Best Gymnastics Gym near Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

My child (3,5yo) has been attending PBG for six months, and even though the facility is quite far from us, it’s absolutely worth the drive. The program stands out for its solid structure and focus on developing athletic skills in a fun and engaging environment. The coaches are knowledgeable and create a supportive atmosphere, ensuring that each child feels encouraged and confident. The curriculum balances skill development with play, making it easy for kids to learn while enjoying themselves. I was really impressed how confident became my boy after attending PBG. I particularly appreciate the emphasis on foundational skills such as balance and coordination, which are major for future athletic pursuits. The progression is clear, allowing kids to see their improvements over time. Overall, this program is exceptional for fostering athletic development and a love for movement in young children. It’s a great investment in their physical and social growth! I should mention our best ever head of coaches - Fred Turoff who is well-known respected athlete and a head coach of gymnastic team in Temple university. This is a uniques opportunity to be motivated from one of the best athletes.

My son (11 year old) and my daughter (6 year old) trained with Fred and his coaches for four months. It was an incredible experience. Fred and his coaches make training a rewarding experience and my children have been able to improve their skills and learn new moves, while having fun in a very healthy and friendly environment. My son was part of the team and I was very happy that he was able to make friends, not just teammates. Coaches encourage young athletes to give their best without forcing them to push themselves too hard - that has certainly contributed to making them develop new abilities while also having fun! We are heading back to Brazil now and we will miss Fred, the other coaches and the friends we left at PBGG. Thank you all for the wonderful time we have had!

My son enjoys his classes here. He is someone who needs a lot of physical activity, and these classes provide rigorous exercise in a safe atmosphere. All the teachers are excellent and the facility is top notch.

My son has been training with PBG for 4 years. The coaches are rigorous, kind and fun. This gym puts young athletes first and is a truly special place for an active boy looking to grow both mentally and physically.

We love PBG! Since coming, my son has shown more discipline and he responds to his coaches so well! He has been more willing to try difficult tasks and because he's been so focused, he's already leveled up twice within one year!! 🤸

My family has had the most amazing experience at Flip Out. Both my kids (4 and 2.5) we have done all the classes their ages allow. The mommy and me class, the 45 minute drop off class for 3 and 4 year olds. But by far my favorite program they do is their creative camp preschool. It’s half days on T/Th and is perfect for stay at home moms that want to get their kid socialized and working on kindergarten readiness skills in a way that is affordable and won’t put you out of a job. It has allowed me to spend time with my younger daughter and get things done without being outnumbered. A few things make it stand out 1. They allow small potties if your kid is at those beginning stages of potty training and they help with potty training. 2. They are very inclusive my son has autism and with class ratio of 4:1 he isn’t requiring 1:1 support. 3. They are a $1.78/hr more than the cheapest daycare in Fishtown. 4. The kindergarten readiness skills and the small environment was so helpful over the last year that my son’s BCBA thought there would be more value to having Eli do Flip Out still and traditional Pre-k 3 days a week. I cannot recommend them highly enough. Particularly for families with ND children, my son is so welcome here.

Disappointed with our experience. Signed my daughter (5yr) after reading all the good reviews. Giving a 2 star because all the equipment was great. The Fun & Flips class started great until another coach started teaching. Very passive aggressive & assumed all the children knew the moves and terminology, & when the children couldn’t remember the next move the coach got easily frustrated and talked down. Especially my child which had zero experience. We only lasted 2 classes but that was more than enough for my child’s self confidence to go down. Sadly, the coach being inattentive and lack of instructions resulted my daughter to have a back & ankle injury. Understandably, kids get hurt practicing gymnastics as it is a difficult sport, however the injury could have been avoided especially this early on. Talked to the other parents who felt similarly with the coach being too hard on the kidos.

We’ve brought both of our children to Flip Out when they were toddlers and they each loved it. Awesome coaches, a welcoming gymnastics culture, and overall a truly bright spot in the community. Can’t recommend them enough!

My boy has been with Flip Out for 6 years. It's part of our weekly routine that we love. The facility and equipment are first-rate and the coaching top-notch. As a result of his training at Flip Out, he has not only developed life skills, including how to confidently approach any obstacle; but also he has learned amazing gymnastics skills, strength, and endurance.

Great place for kids to learn gymnastics. Professors are really good with kids and the kids have lots of fun. I wish it was a bit bigger so it was more comfortable to move around, but from a gymnastics perspective they have everything that kids need.

I was quite upset about the length of time for a child's celebration with food, cupcakes and gymnastics play. 90 minutes??? Really too short!! Impossible to have all aspects of the party at the location. We were all late as the directions and location are not ideal, then were told there were no drinks for the adults; no soda or anything for adults to drink. I had to walk 7 blocks to get drinks for adults and ice. The kids barely had time to play and it was time to do birthday cupcakes. They had to stop playing. Now, we did not have time to open any gifts. I was very disappointed about the 90 minutes! Never again for me at $750.00!! What a rip-off!!

I would never recommend having a party here to anyone. We had our daughter’s first birthday last weekend 9/29. When we arrived we were told that it wasn’t even fully setup yet. They then proceeded to tell us that “It’s ok, we can extend by 30 minutes.” That being said it was extended, but they wanted to charge us an additional $175. If we would have known that we wouldn’t have extended. I see it as an ethical issue. We settled on $125 additional charge on top of the $820 we already spent. Not to mention the dining area was in a hallway with no lighting. Might as well have been a dungeon. Got numerous complaints the staff was rude. At one point one of the girls was watching football on her phone will trying to do her job. I even still tipped them $20 each. Had I known I was getting charged extra (which they conveniently waited until everything was over to tell us as we were walking out) I never would have tipped. We thought it was expensive to begin with and even more so now. Isn’t worth nowhere near the money and would never recommend this to anyone.

We love taking our little guy to open play! You can see how much everyone loves working there. It’s a great place to let the little ones burn off some steam.

My daughter started gymnastics with Philly InMovement this fall after her old gym closed down due to structural issues in early 2022. I am beyond pleased that I chose to enroll her here. She is learning at a much faster rate than before and she really enjoys the activities they plan for her group during each session. I appreciate that the class sizes aren't too big because it allows her to get an adequate amount of turns to practice new techniques before the end of class. Small class sizes and multiple instructors also help to keep her focus since she's no longer waiting for a large group of students to go ahead of her each time as she did at her old gym. I definitely made the right choice by enrolling her here. I highly recommend this gym to anyone interested in signing their child up.

My son LOVES Philly in Movement! He has been taking classes for 2+ years, and he especially loves the warm, caring staff. I'm happy with the gender diversity, friendliness, and organized manner of the classes. They are very disciplined in a super-positive and supportive way. Thanks for a great experience! They have even been extra helpful when my son experienced some anxiety.
