Randolph Gymnastics

After being with this gym for long time I thought about trying a different place. After I toik my daughter somewheres else I found that I can’t get the same level of cosching skills elsewhere. I will continue to being my daughter to here for lesson with Coach Kenny he is very skilled and one of the best coach in the area.

After trying gym after gym, I have finally found a home for my cheerleader to practice her tumbling. Their advanced tumbling class is AMAZING!! Not only was I impressed with the size of the facility, but the cleanliness as well. It is very clear that this facility takes cleaning, and sterilization seriously. Before leaving class, each child uses hand sanitizer. The lobby is always very clean and welcoming! Highly recommend.

This facility is sadly being led astray by incompetent ownership. The class coaches are very good. The front desk/admin staff are helpful and have good intentions. They throw decent birthday parties. Their Open Gym events are getting to be overcrowded and dangerous. In February, approximately 40 girls on one of the Xcel competitive teams and their coaches were suddenly evicted from Randolph Gymnastics during the competition season. The owner's decision directly impacted the girls and their families. This decision was unacceptable. The girls were hurt, confused, and unsure what to do next. The parents and the coaches did they best they could to finish out the season without any support from Randolph Gymnastics. The Xcel Bronze team set a state record in March with absolutely no acknowledgement from the facility. Randolph Gymnastics is a decent facility for classes and birthday parties. If your child wants to be a competitive gymnast, there are several other places in the area that are better suited and much more supportive.

Unfortunately after two good years at this gym, I am pulling my daughter out and feel the need to warn other parents that the place is going downhill and you should carefully monitor your children’s classes to make sure they are safe. We started my daughter here when she was 3 years old and went religiously for over two years, always with the same coach, Julian, who was absolutely amazing. We also did several jumping beans and even had my daughter’s birthday party here. We were all about Randolph gymnastics and recommended it to so many. Several weeks ago, Julian abruptly left. We were not told why and only notified the day before my daughter’s weekly class. Since then, it’s been awful. At first I thought the new teacher just needed to adjust to the class and get used to the age group but every week I become increasingly concerned that the children are not safe. The new coach has no control over the class (she only has 4 children in the class) - they spend the entire time running and jumping around - complete chaos. There is no structure at all and she only supervises one at a time. She’ll set them up in stations only to turn her back on the majority of the class and focus on one student doing one thing. This means five year olds with no real skills or techniques are trying to do back walk overs and free handstands (no wall) completely alone and not even supervised. Today I watched a girl injure her back and lay in pain and the coach never even noticed. I also watched another girl hit, slap and shake my child repeatedly while my child told her to stop and tried to get away from her. Coach never noticed. Last week, I looked Away for a second, looked back and my child (5 years old) was gone. I searched The entire gym for her in a panic only to find her in the office crying. The coach had sent her to leave the floor and walk alone to the office, without ever attempting to tell me even though I was Upstairs watching the class the entire time, because she had a belly ache. When I found her the office said they were trying to call me on the phone? I told them calmly then that I was very uncomfortable and that the coach should have alerted me before letting my daughter leave the floor. The office is right by the front door and there are a half dozen classes happening at once, so the lobby is jammed with people coming and going - anything could have happened. The office was apologetic then and told me it wouldnt happen again. Then just a week later, I watched my daughters class go with the coach for a water break and then watched the coach return to the floor with absolutely no children with her. I was Completely confused and watched her wander around the floor alone for a minute before running downstairs in search of my daughter, who was nowhere to be found then when I went into the office demanding to know where my daughter was, their response was “you can’t find her again?’” THEN the coach comes over and says her whole class went to the bathroom? A class full of five year old girls are allowed to walk to a public bathroom that adults use, with multiple stalls, right next to the front entrance, ALONE and not a single parent was alerted, not a single staff member checked on them or made sure they were ok and the office, who sits right next to the bathroom had NO IDEA. In two seconds one of those children could have gone missing and the coach and office had no good excuses what so ever and wouldn’t tell me the name of or the contact information for the manager. It is so sad that they have now given me no choice but to withdraw my daughter, who loves gymnastics and has an aptitude for the sport, because I’m terrified for her safety. And for the price you pay (way more expensive than other gyms) that is just unacceptable. You all should be ashamed of yourselves and parents should be warned. Don’t come here if you want your child to learn and grow and definitely not if you have any safety expectations what so ever!

My 7 year old loves Randolph gym! We have been coming for about 2 years now. She has had a great experience with all of the instructors, but she especially love Coach Emily! They have all different coaches to pick from depending on who your child would gravitate for. They have great prices, are flexible with you as you can miss a day and make it up, and overall is just s great gym! I would definitely recommend to kids if all ages!!!
