Reviews of Ortona Gymnastics Club (Gym)

Daniel Hodges

Knowledgeable staff and lots of class options.

Barb Gordon

Wow. Worked with them for years and surprised to find myself blocked from their twitter. Not very mature or professional. Especially when I work hard to support their business and clientele.

Kenneth Lam

Great coaches. Boys love it!

Carley Haynes

Great club. Great staff.

Jayden Aitch

The toddler classes are in their own room and my kids enjoyed it very much! Coaches were very warm and hands-on with the kids.

Mark Bennett

Very well maintained and equipped drop him gym, with friendly and knowledgeable staff. It wouldn't be my first recommendation as there are often long waits to get in. Leave 20-30 minutes before your first visit to complete all the waivers and paperwork needed to get in. Champions is another alternative with a similar setup but less paperwork.

A great set up for young children.

My daughter has been going to Ortona for 3 years now. The staff are very knowledgeable and make coming to the gym a pleasant experience. Would definitely recommend. The additional parking has definitely made a big difference while coming to weekend classes.

Had my son's 6th birthday party here and it was terrible! The instructor was yelling at the kids the whole hour. She made one boy cry! One instructor for 16 kids. They were all waiting in line while the instructor helped the kids one by one on the parallel bars. No wonder they were goofing around! The tasks were too hard for them and they had to wait for it. It was not fun at all!!! Book your birthday party anywhere else! I complained to the manager and she was not helpful at all.

Enrolled my daughter in a beginner's class. She really enjoyed it, but it was a misery for me as a parent. Parking is a total nightmare most days, so get there an hour early so you can roam the lot. Viewing for parents starts off upstairs, looking down on the main space and then you go downstairs to peer into the window of the Kinder space, where an entire section is around a corner and unviewable. I didn't even know they had a trampoline in there until the last day when parents were allowed in. Is it so hard to put up a mirror so parents can see what's going on over there? And speaking of the last day, how about even the tiniest effort to organize an activity so the kids can show what they've learned up close? Instead, you get "free time" or an obstacle course that has nothing to do with what they've been learning. And, let's not forget the no classes days that come with no notification. Just a poorly run program overall. This fall, we'll be looking to drive a little extra distance to try someplace else. Hopefully, Ortona isn't typical of the gymnastics culture.

I was a gymnast there for a long time. It was amazing and they teach you so many things. I have learned so much and would definetly suggest you put your child in Ortona, doesnt matter what level

Absolutely LOVE Ortona! Having switched from another club, this experience has been exceptional. Friendly faces, great communication, and above all else, a safe environment for our children. Highly recommend Ortona!

Best gym in the city!

While the teachers are very sweet the inconsideration for paying customers is apparent. Parking horrible don't expect to find a spot unless you want to ride the LRT or else get a $30 parking ticket. We even came an hour early Also don't expect to be notified prior about classes being cancelled. They place very high expectations on parents to pay and be considerate while they don't practice this themselves. Was hoping to find a place that accommodates and relieves stress on a Saturday instead find it to be the most stressful event of the week. Will not be returning next season even though my daughter was beyond excited about gymnastics. :(

Had our son in the associated preschool. Ended up pulling him. Avoid Leapahs-Learning-Garden. Think they had a difficult group of kids last year and seemed at a complete loss on how to approach. Lacked any conflict resolution skills. Twice came in to discuss events to learn no supervisor seemed to be watching kids at the time. Second time was a trend, and we pulled him.
