Wolverhampton Gymnastics Club

I would not recommend this club. Whilst some of the coaches are decent it's pot luck who you get put with. If you get put with a 'bad' one expect your child to be treated with no respect and spoken to like dirt. We pulled my daughter from the club when she started to become extremely distressed at the thought of going to the club despite loving gymnastics and doing her daily exercises at home. When I raised my concerns with the club regarding the treatment of the children not just my own it was dismissed as normal because of the amount of children that they have in a group. I have now taken my daughter elsewhere and it has taken a long time to rebuild her confidence due to the way she was made to feel but thanks to her new coaches who actually know how to nurture and encourage children we are on the right path. If you want your child to do gymnastics in a positive, healthy environment avoid this club!

Honestly disappointed in this place. My daughter was really excited to start gymnastics and had been waiting a long time on the waiting list. Staff sit around on the apparatus on their mobile phones. Children are made to head the warm ups for the other gymnasts while the staff sit around for half an hour laughing and occasionally throwing out demands. I understand some if the gymnasts are competitors, but honestly they way that they are spoken to by a couple of the staff is disgusting. I never felt comfortable leaving my child there in case she was treated poorly by them. Don't waste your money on this place

Both my daughters have trained here. One competed the other did the recreational classes. They have lovely facilities and gymnastics really brings out the character and tenacity in a child that stands them in good stead for adulthood. If you have tried smaller gymnastics clubs before this club makes a good stepping stone to introduce your child to more challenging character building opportunities. There are larger clubs with a greater range of equipment and training regimes but none are as local as Wolverhampton Gymnastics Club. And to be honest in the local area no other gymnastics club is as well equipped as this Wton Gym and getting medals in competitions.

lots of things have changed over the past couple of years in the gymnastics club. we are currently following a new programme. we have junior coaches which are assisted by a fully qualified coaches to each gymnastics group. please do not let the OLD reviews put you off the club. please come and see for yourself.

You pay a lot of money for other kids to teach them and I bet they don’t get paid. I know my daughter wouldn’t start and become a brilliant gymnast straight away but she’s been going for nearly a year and I’ve heard no feedback from any teacher or even a letter to say how’s shes getting on I know nothing and she hasn’t progressed from doing stretches, jumps and cartwheels nothing new is introduced to them nothing harder. The older ones just sit around on thier phones laughing and pointing instructions to the younger kids teaching my daughter and the other girls. One guy who’s always in a tracksuit in his early 20’s has got a right bad attitude seen him raise his voice a few times at kids and it wasn’t pleasant to watch. There are some amazing young gymnasts I see practising while i sit through an hour and 15 minutes of my daughter doing stretches and they seem to be the only ones who get attention and feedback from the main trainers. This place needs to change and I wouldn’t recommend anyone waste thier money if you think your child has a talent then travel somewhere else.

My daughter had been a member for 18 months... after 18 months they still have no idea of her name... the communication is non existent! There’s noway to communicate online only via a mobile number which it’s a hop and a catch that someone will answer! I think this gym is good for children to keep fit and do recreational gymnastics but that’s it. I feel I have wasted so much money and so much time in her attending this gym.

I am in absolute shock at the aggressive behaviour I was greeted with here. After having a mix up in collection times I was running a few minutes late picking my niece up, I was very apologetic to the gentlemen who greeted me on entrance of the the club. As I explained and apologised I was greeted by another member of staff who was extremely rude and shouted at me telling me she can call social services! I calmly stated well that's a little extreme and could you please stop shouting at me. This particular member of staff was very aggressive and very unprofessional in her manner. I'm very disappointed as iv heard good reviews about this club however that member of staff left me concerned as to wether my niece should go back. After this particular member of staff had finished shouting the gentlemen who spoke to me looked visibly embarrassed by the other member of staffs behaviour, he was very polite and understanding. The experience I had was very unpleasant.

Please do not send your child to this club, it's terrible. I've just witnessed a small child cry throughout the lesson and my daughter told me that Lexi cries every week - it broke my heart to see this. I'm pulling my child from this club as it has a lot to desire, not good enough for my child. I would give zero stars if I could.
