My 5 1/2 year old daughter has been taking classes at Salute since she was 2. We started going to Salute because their Mommy and Me class was the best fit of all the gyms in town for us at the time. We have stayed taking at Salute because their staff is wonderful and take so much time with my daughter. They do not push her past what is developmentally appropriate but they challenge her and train her correctly. I highly recommend Salute Gymnastics Academy to anyone looking for good solid training and a family like atmosphere.
Love Love Love this gym 3 years ago i had a 15 year old kid who was consistently in my opinion gonna break his freakin neck flippin around. We looked into alot of gyms but my son was unsure of doing gymnastics in a gym because he thought he was to old and it would be all girls, first class he was hooked, now 3 years later he has mastered more skills than he could have ever aspired to and fell in love with the structure, confidence and peace Salute and tumbling brought into his life. my only regret is that i didnt find them sooner
My daughter went to the summer camp this year and loved it. She is taking classes now and she loves it. The coaches are great and super knowledgable. Overall great place!
As someone who has grown up in the sport, I can say with the utmost confidence that you will be hard pressed to find a coach with more passion and love for gymnastics than Stephen. Salute Gymnastics Academy may not be the flashiest gym in Pensacola; however, if dedication to your athletes well being and advancement in the sport is what youre seeking, then this is the gym for you. Stephen and his team truly make it their goal to bring their love of gymnastics, young athletes and this community to the forefront of their mission.
We are in our second month at Salute. I have two children attending and I’m evaluating them as a mom and former dancer and gymnast. Some of the staff seem really young, although nice. I’d like to see more adult supervision. I went to Dance Generation and Montgomery Gymnastics Academy in Montgomery, AL for 15 years...I don’t know if I see my girls staying here for the long haul. The owner...not even sure who that is!!! And that’s discouraging as a mom. Janice Ransom, and family, who run Dance Generation really set a high bar for me. We didn’t take multiple water breaks during a one hour session. Honestly, for what we’re paying I expect more than I’m seeing. The night they had what I can only classify as an “open house” was a total waste of my money because my children weren’t paid close attention to and they were literally picking their suits out of their butts while we sat in a humid, hot, sticky and crowded environment. They should have planned to do this on their dime and not on mine.On a whole I’m giving a 3 star review based on having a lack of adults present, the “open house”, and cost. They don’t need 3 water breaks in an hour in a beginners class. I get frustrated by this every week. The owner also could come around and say hi and welcome you...I’m frustrated and am on the fence about driving further away to take my kids somewhere else.
I have been going to the Flip Factory for 2 years now and I have never been disappointed. I dont agree with the people that give this place a one star because Im practice every day I know what goes on in that gym. My gymnastic team is always nice to everyone there we are very caring and try our best to get to know everyone. The coaches are Amazing and so sweet. I think you should come give the Flip Factory a try!!
I brought my daughter over to this gym from another gym in Gulf Breeze and we have beennothing but happy ever since. The staff has been so warm and welcoming to us. If I was not 100% confident in this gym my child would not be enrolled here.
My oldest went for tumbling, and she sprained her ankle. No one bothered to call me, and the rude manager didnt seem to be concerned. My youngest loved it for a while....moved her to another gym. Coach Kelly was very nice, and my daughter seemed to like her a lot.
My daughter attends Salute for after school care and gymnastics. She loves the staff. She even chose to have her 7th birthday party there.
Beat Gymnastic place in town! Awesome coaches, love what they do and really care about the kids! Great atmosphere and environment to bring your kids!!
I signed my eight year old daughter and five year old son. Gymnastics night is their favorite. The place is clean, the staff is super friendly and knowlegable, and they made us feel welcomed right away even though we are new to the sport. Definitely worth every penny.
Very professional and staff is amazing! Kid friendly, organized, clean atmosphere. Our daughter loved it from the moment she walked in ! 👍😃
My two daughters has been going to the Flip Factory for a year now. I am very impressed with the staff and management there. They all are very professional and care about there kids. I am one happy Mom!!!
Our child was treated horribly by the owner and his staff. I have over heard employees speaking inappropriately in front of children. The staff is disorganized and terribly unprofessional. I would advise anyone else not to bring your children to the flip factory.It is obvious that this management has friends providing favorable reviews. Dont be fooled. Dont trust them with your children.
They have completely tarnished this business! The staff is un-certified & under qualified. Hopefully the new owner can salvage whats left of what USE to be a 5 star program! If you value your money and care about the character of your children you should take your money elsewhere.
Very fun place. My girls love it! Everyone is very nice and helpful!
My daughter Megan flowers goes here. Just want to say the new owner Aaron Stillwater is so dedicated to make sure these cheerleaders are getting ready for the best competition ever this year.I aslo want to thank the coaches for pushing these girls to do their very best. I want to thank the moms in the cheer team for making me and my daughter feel so welcome. I would recommend Flip Factory to anyone whos looking for a good team :)
So sad to see the last review from a past cheer coach. Please visit the Flip Factory and judge for yourself. Youll be happy you took the time to do so.
My daughter has been going here for 3 years and she absolutely loves it. Her skills are improving everyday and she loves everyone there ! Great staff!!
Wonderful place to bring your kids!! Salute Gymnastics Acadamy is great for first timers or seasoned athletes!
My step daughter hated it here. The little girls running the place are snotty brats and mean to the kids. Go somewhere else.
An amazing environment and very welcoming to new students
