Reviews of Gymnastic Giants (Gym)

Hogart Pig

This place knows what it takes to teach gymnastics. They have amazing coaches and the staff is just so friendly. I would recommend this club to anyone that is looking for a great environment for their child to learn gymnastics.

Herbert Hernandez

The trainers are awesome and the place is huge!

Highly suggest you review the original reviews. The recent positive ones are definitely being made by employees at Bradley's direction. This place is horribly run, they have all kinds of people's kids running around disturbing classes and taking away attention from your paid kids classes. They tell the students that they cant use any equipment unless it's free, what is the point of paying for organized classes if you arent going to set an actual routine and dedicate equipment/space for that class and have so many people in the place that it's probably a fire hazard. The place is very dirty and extremely dusty. Many kids with allergies were reacting and having to leave class. They cancel classes all the time and dont inform you, the response is look at the board and dont think that they will compensate you for this. It's a joke. I heard so many people arguing with the girls about how they were over charged and the girls say they cant do anything, that Bradley is in charge. When you ask how to reach him they say you have to tell them and they'll pass on the message. If you arent going to empower employees than as management in a customer service industry you must make yourself available. Basic expectations. So please be warned this place is mismanaged and dirty and will make you regret signing up, I know i did.

My daughter is really enjoying her classes and coach Bailey has been a great coach! They have done their absolute best to accommodate the students despite the covid 19 restrictions.

This company will steal from you! I am a low income family and they received a jumpstart cheque and didn’t tell me it came so I’d pay out of pocket. They got more than double payment. When I asked for my money back they told they would not and it’s in their policy of no refunds! This company steals from people do not enroll!!!!

I happen to disagree with some of the comments on here. I am very pleased with Gymnastics Giants. I don't think you can find a better club than this club. The facility is always well kept and they have a check-in and out system to keep the children safe. No other gyms would even think of doing such. The coaches and athletes seem very happy. The staff are always so friendly and professional. If parents have any questions or concerns, they are always there to listen and to try to make every situation better. It's like a big family there. I've never seen a club with the owner in the gym to ensure the club is running properly and the athletes are properly trained. Most importantly, my kid is so happy and disciplined and she is receiving all the trainings that she should receive. We are very very pleased. Keep doing what you are doing GG!!!

From the time we entered we were greated by smelly dirty odor and shoes scatted all over the front entrance blocking the doorway. We literally had to cautiously step or walk over them. Can't imagine how their Brampton Fire Inspector has not given clear warning about this hazard. The facility seemed like it was never ever cleaned or disinfected as the floors were filthy and the facility had an overall unclean smell the you could almost feel the filth and germs lurking....gross. The waiting area for patents absolutely could use a refresh of chairs that are clean and without rips and tears. The gymnasium did seem overcrowded for its size. And yes found also that the admin staff were unprofessional having what seemed their own personal kids/siblings tubing around the front desk as a distraction. Won't go there again....

Andrea Zackary

Awesome gymnastics family. Great coaches great place.

dilreet Kaur

its awful

Ann Deonandan

Gymnastic giants a is great facility with great and friendly staff and coaches owners Brad and Rick are honest and always very helpful. My daughters has grown academically and professionally from going here for over 3 years. This is the best Gymnastics gym I went to and advise it to anyone who wants to to join.

Mathieu Lefebvre

It's a nice clean place with great staff who care about the children.

Manash Deb

I would highly recommend sending your children to Gymnastic Giants. I took parents and tots program, which's awesome! Just one caution about the cancelation policy: You need to notify them one month in advance exactly on 01st, else you are out of luck!

Holly Clappison

I personally go to this gym and the coach’s are amazing. They take time with each of their students and are very friendly. The gym IS clean, people who say it is not, probably came during a big class, when children have been in the gym for a while. The workers at the gym always clean up and sometime some of the gymnast help as well. You don’t have to have brand new everything if EVERYTHING you have world. The owner of the gym is Brad Peter’s a former Olympian. Not all training is hands on. They show you how to fix your problem and then continue to tell you the correction until you get it. The windows are smaller so that the children don’t get distracted by the parents.

I was apart of this gym for awhile before I left because I had to go abroad. Truly I wasn’t very happy but now that I think of it, I’m thinking of what the real reviews actually meant. When I was there mostly the teens would help us instruct and the real instructors would only give us instructions to do. I was failing a little bit but the instructors didn’t really care and didn’t support me at all. I’m just saying that if you want your child to go somewhere nice, then you might rethink going here. Just saying that this is my opinion...

