UPDARED RATING: Unfortunately after several months of issues and first hand experience of how unethical this club runs things, I have chosen to take my child to club, that I believe, will instill a sense of self confidence and esteem in her. Unfortunately her self esteem was ripped from her while training at Energy, and the Board felt that it was my responsibility to address the coach after my daughter had been harassed and left SEVERAL times crying (along with admitted mistreatment that was described as a "misunderstanding); as a result they refused to supply me with a refund. This proves to me that the Board and the club, as a whole, does not believe a young child when she complains about bullying and therefore does not value the growth and development of young prepubescent girls. It is clear that Gymnastics Energy values nothing more than money! I would NEVER recommend this organization until they clean up their disorganized and uncaring business practices. Making "good " athletes should not come at the expense of their emotional wellbeing.
They can keep my money; it's worth the price to pay in order to fight and prove that this club places no value on the children their policies were enacted to protect from bullying and harassment.
It sickens me, quite frankly!

My daughter (6) loves attending! She is the competitive program, ODP, 9 hours a week with Amy T. I can't say enough nice things about our experience with Amy. My daughter has excelled tremendously.
The facility is well equipped with tonnes of space and viewing. It's always clean and I love how bright it is!
The downside, WAY too packed on rec nights, but that's par for the course.
It would be nice to see a more organized energy competition next year. It was absolutely horrible! I'm sure they're trying to work some Kinks out, but if it wasn't our home competition I would never attend again. Excluding that slight hiccup, we are more than pleased with our experience so far. I suppose I'm slightly biased, as I also trained and competed for energy in my younger years.
