My oldest daughter started camp here 5 years ago. She loved it. The counselors are on the same level as the kids in wanting to have fun. I am so impressed with the counselors, field trips, themes. Even with being an active duty family where we move constant/living other states. When we are in town visiting family or a handful of months we always come back to kids first. We have done events as well. When my youngest daughter was of age we have done gymnastics, trampoline classes. Now we are doing cheer classes. The staff is nice and very active with all the kids. When I have had questions, anything regarding my account. The front desk staff has always been amazing with helping. Thank you to all the staff!Amanda Bradley

I love, love, love Kids 1st Sports. The CSR team is always nice, and polite. They have an awesome list of classes for all ages, and at all times to accommodate your childs schedule. The ease of the online portal to schedule classes, pay tuition, or just see what functions are coming up is very user friendly. The classes are culturally diverse. The instructors are very thorough (Shout out to my daughters instructor Mrs. Ladye... Shes the best😇). They seem to really like their jobs, being around kids, and wholeheartedly want each child to succeed. I cant praise this place enough! If I had to pick one negative about this place (which isnt by any means a deal breaker) its the offensive odor inside the compound of this facility. I give them a pass on that because kids running around all day would leave any facility a little smelly.

I love this place. More importantly, my baby loves this place. We do TumbleBees and Swim, and it has helped my baby with her social development and her motor skills. The teachers are great, the classes are great and typically around 6 kids for my babys age, with parents in the classes, and everyone works hard to make sure the place is clean and safe for all the athletes in the building.

They have so much to offer towards our young people. I highly recommend this place for parents and Guardians to send their children.

I can’t recommend this place highly enough. Everyone at Kids First is professional, kind, encouraging and very competent! We have been going here for the last 4 years and have no plans of stopping!

Me little guy loves the programs there! Swimming lessons and tumbling are a BIG WIN in our book! Especially when they can combine therapy and tumbling together. He learns so much and doesnt even realize it.

Today I watched my daughter and her two-month old son have such a great time at the Baby Bees (mommy and me) gymnastics class. The instructor was amazing! She had tons of energy, gave clear instructions, and managed to keep track of 6 or 7 moms/dads and their babies (who were all under 6 months) for almost 45 minutes. And the best part? The classes for babies up until the are six months old are FREE!! The Kids First facility and the people who work there are amazing!

1st time and last time my children will go here. I signed my 12 year old up for Space Camp. Per their website, his age group was listed in the afternoon. Signed him up for 1 day to see how he would like it. They charged me for 2 days (because, I guess thats the minimum?) Never received a receipt for payment until I inquired about it. He went to camp for the 1st day charged expecting it to be Space Camp, Swimming (since bringing swimsuit and towel was required).. It turned out to be a Ninja Boot Camp. Also there was no swimming. I know there is a lot going on because of COVID but was super unorganized. We have been to many different camps through the city, by far this is my worst encounter

A high quality all in one physical entertainment center. My eldest daughter went here for ballet years ago and now goes for gymnastics. My littlest does tumblebees and is about to start the swimming program. Cafe is spacious and relaxing to feed the little one while her sister is doing all the flippy stuff within view. Parking seems better than it used to be, but we will see how that unfolds once the new hall next door opens and tournaments return.

This place is great. My daughter did the tumble bees baby class and the baby splash classes. We had Kim for swim class and she is delightful. We had a guy sub one day (Tim?) and he was wonderful as well. Very cheery and encouraging place. Tumble bees was very clean, which mattered a lot to me with a 3 month old. The teacher varied because it was vacation season. I liked the sub teacher better because she went into more detail and didnt assume everyone had been there before. Both the swim class and tumble class are free for the first six months for a baby! The reason for four stars is the pricing of classes. They were really steep for baby classes. Also, the changing rooms being co ed made it a little awkward for my husband to help with my daughter (his personal feelings).

We spend a lot of time at Kids First and I highly recommend. Be it swim lessons, Tumblebees, a bite in Book Bums, or Parents Nights Out, the kids always have a great time. Where else can you have one kid enrolled in dance and the other in karate at the same time?!The facilities are amazingly clean, especially considering all of the kids running around. The instructors are great. And the support staff is always friendly and helpful. The website makes it super easy to enroll and change extracurriculars...as theres so many options to try!

I played Pickleball here today (11/11/2019, Veterans Day) and had a great time. The competition was strong but the games came quick because there were so many active courts. Thank you Veterans for your service.

I signed my boys (age 2 and 4) up for Tumble Bees about 6 months ago. We love every visit and come out sweaty and excited. The 4 year old program is fantastic and my son has learned new skills in such a short period of time. My 4 year old loves rotating instructors and kids in his group!The 2 year old program works around you and your l two year old tantrums and their developing skills. Miss Lady is super patient and wonderful with the 2’s class, we absolutely love her!We would definitely recommend Kids First Sports for their Tumble Bees program! We are so sad to move out of state and leave the class. :(

So far, so good. So many options! I love it. The cafe, the books, the boutique! The front desk staff is hit or miss, Ill just keep my eyes peeled for the good ones! Swim has been excellent, karate also - excellent.

I’ve been using kids first for a few months for my two sons, 4 and 6. It’s a very clean and well run facility, with a ton of equipment and classes spanning from beginning to (apparently) very advanced kids. There are a few things I like in particular about it: it’s very boy-friendly, with male teachers for the “gym jam” and a significant number of boys in the program, which makes it more inclusive for my guys. The tumblebees program is staffed by extremely friendly and helpful instructors who help the more reluctant kids enjoy themselves with something new. And in general it seems to do a great job of keeping kids engaged as they become more advanced and experienced. The only negative is cost, but for my guys it’s a worthwhile expense.

Currently open (Dec. 2020) with mask and distancing restrictions. The gymnastics facility is a rather large room and full of colorful padding and professional gymnastics equipment from wall to wall. Next to that is an open viewing area above and a spacious enclosed cafe below that, with windows open to the whole gymnastics facility beyond. There is a whole other basketball practice area in an adjoining facility. Also many aerobics and dancing classes in large rooms on both floors. Very well run organization. Reminds me of the Lebanon, OH, YMCA.

My daughter went here for 3 years from age 2.5 to 5 ish. After we left she still could not do a cartwheel. Spoke to management about the technique development and they said they would look into it. 2 years same class with no cartwheel. Dance etc... much better. The kids actually are getting a workout and showing signs of sweat.

The place for gymnastics is very large and has a large variety of pieces of equipment. Theres also multiple viewing areas for parents and family members to sit at. They also have small food area with decent options for a sports center. The basketball courts are pretty cramped though and feels a little dirty too.

Hubbard swim school is the best! In three months my daughter went from not wanting to go underwater to swimming underwater and doing backfloats. Theyre awesome!

Review №34

This is one of the top gyms in the country but the owner, Jeff Metzger, has branched out into basketball, swimming, cheer, even a little soccer. Not all of those have been as successful as gymnastics but its a super spot for youngsters. Its BIG, clean, bright and very colorful. From my visits around the country, its clearly in the top ranks, maybe the biggest and best.