Through A’niyah’s “Thecrawfordfamily” Eyes

My daughter just started here I give it 5 stars amazing coaches very welcoming ????????

Castle Rock

An amazing gymnastic club! The gym has had some major updates with the interior this past year. Gym giants is best place to learn gymnastics in Brampton by a landslide.

Patrick Delanty

I highly recommend Gymnastic Giants. My kids love these Zoom classes. During Covid they are doing an amazing job. Coach Ashley is the best, my girls love her and have they learned so much!

Aaliyah Rochelle (Leah)

I never had a problem going to Gymnastic Giants when I was younger doing the summer camp here up until the last year I did Summer camp at Gymnastic Giants in 2012 or 2013. We all had free time, and I was waiting in line to use the trampoline and also talking to my friend when I swore. I'm not condoning swearing but one of the younger coaches by the name of Aidan Smith yelled "WHO SAID THAT?!" in front of the entire class and when he realized it was me who said it, he yelled at me to get off. At this point I was already crying yet he showed no sympathy that children make mistakes. I didn't even get a warning, he just made me sit out for the rest of free time and embarrassed me in front of the whole class and my sister who was also in the class with me and came to give me support. I cried non-stop. The coaches here do NOT know how to handle children with intellectual disabilities because I have an intellectual disability myself and the way that one "coach" Aidan handled that situation with me was VERY disgusting and left a bad taste in mouth of Gymnastic Giants . I do not recommend bringing your child here if they have a Intellectual Disability.

AWESOME!

Mr.A The Martian

Great environment and lots of people to teach you what you want to learn

Aida Costa

After reading some reviews of late - I feel the need to add to my previous 2 cents worth... As most people realize, there are always two sides to every story - seldom is one side totally right and the other totally wrong - we all make choices with consequences. My choice is to acknowledge Gymnastics Giants and rate it as a 5 star facility - is it perfect - No - BUT, what in life is 100% ? Over the last while, before the Head Coach issues - (which is sad, but really a non issue in my opinion - just like with many of our own jobs, if we were to leave - reality is the show will go on )...there have been very positive changes ‘fixing’ many of the points of the previous negative comments :-) ... there are still improvements that can be made for sure - that is managements choice - it is their business to run as they feel fit. We all have choices! Is everyone going to be happy all the time - NEVER- again we all have choices! My choice as an only parent / single parent to a child who is involved in various extra curricular activities- everyday of the week - is to continue with her favourite activity at her very favourite place Gymnastic Giants - she would be here 7 days a week if I could swing it. She has become a very fit competitive athlete - an A student - has made amazing friendships - has become a disciplined human being to be able to juggle all - Gymnastics Giants coaches ( Coach Ashley is most awesome!) ...all have helped life mould her to succeed- thank you Gym Giants! I spend many hours a week at the facility- I’m one of those parents who stays to watch the training - I’m lucky I only have one child and can do so - I observe way more positives than negatives or I would move on... my choice. PS Brad does know my daughter and gives her tips- which is amazing considering how many hundreds of children are actively using his facility. Previous comment from more than a year ago: Lots of happy children in a positive enviroment...thanks to great coaches! Yes the facility sometimes looks a little tired... but with so many people coming through it hard to keep up with it... but they do try! My daughter loves it and has excelled here... and this has crossed over to other areas in her life... that is most important!

hardi modi

Worst place ever. Please make sure about monthly payments and all. I had bad experience with them .

Daniel “Danno” Colque

Great teachers!

Rei C

Meh. Hit and miss instructors, chaotic environment, some class sizes too large. We didn't find that the instructors tried to dial in to the needs of the individual kids, just went about the routine and if the kids did it too great, if not, on to the next routine and too bad. Probably missing out on a lot of potential in your child. Tried for 3 months but moved on to another gymnastics school. Was looking for more here, didn't find it.

Victoria Di Paola

amazing place, facility does have some great coaches and it's a very positive environment. highly recommended!

naviismilk

The equipment is old, worn and looks dirty. The class size is too big and the kids spend most of the time in line waiting to do something. Instructions are mostly verbal with little to no feedback. Will not be renewing for further classes.

Tasheena Williams

We Absolutely Love Gymnastics Giants Myself And My Kids. My Daughter Learned So Much From Them Its Amazing She Started When She Was 4 Shes 6 Now And Knows So Much, She Loves Doing It. The Staff And Owner Are So Nice & Understanding They Take Their Time To Show Your Kids How To Do Things Properly & Shows Them How To Be Disciplined I Really Wish We Didnt Have To Move Out Of Town But We Had To. We Truly Are Going To Miss This Gym.

