I take my toddler to the Tiny Tot class. She absolutely loves it, tons of space to play and explore. The teacher, Kara, is wonderful and my daughter has quickly warmed up to her (which says a lot- my daughter is pretty shy). Kara spends individual time checking in and interacting with each child in class which is great. Highly recommend!
so, yeah pretty cool place huh? we get it! gymnastics is super freaking cool! i loved it here! o yeah baby! learned how to tumble alright! so freaking cool baby! like, we love building them muschles!
Excellent place for toddlers and kids of all ages. Friendly environment for young children.
I’ve been taking my kids to hampshire Gymnastics sense 2019. The teachers are so kind and encouraging. My kids are both excited to go every week! We love it here.
My 4yo daughter attended summer camp here and now takes weekly classes, and she loves it. She also has sensory issues, and has been met with such kindness and understanding by the coaches on days she's not feeling her best. They seem to know exactly what to do to help each individual child do their best, while still keeping the class moving, and that's saying a lot with a class full of pre-schoolers with varying needs. I had worried she might have a hard time, but she loves it and wants to go every week even when I know it might be a hard day, and she always comes out happy and confident, so what more could a parent want? She primarily works with Annika and she has been so great with her.
Well it’s a pretty good gymnastics place but I worked my but of to be a gold and I was still a silver so I don’t think the saw my potential but they’re staff is nice and they push you to be your best so I recommend this place I went there for 5 yrs I think you should really consider coming here if you do Hampshire gymnastics will become your second home they treat you like family and overall the students are nice so 👍🏼
It's hard to be a well-liked business in a pandemic, but let's be honest, these folks are putting themselves in front of our wiggly children at a time when others just can't figure out how to do that safely. They are enforcing masks, communicating well about covid, and teaching my kiddo legit gymnastics skills. While I wish there were more boys in the classes (that's not their fault), my little guy is learning how to harness his energy, wait his turn, and be thoughtful about others. Those are all wins in my book.
I normally don't write reviews, but we were really disappointed with our child's experience here. They aren't teaching actual gymnastics skills, the kids (even those in the older classes) just tumble around and use the space like a giant playground/trampoline. The instructors are there to make sure everyone stays in line and takes turns, but besides that there's no teaching happening. If you want your child to learn acro skills, routines, and further their physical dexterity past a summersault and basic handstand this isn't the place and it's definitely not worth the price.
Really nice facility and staff, and the fact that they re operational during school vacations
If you want bullies as coaches then take your kids here
