We are going into our third season at Rival and we love it! When my daughter started she had zero skills, she has came a long way with the help and positivity of her coaches! I would definitely recommend giving this gym a chance before you take someone else word ;)
Really enjoy this gym and the coaches. Love that they can preform most of the skills themselves and truly show what the kids are aiming for.
The pace is a challenging pace that allows the kids to grow and get better.
Also, great pricing and relaxed and friendly environment.
This is our 3rd season with Rival. My daughter had never cheered before but was welcomed and taught what she needed to know. The coaches are knowledgeable and caring. They do push the kids to do their best and strive for more. The other athletes are warm and caring, they build each other up and can be seen encouraging and cheering each other on to be their individual best.
No gym will ever be 100% perferct every single area, but communication is open and the spirit here is loving. My daughter knows I will take her to any gym she wants and she CHOOSES Rival. She has gained a ton of new skills and loves being at the gym so much we almost can't get her out to go home. 5 stars from us.
My daughter is in her 4th year of cheer and her 1st year at Rival. Moving to Rival has been one of the best decisions we made! It is her favorite place to be! Taylor and his coaches are awesome and work so well together. They push the kids as any coach should while encouraging them to be their best in everything they do....even school! One of my daughters favorite things is how all of the coaches actually tumble with them to show proper technique (they are amazing!). It has been so much fun to watch her improvement since she started at Rival, with both stunting and tumbling. We are grateful to be part of the Rival family and are looking forward to many seasons to come. My daughter is truly happy and absolutely loves the gym!
This is our second season at Rival. We love the coaches. They are incredibly dedicated and have a lot of experience. The coaches definitely have high expectations of their athletes but they offer plenty of support. The gym is very inclusive, and they will find a place for your athlete no matter their skill level. There is no such thing as a perfect cheer gym, but we are pleased with our experience so far. Our daughter has improved so much in her flying, tumbling, and confidence. We have only Rival to thank for that.
I tried the gym. It's nice but needs better coaching and coordination. I think it's better in future.
My daughter was dismissed from the team 10 minutes after this review was posted due to my honest review.
I now wish there was a half star.
My daughter is on her 3rd season here at RCA. I see a few reviews stating closed practices , yes that's true , quite frankly some of the parents are too involved and interrupt classes with drama and the goal of this gym is to create winning, respectful, polite cheer teams. My kid has improved tremendously over the past 3 years and she loves the coaches. is it hard sometimes? yes but that the nature of completion cheer. and competition cheer is not for the faint hearted.

Great gym and the coaches push the kids to be winners and at the same time be very respectful! Sometimes that is hard, but that is what it takes to be in COMPETITION cheer. if you are dedicated and want to win this is the place for you , if you want to tumble and just look pretty this may not be for you.
Rival Cheer has been a fantastic gym for my daughter and many other athletes! The Owner and Coaches lead by example, set high goals and put in the work with the athletes to reach those goals. My daughter is inspired everyday by her Coaches to be her best on and off the floor.
We just completed our first and final season at Rival. The staff was very welcoming when we first came to the gym but after the contracts were signed and our dues were paid everything changed. We were blindsided by ALL CLOSED PRACTICES. I was very uncomfortable with this but the owner refused to let any parents in. Girls would come out crying and when parents wanted to discuss the issue he turned them away. The staff assured the parents that they would call/meet with us on a different day. Which was a lie. To meet with the owner/staff you have to be persistent and continue to ask otherwise you will never get a meeting. Warning the gym owner has a terrible temper so discussing any issues with him is a waste of your time. Not to mention that he discusses personal issues with the parents that he considers "friends". Unfortunately, those parents are not his true friends and they share that information with others so everybody knows your business.

We tried the gym. It's nice but needs better coaching and coordination. During a recent competition, the team competed without a complete routine. Probably not what you are looking for if you want to compete with highly experienced gyms.
Update: My daughter was dismissed from the team 10 minutes after this review was posted due to my honest review. Additionally, while researching the gym I found the registration for the Rival Cheer Academy LLC "involuntarily ended" due to franchise tax issues in January 2016 according to the State of Texas registration.
I now wish there was a half star.
We have been with the Rival family for 2 seasons and we absolutely love it! My daughter has learned so much already, with no end in sight! The facility is nice, and Taylor is always positive and very knowledgeable! We are here to stay!
Over the last four years my two daughters have been a part of the Rival Cheer Academy. I am so pleased to see them grow their skills in not only the sport but as strong Godly children being that the gym is christian based.
The staff and coaches are very attentive to each athlete. The owner is always giving his all has the best attitude, with class and integrity. I am thankful to the Rival staff, coaches and Rival parents.
The Rival Cheer Academy is an excellent all around gym, I attribute it to the great people that run this place. Furthermore, you will find the gym tidy and super clean.

My daughter has been at Rival for 4 years and LOVES it! Rival has brought the best out of my daughter. They have not only taught her skills to be a good athlete, but have role modeled and taught her how to be Christian Leader.
We have been at Rival for 4 years. My daughter loves this place! The coaches are very dedicated and caring. My daughter has learned and grown in their program. We could not be happier with our experience. Best gym around!
Has multiple irreparable issues. Would not recommend.
