Facility and Staff
The facility at Altadore Gymnastics Center has been praised for its modernization and size, with one reviewer calling it "top class" and another mentioning the "epic" new foam pit. The staff has also received positive comments, with one reviewer mentioning that the coaches are liked by their daughter.
Assessment and Communication Issues
However, several reviewers have expressed frustration and disappointment with the assessment process and communication from the staff. One reviewer mentioned that their daughter was initially assessed at a lower level than expected, and despite requesting reassessment, they were told they were not a good fit for the gym due to a negative Google review. Another reviewer had a similar experience, receiving an excellent assessment from a supervisor, but being labeled as a "difficult person" and banned from future enrollment due to their Google review.
Unprofessional Conduct
Some reviewers have reported experiencing unprofessional conduct from specific staff members, including disrespect, hostility, and even being told to "shut up". The atmosphere at the gym has been described as tense and uncomfortable, with staff members interrupting activities and criticizing performance. One reviewer was ultimately asked to leave without any meaningful resolution or apology.
Inflexibility and Safety Concerns
Another issue raised by reviewers is the inflexibility of the gym, with one reviewer being turned away despite there being space available. There are also concerns about the safety and well-being of young attendees, with some reviewers raising questions about the patience and consideration of staff members for children acting their age.
