There are many reasons why I would not ever recommend this facility. My experience goes back to Lansing, when they were under a different name. They relocated and renamed themselves because too many people in Lansing knew their true colors. Their business practices are less than desirable....telling parents and athletes negative stuff about other parents and athletes, letting people know who doesn't pay their bills on time. That is highly unprofessional. The way they treat athletes is very negative. When you sign a contract for a season, they think you are bound for life. If you give an honest review of your experience, they threaten you with their attorney even long after your contract is up. Current parents will say it's dumb to wait, but it is extremely intelligent. If you are outside of your season contract, you have freedom of speech by law and can say whatever you want, but they still threaten you.
There is a "Why Us" on their current website. All the things it lists that a good gym does not do, they have done. For instance, their winning teams Superstition and Wicked were full of level 3 and 4 and 5 athletes and they were level 1 and 2 teams.
When they receive negative reviews, they say please remove this baseless review. Welcome a negative review and grow from it if you are a good company. Apologize, reach out, make it right with people. That's how you grow.
Then there's the way they treat the athletes. It can be horrible at times. Belittling them and making them lose confidence in themselves goes way against their mission statement of a safe, positive, fun learning environment. They accuse athletes of lying about their injuries because they don't want to take responsibility for them being hurt. The list goes on, but you get the idea. They try to get athletes with concussions to still perform because in their medical expertise, the dr's are exaggerating their reports. What do they know?
What's funny about the positive reviews.....several are family and gym owners disguised as patrons.
Edited to add: while photos provide proof of athletes being on multiple teams, we wouldn't consider posting them because we prefer to protect the athletes. Multiple teaming isn't against any rules, it's just silly to lie and say you don't or haven't done it when you know you have and so do the athletes. Other gyms across the nation do it, so why make it sound like you're special and don't?
