JAG Gym

JAG is the real deal! My daughter was attending another gym, but we were having a hard time finding classes that would fit into our schedules. Since JAG offers way more classes (and the ability to do makeups), we decided to make the switch. From the moment I stepped into the gym, I was blown away. The 25,000 square foot facility is impressive and the coaches are really great. My daughter has made incredible progress in just a short amount of time and she loves it so much that we just committed to joining the team! This gym is not cheap and the location is not super convenient for us, but it is totally worth it to see the huge smile on my daughter’s face every second that she is training at JAG!

I am a nanny & take the child I care for here– she looks forward to it every week! The coaches are awesome, the kids get the direction and attention they need to confidently master a skill with proper guidance and healthy encouragement.

The best gymnastics classes on the Westside! Enthusiastic, friendly, competent instructors that build character and confidence. Love the quotes on the wall: Everybody falls but champions keep getting up! Where there’s a will there’s a way!
Complimentary valet parking. Great birthday party venue. Free-​wifi. Cute boutique filled with gymnastics attire and other toys and gifts perfect for birthday presents. Fun Summer camps and great evening drop off Saturday workshops perfect for date nights with the spouse or significant other.

My daughters love JAG! They were invited to a birthday party at JAG and had so much fun at the party they decided to try out a class.
They love JAG gym! They had been to 2 other gymnastics schools in the area, my extremely shy oldest daughter felt like she didn’t quite fit in at either place. The coaches at JAG were so nice to her, and the girls in her group were all nice. My youngest at times gets a bit distracted by all that’s going on but the coaches understand that it’s just part of her personality. I love that they can adjust their coaching style to the needs of the child.
I’ll be honest that they have had a few coaching changes, not sure if this is just the nature of gymnastics coaching. Yes it’s not the cheapest gym in the area BUT they love it at JAG and as long as they are passionate about something and happy, I’m happy too!

What a joke. These guys are omly in it for the money. I understand that it is a business but when they treat you as parents, with such disrespect it is a joke.
Go somewhere else. Youll be glad you did.

I went to Jag Gym for the first time ever today for a Birthday party. Firstly, the gym has NO air conditioning. There are just fans blowing hot air around, so it feels like your in a sauna! Be prepared to sweat by just standing around. Secondly, we were told parents could not accompany their children around the bouncy house, slide etc. my son is barely even four and understandably wants me by his side for a few minutes until he feels comfortable. The staff were really unhelpful and the kids were just ushered around by a coach to each apparatus for a few minutes at a time. The best part was really when the kids all sat down to eat, but even then there were not enough seats for the adults, so you had to stand to eat. It’s definitely overpriced and too far from where I live so will not be coming back!

This is a wonderful place. My daughter has taken classes there and we just finished one of the week long camps they put on during the summer. My daughter is all smiles when she is there and tells everyone how much she loves it. The coaches are super professional and I have to say a lot of fun. Management is awesome and it really is a clear example of how positive energy and thoughtfulness can trickle down from the top of a company. Honestly, I could go on and on about them. I highly recommend them. We don’t live close but they are well worth the drive.

Rene is an amazing coach, my son loves her Flips class, the kids are friendly and always positive with eachother. Rene has such a passive and calming vibe, I couldn’t be happier, thanks for encouraging my son.

We love JAG but tuition is expensive. $ 300 for 6 hours a month! All other gymnastic schools are asking half of this amount.

This place is so expensive and so busy and chaotic. I think for some it’s great because if you find a good teacher and kids love the big gym and the classes and you don’t mind paying a fortune it’s great. Every time we went we experienced some kind of problem with the classes on Saturdays but It’s mainly because its just so busy and chaotic.
It was very nice the owner wrote to me about one of the problem days so I kept giving it another try.
I heard mixed reviews so I kept going to give it the benefit of the doubt but I do have to say for what they charge, it’s not worth it. We did the winter camp too which was so expensive for the time they were there. My kids liked it but I do not think it was worth it.
There are some really great teachers so If you do go make sure you stay and watch, some teachers are better than others. There is a big difference. We tried three teachers and we liked one of them. Saturdays are so busy so try to find another time to go.
They have so many classes going on at the same time and birthday parties too so you don’t feel too special.

Went here for a birthday party. My child had a good time. The staff was fun and nice. Food was brought in. Advise: Book later in the day and on a Sunday.

Jag Gym is incredible. Our 3 year old son has been participating in classes for 4 months now… We’ve done just about every class out there and nothing compares to Jag. It’s pricey… But he the hourlong class and skills he learns are worth it.
Highly recommend. Also… My son has had a few different coaches as we go once a week and I have been very impressed by all of them.