Susie Peterman

I’ve read most the previous reviews, but want to give my totally honest review of Gymnastic Giants. My two daughters, age 3 and 5 are enrolled in their summer camp and they LOVE it. We as their parents love it as well. It is very clean and well kept and the entrance area is light, airy and organized. The parent area by the reception desk seems well taken care of and an easy place to watch the kids if we want to, through a couple big windows without being too intrusive to the coaches and distracting the kids during their lessons. while those things are lovely, my biggest favourite thing is the staff. They seem very knowledgeable and genuinely invested and interested in providing a fun, safe and organized space to teach all these cool skills to the kids. I have zero negative things to say and will be looking into signing them up for future lessons. My kids can be hesitant and shy to try new things and the best review I can give is that they are up and excited every morning to go to gymnastics and come home happy, tired and talk all about how much fun they had. ???? Based on our experience I would 10/10 recommend!

H.B “Avidbuyer”

I had a birthday party. Awful. They have no sense of responsibility. Don't bother with this place owner is irresponsible. The place is dirty

J Nagi

Awesome place, exceptional staff, friendly, warm, very family oriented. The owners brad n manager rick are very, passionate an accommodating. Highly recommend gymnastics giants for all ages.

S Patel

The above review is accurate. Stay away!!!! We have always tried to overlook the bad because the head coach was so amazing, but now due to what has transpired I can not keep quite anymore. We have had several families leave because they could not afford paying full price for multiple children. The owner woud rather see families leave than offer to help people. The twitter photos are of the owner training kids. in Reality the only time you see him in the gym is when he needs something. He watches for a minute and retreats to his office. He doesn’t know any of the athletes in the gym even the ones who have trained there for years and are champions representing this gym. Everything we are required to purchase is ridiculously overpriced. The owner doesn’t even pay the coaches during tournaments, which I find crazy as the athletes and coaches are representing the gym. The remaining coaches at the gym (excluding Melissa) are not qualified to coach. Save your money and go elsewhere all they want to do here is gouge families.

Jessica Turpin

This place is very old and worn out. When you walk in the doors you are greeted with a very strong smelling odor. Place needs a huge makeover

Sunil Patel

Bad place. Rude management

Margaret Clappison

Daughter has been attending competitive classes for a few years. Great results, great coaches who provide feedback to the parents. Family atmosphere.

Francisco Delduca

I love this place nice and friendly and great coach's !

Amandeep Chopra

Dirty place. Very dirty for birthday party

F Grant

I had the Pleasure of speaking to Mr Brad the owner and Rick the manager who was been accommodating and compassion to me and my daughter. Gymnastics Giants is a Awesome place, exceptional staff, friendly, warm, and very family oriented place for children of all age can come and join gymnastics. My daughter as now move to the competitive gymnastics and is loving every minute of it. Gymnastics Giants supports family and children to be the best in whatever they want to do and can be come.

samantha giovanni

I had great intentions in getting my daughter joined here.... but after reading all these reviews I think I will play it safe! It's a no from me!

Mike Lepine

Just reading some of these review post, and I am really have a tough time with people who cannot be truthful and post things that are not true and try write false things about the Gym and Brad. I personally think that Brad has done an amazing job over the years with the Gym and his staff and students. My daughter who was a former gymnast at Gym Giants. Is now one of the coaches and definitely takes pride on what she does and what she has accomplished with all her students male or female .I have been involved in a lot of other Gym clubs over the years and each gym has their problems, but what I do know that at any given time if you have a problem with Gym or one of the teachers there . You can definitely make an appointment with Brad and voice your concerns and he will do what ever possible to try help the situation. At that point if not happy then you have a choice to try something else All Students and Teachers come and go and lot of old teachers still come back to help out. What I find funny is when a teacher leaves suddenly then post starts happening. My daughter has now been with Gym Giants for close to 20 years now and she is still working with the children, Great job Brad and staff keep up the good work

Carrie L

Came for a bday party. This place looks old and dirty. Definitely needs a huge upgrade.

Melissa Lepine

amazing environment. For a gymnastics facility it is very clean and tidy. Much better then other facilities. It is very family oriented. The coaches and staff there treat the children with respect and joy, and care about them as if they were family. Very reasonably priced. Coaches are all certified and are very hands on.

