My kids (ages 3.5 & 6.5) have been taking recreational gym classes at North Florida Gymnastics for two years. The gym is clean, has age-appropriate equipment and a great viewing area for parents who want to watch their kids. The staff is extremely friendly and the coaches are great working with the kids. My only complaint is the size of the classes. The ratio is supposed to be 6:1, which is ok. However, lately I've noticed some classes having as many as 7 or 8 students in them. (I suspect the additional students may be from the staff squeezing in makeups or a new student doing a free trial.) When this happens, the coaches are not able to give individual time/attention to each child at each rotation (this is unfair to the coaches and the students). It becomes frustrating to watch my kid perform an exercise wrong over and over because the instructor is not able to get to each student because the class is too big. I can't help but feel like quantity is being prioritized over quality, which is a shame because the quality of this gym is what originally impressed and sold me.
