Pacific West Gymnastics

I want to share my disappointing experience with what I can only describe as the worst gymnastics facility we have ever encountered. I have two daughters, aged 6 and 8, and we decided to enroll them in gymnastics classes here in Pacific West Gymnastics, hoping to see them develop their skills and gain confidence in their abilities. Since September 1, 2023, we have been attending classes once a week, and after 13 long months, I am disheartened to report that neither of my daughters has achieved any level advancement. Despite our consistent attendance and the effort we have put into this, it feels as though we have not made any progress at all. The instruction seems lackluster, and the environment is not as encouraging or supportive as we had hoped. This experience has been incredibly frustrating for both me and my daughters, who were excited about learning gymnastics but are now feeling disheartened. Given our experience, I cannot recommend this facility to anyone. It has proven to be a waste of our time, money, and effort, and I truly believe that there are better options out there for aspiring young gymnasts. If you are considering enrolling your children in gymnastics, I urge you to look elsewhere for a more nurturing and effective program.

One Star Disappointed with Pacific West Gymnastics I enrolled my child at Pacific West Gymnastics with high hopes for a fun and enriching experience. Unfortunately, my expectations were not met. A major issue is the constant presence of parents within the gym. The designated viewing area is often empty while parents crowd the gym floor, distracting both children and instructors. This creates a chaotic environment that hinders the learning process. Additionally, I've observed that the instructors seem overwhelmed, often struggling to give individual attention to each child. With so many distractions, it's difficult for them to effectively teach and supervise. I believe Pacific West Gymnastics has the potential to be a great facility, but it needs to prioritize a safer and more focused learning environment by enforcing the parent viewing policy and providing adequate staffing.

I signed up to 'try out' the Fremont location enrolling my 6 year old granddaughter for tumbling. I think if the instructor was a little more involved in the class and talked less to her colleague my granddaughter might have been more interested in the classes. We ended up leaving early because my granddaughter was crying and she didn't want to do tumbling any longer. I was sad that she didn't like it.

Last year, my daughter had a very negative experience during tryouts at this gym. The coach was extremely rude, causing my daughter distress to the point where she almost cried. As a result, we withdrew her from further classes here. Fortunately, we found a different gymnastics school where she not only felt supported but also excelled. This year, she was selected in Xcel tryouts. Would not recommend this gym based on our experience.

Awesome facility! Very clean! The coaches are wonderful with the kids!