B Sandrit

Gymnastics Giants is a complete disaster. The head coach was just fired because the owner is greedy. We paid $205.00 for tracksuit that cost Mr Brad Peters $50.00 to make. The gym equipment is 20 plus years old. The classes are being run by children, because Brad Peters does not pay proper coaches what they are worth. The parents from the compeptive group are going to dismantle and go elsewhere. Brad Peters does not care about the children, he only cares about his bank account. Stay far far far away from this place.

binal shah

Amazing for kids! Teachers and staffs are very nice. Recommended to other kids as well!

Jake Prescott

I am very surprised to see some recent negative reviews for Gymnastics Giants. I currently live out of town, but as a father of 2 (3 and 5 y/o), I wish that I had the option to send my children to Gym Giants, I have seen very few clubs that are as well run including the gym my children currently attend. I have been personally connected to this gym since it opened, in fact Brad was my coach prior to opening Gym Giants. I trained here and worked here for many years. I think it speaks volumes for the gym to see how many of the employees stay for 10+ years (me included), many of the current coaches have been there since I left in 2004, including Melissa, Aiden, Cynthia, Brad and more. A lot of the reviews seem to coincide with a coach leaving. This coach has been involved with this gym for over 20 years, both as an athlete and an employee, so obviously this would be a major transition and not with out its bumps. I find it amazing to find a family run gym that can retain coaches, athletes, and fans for so long. I would encourage you to visit the gym prior to making a decision based on the negative reviews. You will immediately get the feeling that the staff and athletes are treated as family. Ask a few of the coaches how long they have been there, then ask the same question at another gym. As someone who left Brampton 15 years ago, I still make a point to visit Brad and the gym whenever I am in the area, and am glad to still see many familiar faces each time I return.

Helena Gomes

I can't thank Cinthia enough. She is the most wonderful customer service person I have ever met. She is patient, devoted and explains things very well. She is excellent and she certainly adds value to the place. Thank you Cinthia million times.

Chichi Kolawale

Good to keep you fit .

Albert Ho

Staff was rude and mistakenly reserved a room for me that was smaller than requested. I have previously been to the venue in person and have spoke to the representative there asking for the biggest room and she has agreed and marked it down correctly. However on the day of the event, I was pushed to a smaller room and when I pointed that out to the staff, they gave very poor manners in handling it. After a discussion that took almost 30 minutes to 1 pm (the event was supposed to start at 12:30 pm), they finally gave the big room to me but did not help in cleaning or providing the tables, utensils. To me this is not acceptable service considering that I paid to host a party for 15 kids and above. I will not recommend this place at all. Save your money and go somewhere else if you want to book a party for kids.

bsawan1

I enrolled my daughter here because Brad is a former Olympian and world class gymnast and I would like my daughter to learn from the best . I would highly recommend the gym to anyone who is passionate about gymnastics. My daughter goes to the gym and she loves it. She says she enjoyed it every time I go to pick her up. It's all that matters to me.

Shannon Thibideau

I was involved with Gymnastic Giants as both a gymnast and a coach for many years. The atmosphere in the gym was ALWAYS a fun one. Whether it was a birthday party, summer camp or the regular weekly classes. The recent negative reviews here seem to be quite juvenile and likely done by a bitter past employee. When I joined the gym we didn't read reviews or look online, we went in, spoke to the coaches, other parents and kids and checked out the facility for ourselves. I suggest you do the same!

Melanie M

My daughter had so much fun in gymnastics camp, LOVED her coach. Will definitely bring her back!

Jasdeep Singh

The place is no good. Owner very bad and rude people

Mike Dee

I was saddened to hear tonight that my daughters coach was let go. Let me make this clear that this place is not a good place. Brad is a very self centred and all about himself type owner. I have spoke to other gymnastic gyms and was appalled to hear the stories and reputation of this former Olympian. Brad is a very greedy and bad person in and out. To fire your best coach because she asked for a vacation is pathetic, you should be ashamed for what you did not just to the coach, but to the girls that love that coach. You broke those girls hearts and now they will break your bank account. Because in the end Brad we all know the only thing you care about is money.

Amara Singh

This place knows what it takes to teach gymnastics. They have amazing coaches and the staff is just so friendly. I would recommend this club to anyone that is looking for a great environment for their child to learn gymnastics.

Andreia

I have been very pleased with this place . My daughter is doing so well, not only learning the Sport but also Discipline . Don't think that your kid will be spoiled here ....It is a serious place and Discipline and Commitment is a Base to any sport ! Love The manager and the Owner and the place always clean .

Emma Zehra

My daughter's instructor would sit at one place and give verbal instructions. She was very lazy and I didn't see any enthusiasm in her. I had to pull my daughter out. I did not find this place to be professional. I gave them advance cancellation notice and they still went ahead and billed my CC. Instead of apologizing, they just said you can come and pick up the cheque from the reception, which is quite inconvenient for me. Very disappointed!