If they split up the rating system for quality and value I would give quality 4 stars and value 2 stars. It was expensive when we joined a few years ago, and the prices have gone up twice. Now, we pay $ 65 a class. For two kids we pay $ 520 a month, and they no longer offer financial aid to non-​team members.
Yes, the kids enjoy the class, and most of the teachers are very good. The facility is state of the art. However, unless your child is on team, don’t expect improvement in flexibility or quality of movement like pointed toes and proper posture. To me, these are as fundamental to gymnastics as strength and should be equally weighted in class.
At this point we are looking for alternatives.

We really do love this gym, but i have to take a star off for price. For preschool classes it’s $ 200 a month. And while they do have a very lenient makeup policy, it’s just not possible for us to do makeups given my daughter’s school schedule and our location. When you get into the higher level 90 minute classes it’s even more expensive. And if on average you’re only making it to 3 classes a month, I just can’t see it being worth it unless your child is a future Olympic athlete. Sadly we just canceled our membership for this reason. We’ll miss you JAG.

My kids (ages 4 and 2) take a weekend class here but we did my son’s 4^th bday party here and it was AMAZING.
The staff ROCKS. So on it. So helpful. So friendly and nice. Totally worth every $$.
PROS
— Package includes all the set up, paper goods, etc You just pick out colors
— I arrived to a room that was all set up, all I had to do was bring some additional food (fruit trays and water) They even have tubs for your drinks, you just bring the ice and can bring your own drinks or have them provide for extra charge.
— As kids are arriving, there is an area for other kids to play. Once all kids are there, they break up into 2 groups and put kids through an hour long work out /​gym class. They get to jump on giant trampolines, jump into a foam pit, giant bouncy house, etc
— At the end my son had a medal ceremony and a big group photo with all kids
— They reel kids back in, put on gloves for cleanliness and plate the pizza for the kids.
(first they sanitized all the kids hands for us)
— While kids were eating, the «coaches» took bags and put all the gifts in the bags for us and cleaned up
— They set up an area for bday boy to sit by cake while we sing. Sang happy bday and then they cut up and distributed cake for us.
They did 90% of the work. I just helped determine what to keep and what to toss.
All the parents /​kids love the party. I have not one single bad thing to say about this place. It’s not cheap but you get your money’s worth and most importantly, you get to enjoy the party because you are not running ragged doing it all yourself.
A+ … LOVE IT !!

Definitely not the low frills cold gymnastics studio I went to as a kid on the East Coast. This is where the olympic hopefuls and uncoordinated toddlers train in harmony. We have met several teachers and love them all — kudos to whoever interviews and hires the staff! There is a second floor waiting room that provides a terrific view of the gym — adoring parents can watch their kids’ every move. There is also a large retail area and decent assortment of snacks and drinks. Oh, and did I mention FREE VALET PARKING? Jag’s not cheep, but you get a lot for your money so I’m not complaining.

The Staff in the JAG academy are rude and they just cheated my daughter out of four make up classes and a full month’s tuition. Different people claim different policies, and their ethics are troubled. I would NEVER recommend anyone taking their child to JAG.

Great expensive gym that allows you to do make-​ups for regularly scheduled classes you miss for whatever reason. What company large or small does that nowadays? Not many but JAG does and it is incredibly helpful if you have a busy life. Fantastic instructors, massively big facility, and surprisingly quick to get to even from Santa Monica. We jump on the freeway and exit at Robertson and are there in 10 mins. Sometimes you may even see a few celebrities. We tried several other gyms before this and this one blows the other ones away. Our almost 4 yr old has been going since he was 2 plus and he loves it. The best advice I could give to parents is to go check this place out. You can have a fun experience or transition to some serious Olympic style gymnastics. This place is the real deal.

I took my rather shy 3.5 YO daughter to her first class today and boy did she have a great time! Is like I didn’t know her.
Teacher Sarah totally understood her personality and taught her in a way it was a game more than a routine.
My little one loved the class and I loved the way she was treated, everyone in the personnel is great, helpful and positive, and you can feel a good sense of community between the parents.
We are staying here as long as my daughter wants!

If you want to give a kid a chance to run around, tumble, jump, flip and more, bring ‘em to JAG. Kids from about 3 to 12.
This place is amazing. It’s huge! Think giant warehouse – but it’s filled with gymnastic activities. Mats, bars, ginormous trampolines that have their own runways. Really, these kids today. They’re so lucky!
Instructors are fun and hip. There are also many cool, positive but not sappy banners which proclaim and encourage good character traits. It’s very sweet, and humbling, too. Kids can go for an hour, solo or in a group. They’ve got camp, they’ve got classes, even the occasional birthday party. And, yes, it can get crowded… but because it’s so damn HUGE, there’s no problem.
Though some work directly with JAG, there’s many subletters, too. BIG FUN, who works primarliy with kids with special needs, is there. You can also often see some very intense preteens who look like they are training for the Olympics. I don’t even know who all is there, but if I were a kid looking to blow off steam, with instruction, I would love to come here.
