What do you like about our program and activities?

Penelope, although still new to gymnastics and starting to more easily join in right at the beginning of her sessions, loves the routines! Having her first real birthday party there was truly special. My only constructive criticism would be around the entrance space. The bottleneck of families coming and going through the double doors, with the entry to gymnastics floor being right inside those doors, presents challenges. Maybe there’s a solution but likely would require some reconfiguration.

What do you like about our program and activities?

Matt does a great job connecting with and coaching the kids. My son has anxiety and sometimes gets overwhelmed at practice. Matt is mindful and attentive when this happens all while still keeping up with coaching a bunch of kids.

The half-court setup in the Sterling building is less than ideal this season, and it would be great if there were a second coach to help run drills the way Matt and Laura used to.

What do you like about our program and activities?

My granddaughter was in preterm and really loved it for several months but unfortunately decided it wasn’t for her. But the time in the program was great! The staff really worked well with the kids instructing on the different strokes. I sincerely hoped she would continue and would recommend the program highly

What do you like about our program and activities?

We have been a members of the YNS Sharks since 2017 and are very satisfied with the progress the program has made under Coach Dave. He has created a great team spirit among the athletes and coaching staff. My children have had overwhelmingly positive experiences and being a member of the Sharks has helped their development both in and out of the pool.

What do you like about our program and activities?

The teachers are fantastic!! Their knowledge and experience beats other programs I’ve had my children involved in. The 45 minutes lesson time is great, allowing some shy or nervous children more time to get comfortable and keep up with their peers.
