism, and we are so grateful our daughter had such a positive start to her journey.

Heidi is the best gymnastics coach ever! My daughter had the fortune to start classes when she was in kindergarten, since then she has grown not only in gymnastics skills, but also in self confidence and assertiveness. Miss Heidi and coach Savannah are excellent human beings and teach with passion and love. We’ll be forever grateful to have met them.

My daughter recently transitioned from a competitive team at another gym to Heidi’s team and we love it so much. Heidi is such a great role model for my daughter & for the other gymnasts, teaching them to work hard, go after their dreams, be courageous, and use the gifts God gave them. Additionally, Heidi was a successful college gymnast and has ample knowledge on the skills and how to teach them. Your money is well spent here. Heidi very obviously loves what she does and is doing it because she loves it. Heidi’s daughter, Savannah, is the only other employee and she demonstrates great patience with the gymnasts. She encourages them and also has fun with them. Heidi’s gym may be small, but that does not negatively impact any part of the experience. My family is forever grateful for the opportunity that my daughter was/is given here.

Heidi is absolutely amazing. She is an extremely hard-working, talented instructor that is passionate about gymnastics and about helping children reach their goals. She encourages healthy life mindsets and runs a business guided by Christian values and principles. Heidi teaches proper technique and coaches children to be the most beautiful and confident gymnasts they can be. It is clear that Heidi does this job because she loves it. We are so thankful to have met her following a bad experience at a larger gym. We love that she offers placement on competitive teams as this is an interest for our daughter.

Heidi is an amazing teacher. I highly recommend her! My daughter loves her! We have only been there twice and my daughter tells me every day that she misses Ms Heidi and can’t wait for her next class. She is very hands on. She demonstrates and shows the girls how to do the different tasks she wants them to preform. She gives them positive reinforcement and shows them love and passion. I must say that I would highly recommend her to any of the other places in the area. We visit several other places and we like the one on one attention that Heidi gives.

My daughter started taking gymnastics from Miss Heidi when she was 6 years old. Miss Heidi is extremely gifted and talented. Her love and compassion for children are just a few of the many qualities that we love about her. She has encouraged my daughter to try new things and she has helped my daughter gain strength and confidence in herself in a non-competitive atmosphere. My daughter has been truly blessed by Miss Heidi and her staff.

I had my daughter with Heidi for over two years. Heidi and her daughter provide a very encouraging atmosphere where all of the students are able to focus on their own progress and receive very tailored, personal instruction. Heidi is not only a professional with her personal gymnastics experience, but she is also a professional in the classes and treats every student and parent with respect. Heidi taught my daughter so much in our time there and then sent us on our way to compete on a competitive gymnastics team. My daughter's fundamentals and more complicated skills were immediately complimented at the new place, which is a direct reflection of Heidi's instruction. I always recommend parents to bring their children to Heidi's because there is no better place in Knoxville!!

Heidi has been teaching my daughter for 6 years, since she was 2. My girl was developmentally delayed and she first brought her to normal before opening the door to potentially excelling. This is a warm, affirming, and loving environment that teaches to a diversity of ages, skills and aptitudes. I think one secret to her success is her prior skill and continued ability as a gymnast that allows her to show and coach moves in an appropriate and productive way.

Ms. Heidi's is amazing. When my daughter turned three she was interested in gymnastics and I wanted to find a place for her to interact with other kids, learn to follow directions and to just get some energy out. I looked around at different programs but many were competitive style bigger gyms and I knew that my shy daughter would not thrive there. We tried Ms. Heidi's and fell in love. It was perfect. Heidi is patient and caring toward all of the kids and places each child in the perfect class for their skill level and age. She teaches them gymnastic skills no matter their physical ability. My daughter has an eye condition which causes her to have trouble with balance and the training she received was perfect for her. When she started at Ms. Heidi's she didn't have the strength to do a sit up. My daughter never has possessed the physical ability to become a competitive gymnast but the strength and conditioning she received from Heidi's class allowed her to participate in other sports and soccer at a competitive level. She took a weekly class at Ms Heidi's well into her middle school years. She is a strong and confident young lady and I credit a lot of this to Ms. Heidi's Musical Gym. (By the way, she eventually was even able to do a back handspring!)

My daughter started going to Heidi's Gym when she was 2 1/2, as a means of helping with motor skills and coordination, and as a basis for any future sports she might be interested in. She fell in love with both the sport and (especially) Ms. Heidi! She is now 9, and still loves it. Heidi's Gym is not competitive. It is a fun, relaxed environment in which children of all ages and skill levels can improve their physical awareness. Heidi, and her daughter Savannah, are both remarkably patient with the students. Heidi has a gift for being able to break down movements and explain them to children in a way they can understand, and then to build upon those achievements in a coherent way. If, at some point, my daughter decides to switch to a competition-oriented gym, it will be with a heavy heart, but a sound gymnastics foundation.

I honestly cannot say enough good things about Heidi, her staff, & her gym. They are so family friendly, professional, fun, compassionate, & passionate. They teach with positive reinforcement, & because they're not oversized, the students get a lot of 1 on 1 time. A huge bonus with that is, even though students are in a class with other students, Heidi & her staff cater to the students individually, according to their level of ability. It's not a one size fits all. They advance the students at the appropriate rate for each one of them, & the children are never ever pushed or forced to do anything they're not comfortable with. I must say this is incredibly beneficial to the students, as they don't have to see fellow classmates being scared or pushed harder than what they should be, then feeding off of each other. I have no doubt that it correlates to less injuries or incidents, & not surprisingly, I never saw anything like that happen at Heidi's. My daughter was in her homeschool class & we could not have been happier. We had been to other gyms in the area & couldn't find anywhere in which we were satisfied with, for various reasons. (A prime example being that my daughter spent 9 months in a beginning tumbling class elsewhere, & left without even being taught how to properly do a cartwheel. At Heidi's, she was taught & able to do an unassisted back handspring within 4 months.) Heidi's is far more than we ever expected, so don't let the size of her gym fool or deter you. I SO wish we had found her gym sooner. If you want a true gymnastics education for your child, look no further!

Our little girl had trouble listening and following directions. A professional recommended Miss Heidi and they were right. Miss Heidi immediately recognized our little girl's joyous spirit and worked very patiently with her. In the last year and a half, our little girl improved so much she was able to fit right in with the other students. Other student's mothers even noticed how much she had improved under Miss Heidi and Miss Savannah. Miss Heidi's program is not competitive. She takes each child right where they are and works with them not in competition with other children but to improve themselves. Miss Heidi and the whole program is amazing, and I have recommended it to many people. We are so lucky to have her in Knoxville!!!

We did a trial class, and decided it was too competitive for our young daughter. The children go through drills/courses, and sing songs in between while equipment set up is changed. There was a lot of grabbing of wrists and pulling during instruction. The children who had been in class awhile seemed to know the routines and follow directions very well.
