Kidsport

I must agree with many comments about organization & communication is quite poor. My experience was not very positive either. My kids didnt like going too much so i cancelled the second week but encountered attitudes over it. I also didn’t like the attitudes I saw w some of the kids who apparently were well known by staff. I was told my six yr old would be with other kids the same age & this didn’t happen & one reason we didn’t go back for a second week. It was over 2 months before i was issued a refund and that qas incorrect. So tired of dealing with them i didnt even call about the rest they owed me. Professionalism is lacking here and not a good way to spread a positive word about your business. When i had concerns it wasnt there fault, they had lots or reason/​excuses. With one lady in particular you never knew what mood she’d be in. I don’t bad mouth businesses and this is my second review ever so its rare for me but i felt it needed to be said. I saw new faces so hopefully the business brought in new excited insteuctors and some organization can begin. I don’t bad mouth businesses but if someone asks I won’t hold back either.

We recently joined Kidsport to become part of their competitive cheer team and I can not say enough good things about them! Coach Brandon is top-​notch and in just a month and a half has taught my daughter how to perfectly execute a triple back-​handspring run pass, which she had been trying to learn for 2 YEARS at the competitive cheer gym we used to go to. He seriously knows his stuff, and the girls truly like him and are motivated by his knowledge and encouragement. The entire staff here is wonderful and all are extremely friendly. I’ve never witnessed any disorganization of any kind, nor have I seen any safety concerns. I drive over 30 miles each way twice a week to get to the gym, and it is totally worth it. My girl LOVES it and would take more classes if she had time!

I really, really wanted to like this place for my daughters. I placed them in an after school program here, gymnastics and martial arts, plus paid for the additional time to have them complete their homework before I picked them up.
The facility wasn’t perfectly organized, which I expected after seeing the reviews posted here before, but I didn’t let that dissuade me. I was disappointed to find out they did not offer transportation from my youngest daughter’s school any longer, but a discount was given on some of her classes to make up for the fact that I had to drive her from school to KidSport.
Less than two months into the programs, the martial arts teacher quit, and there was no replacement lined up. My older daughter was upset when she arrived and didn’t know what to do or where to go, so was in tears. One of the staff, instead of offering her some support or comfort, told her to «Stop whining and being a baby.» Unacceptable.
The breaking point came last week when I got to the facility to drop my youngest daughter off after school, the day before Thanksgiving break. My older daughter tells me that she got left at school. The person responsible for picking up all of the students from the elementary school didn’t see her right away, and just assumed we were on vacation despite not receiving a note/​call/​email from us as is outlined in their protocol, so LEFT WITHOUT HER. The school, knowing my 9 year old little girl was left behind, called them and she came back to get my daughter.
No one from KidSport called me to let me know my child had been left, or that this mistake had been made. I only found out by accident. And when I brought it up, the woman who left her behind laughed, as if it was somehow funny.
I hate having to post a negative review, but when it comes to the basic safety of a child, I cannot in good conscience let it go. I can’t even think what might have happened to my little girl had a responsible teacher not been there to watch over her when the people we had paid to do so failed miserably.

My daughter has been going to Kidsport for over five years now. Currently, she’s on the competitive trampoline team, and you can’t find a better head coach than Terri and her assistant, Amanda! She’s done such an awesome job with the entire team. I couldn’t see us going anywhere else for my daughter’s fantastic training!
In fact, every coach they have there is fully trained and knows the best and safest way to teach the kids. They even have parents on site that are USA Gymnastics trained in Risk Management and Safety. Love it!

5 yr old daughters dreams of dancing have been crushed. This studio has the worst management I have ever seen in any business. It is very obvious that they do not survive on repeat business from students or teachers since none return after 1 year. I tried calling several times to talk to owner and sent multiple emails with no response about studio concerns. Front office girls are high school age and only there to answer phones and take payments, they take messages but calls are never returned. This years teacher gave 6 months notice for her 3 month leave during dance and yet owner did not find an appropriate replacement to fill her spot. The substitutes were inexperienced and dance recital was changed due to lack of communication. Dance recital was also inside gym part of business on a rented dance floor instead of our promised auditorium with a stage, to top it off recital fee was $ 90. Costumes for recital were ordered 3 weeks prior to it due to lack of follow through and communication of owner. The regular teacher was wonderful and did the best she could with all the constraints.

I have to say that I am a I am a supporter and a fan of Kidsport Georgetown. Here at Kidsport the child is what comes first. We love our kids, have fun with them and build them up. We develop relationships with our clients and love hearing stories about the kids progress in all areas of their lives. We have clients and Kidsport members that have been apart of our program for over 5 years. I have taught ⁴⁄₅ year olds then come to teach their younger sibling years later.
We take pride in our work, and do our best to keep things fun, entertaining for the kids as well as teach them life lessons. We have new group of staff members that are now on board with the Kidsport program and we look forward to seeing the children grow and learn over the years!

I enrolled my 5 yr old in swim lessons and we were really disappointed.
The teacher we had was REALLY inexperienced. She had zero teaching skills and had no idea how to keep the kids engaged or excited about learning to swim.
At one lesson, an older more experienced teacher stepped in and took over as she saw the younger teacher was doing so poorly. The older teacher got my child to do more in 5 min than the younger teacher was able to do in the first 40 min of class. I asked to switch to the older teacher’s class but unfortunately she was just there to help out in the next class (and didn’t teach there regularly).
We WASTED the $ 90 for the lessons that is for sure. My older kids had gone to a swim school in Leander but she isn’t teaching anymore :(
Do not waste your money or time here, find a place that has EXPERIENCED teachers.

I have had my child enrolled in the Kidsport after-​school program. While I sense no «immediate» danger I am consistently concerned by the staff’s lack of enforcement of proper pick up protocol. I have never been asked to check in/​out. In addition to lacking basic cleanliness and organization, the facility appears to be an accident waiting to happen. We won’t be going back next year.