Raina Hahid

I love the gym the people are very friendly and the desk and coach and owner really nice !

har bri

My kid has been apart of this gym for awhile now. You can see the incline of this gym. The staff here are very rude to parents, if you are not part of their clik of parents than you would not be acknowledge at all. I believe this gym is a rip off. Over $200.00 for a no name track suit? That is a bit ridicules if you ask me. Few issues with this gym is the coaches always have there own little kids running around the gym so coaches do not pay attention to the kids who are paying a lot of money to get better. Coaches always leave half way through the classes and let the other younger coaches coach these kids. How do you expect them to do get better???? I believe Brad Peters has to do a better job running this gym. Also do not believe the other post here as some of the post are from the actual coaches themselves.

Kati P

We just had a birthday party here and we had a fantastic time. The kids had a blast and even the adults enjoyed themselves. The foam pit was a huge hit with the kids. The instructors were great and friendly. I'd defiantly recommend hosting a party here.

Guess WHO

The reviews are not fake; they are all real. Go to the gym and find out for yourself. Hopefully your child does not injure them self on all the duct tape holding the equipment together.

Francisco DReis

Its very sad seem parents doing retaliation against the owner company with the matters not true. My family have three kids at Gym . The owner and coach 's are friendly and the nice gym , clean , a lot improvement he doing . This parents doing this negative review despicable attitude some are close friend the coach live . They don't tell the true she was a coach have favorite kids , bring personal problems to , dress inappropriate , not show for training Sunday , she brings her kids to work make disturb the training . Also she not that great coach I saw in a lot parents left because her behavior . The worse she not professional told all young kids when was coaching she living and was completely not professional involve her personal issues making all kids upset and crying . . The people right the negative review not tell the true she not get fired she walk way . The owner call me and others parents explained the facts Her friends of course trying harm the gym and Brad . Personally I think was the best to gym ! .

Cosmo Laterra

Dump

Bar Reigns

This place is an absolute dump. I have a child currently competing here. There is zero structure to this place. Coaches are always texting on the phone and not paying attention to the children, only barking orders from one side of the gym. The owner (Brad Peters) you can tell is just a lazy sleazy owner. Not once has he helped out with the kids, yet on there website it shows he is hands on with the children. This place sucks and it’s my biggest regret signing up here. Go do your research and sign up elsewhere.

Candid Review

They lack emotional intelligence and business acumen by allowing inexperience staff to make decisions and cause them to lose high value business.

Andrew Colli

My kids were signed up last session and loved it! We will be coming back in September.

Studio ECO

I'm with Brad Peters he and all coach's are amazing .They doing great job ! My kid love the gym . Doesn't exist perfect place if not happy with the gym or can't pay the suit , or anything else move on . Why you there ? If like the coach living and follow up her and good luck. Personally the coach living I don't think she is the best coach because don't have an appropriate behavior and posture to be coaching young kids they have others are amazing coach's there . I paid the gym suit and I LOVE IT my daughter look great !

Brady Sheen

New manager very rude. Girls are nice. He was fighting with new Parents.

Stevie M

My boys have been members at Gynastic Giants for a year now and i could not be happier . They are doing better and better . Very pleased with all the staff and care for my kids . Highly recommend this place .

Paula Mejia

Coaches and directors are honest, constructive and very accommodating. All the staff and owners have your best interest at heart which is priceless to me and my daughter who is progressing quickly with them. Keep up the awesome team work guys!

Ray Levesque

Gymnastics are okay, but no seating area and not a very clean place; parents can only watch through 2 medium-sized windows while standing in their socks on dirty floors, bathrooms are nasty and visitors' shoes scattered all over the entrance---a definite fire safety hazard!

Josey Munjhal

My children were in gymnastics programs before covid . I hope ???? soon it’s going to be over and they can start again. Brad is nice .

Marcela Danilewicz

I was looking for a summer camp for my child, after reading the reviews I felt I needed to personally go and take a look at the facility. The reviews were right about it being dirty, shoes thrown on the floor right at the main entrance, looked like one of the offices were very unorganized and messy. Most of the seating chairs were ripped up and should be replaced. This place has not taken the reviews seriously.

Ashley A

Just had my daughters 6th birthday this past weekend and all I can say is Gymnastic Giants team was great the kids loved every minute and the party room was spacious and clean! highly recommend having a child birthday party here!

shannon hughes

Great staff. Love them!
