St Louis Spirits Gymnastics Club

Kendra and the other ladies are amazing! So glad that I found this club. My girls look forward to gymnastics each week and their confidence and drive to not give up has definitely increased since we have started going!

Spirits has become our second home! The staff and coaches are so caring and welcoming. They not only teach solid gymnastics skills and techniques, they also focus on core values including self esteem and supporting each other. My daughter has grown so much from being a part of this family! My son also participates at Spirits through their ninja program that pushes him physically while having a great time!

If I could give a 0 i would! Professionalism is non existent. There is no structure on leveling up and the owner's behavior is atrocious. If you care about the fundamentals and having your child grow in the sport this place isn't for you. If you need a babysitting service for an hour while you run errands then this place (I almost said establishment but that would insinuate they have an actual smooth running business) may suffice.

When Spirits offered a 2 week trial, we signed up our then 3 year old daughter for classes. The gym as nice, the coaches were good, staff was pretty friendly. Our main concern was that we wanted a gym that offered live streams so that I and other members of my family could watch my daughter. I was assured that this service was provided for each and every class. Not a week has gone by that we haven't had to call, post in their private group, or go to the front desk to have the cameras turned on. After 4 months and repeated instances of politely asking the service that was most important to us be followed up on, we decided to ask for a refund since we paid for a yearly membership in full. I made a post in their private group about the cameras and was promptly told to give my daughter space and to chill. When the comments turned to personal attacks on me by some other members, the owner deleted the post and then made a post thanking other members for coming to the defense of the gym. However, the gym wasn't attacked in any way. Spirits Gymnastics took my money for a yearly membership and promptly stopped providing one of the key services we sought and then sicced the dogs on us when expressing frustration. Though the fix was easy (turn on the camera for hte live stream), we were given every excuse and told we shouldn't expect it, though again, it was the key reason we chose Spirits in the first place. Additionally, there is no structure for graduating from one class to the next. There are no progress reports or individual practice regimens to do from home to graduate to a more advanced class, something many other local gyms do in order to progress its students. If you're looking for a budget gym that will watch your kids for an hour while you go do errands, I suppose this'll do, but if you truly care about the development of your children into competitive athletes and being able to support them through their journeys, this isn't the gym for you.

I contacted Spirits on 7/12 to set my daughter up with private lessons. The receptionist took my info and said an instructor would be reaching out to me. Three days went by and I didn't hear anything, so I called back and spoke with the same person who said she would make sure someone contacts me. Here we are a week later and no one has called or emailed me. I guess we'll be looking for another gym.
