My daughter had a wonderful experience during a 2021 summer camp session. It was her first foray with the sport and the instructors were kind and patient. She cant wait to attend again this summer!
Our 6 year old had an amazing time in summer camp last year, and came home talking non-stop about all the activities she did and all the gymnastics she learned. She loved it so much she asked to do twice as many weeks of camp this year.
My daughter had an amazing 8th birthday party here at prospect gymnastics . The staff is amazing and handled the 10 kids very well . Thank you again for having us !!
I cannot begin to express how much I appreciate Prospect Gymnastics. My daughter began attending when she was 7, and now she is almost 11! The coaches are amazing. They are encouraging and supportive while teaching the students a variety of skills. They push them in a positive way, but do not push them beyond what they can handle. The classes are generally small, but no matter the size of the class, my daughter still gets a great deal of personal attention and the coaches work with her on the skills she needs to improve.I was also impressed with the way the coaches maintained a connection with the students even when schools closed and everything went remote, They continued to hold virtual classes and connected with the students. Coach Breanna called our house to talk to my daughter and see how she was doing, and Coach Mina came and tumbled with my daughter in our backyard (equipped with mask and gloves of course). I am beyond grateful for Prospect Gymnastics for helping my daughter develop confidence and discipline while having fun and learning gymnastics!
My daughter has been with Prospect Gymnastics since its beginning. She chose it after being on the pre-team at both Brooklyn Gymnastics and Aviator, because she wanted a great community experience and a serious workout that wasn’t all about competition. The staff is engaging and able to differentiate for each student. My daughter joined the Rec Team and attended meets for fun, parties, and camps. She grew as an athlete but also as a person. I’m forever grateful to Mina and her team!
I am so appreciative of the way Prospect Gymnastics has pivoted to provide safe gymnastics classes during this pandemic. Our daughter participated in their outdoor camp and classes at Prospect Park and she absolutely loved it. They kept it going as long as weather and safety permitted and it was honestly one of the few things to really work out this fall. Thank you!
My daughter loves going to Prospect Gymnastics. She has been taking lessons for over 2 years now and has improved so much. She has learned the safe way of flipping around our apartment.Considering everything going on with Covid19, they offered online classes 3x a week for her class. I was able to schedule her private lessons, following the new guidelines. It was reassuring to see all the equipment being wiped down before her lesson started. All of the staff had masks on as well.Recommend this school for anyone looking for their children to gain structure, strength and fun while doing gymnastics.
I would give a lot more than 5 stars, if that was an option! My daughter is on her third day in camp and absolutely loves it! She raves about the coaches! They are professional, fun, caring and devoted. They teach in a way where my daughter loves to learn! They learn skills, build friendships and have a blast! I’m so grateful to Mina for running such an incredible program!!!
My daughter has been a student at Prospect Gymnastics since September 2019. She instantly took a liking to the coaches and their classes.I am here to say that our entire family was uber impressed by the studios transition to remote learning in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The coaches continued to provide high quality online gymnastics classes. I was skeptical at first, but the classes have truly offered my daughter something to look forward to every week. I am also amazed by the progress she has made through virtual instruction. I know that remote learning is not for everyone - but it really worked for her and I am so grateful to Prospect Gymnastics for allowing her to continue and improve upon this interest.
I had my daughters 7th birthday party at Prospect Gymnastics and all I can say is WOW!They did an incredible job! The booking process was super simple and professional. The staff was amazing and helpful on the actual day of the birthday party. They took all the stress and trouble out of making a birthday party and made it into an enjoyable and easy experience.The children had a fantastic time, and the coaches were so positive, encouraging and fun.We even had cake and pizza in their adorable outdoor area. It was a huge pleasure to work with Prospect gymnastics and we cant wait to come back.Thank you for a fantastic job!!
Prospect Gymnastics has provided my daughters with an excellent experience, taught them discipline and that hard work and training can lead to being able to accomplish anything. We love Mina and all of teh instructors. They are inclusive, caring, empathetic and absolutely great with all children. It can be a little hectic at drop off and pick up with such a small space, but we gladly trade that inconvenience for having such a wonderful place in the neighborhood. Thank you for all that you do for our kids!
My son has taken the Boys Gymnastics classes at Prospect Gymnastics for a little over a year and has also done two weeks of the summer camp and a few of the weekend workshops. In all of these experiences, we have found the coaches and the director to be incredibly positive, organized, and fun-loving while maintaining the safety protocols necessary for a sport like gymnastics. Coach Mina and her team really care about their students and are focused on building confidence and having fun in addition to gaining skills. We feel so lucky to have found them and have recommended them to friends.
My son and his friends had a great time. The staff were incredibly accommodating and great with the kids
We absolutely love Prospect Gymnastics!! We enrolled our son (1.5yo) in the mom and tot class this fall. I thought it was going to be just a fun activity for him but I am shocked and thrilled to see the skills and structure he learns from the class. Mina is the owner and teaches the class we attend. She is an absolute joy...so much so that my little guy talks about her alllll the time. Precious! Were thrilled that Prospect Gymnastics is in our neighborhood!
I have been taking my two children to Prospect Gymnastics since it opened. We live right nearby, and we were thrilled to have this amazing resource arrive in Prospect Park South. Mina and her team are fantastic, and my children have gotten a huge amount of the classes and open play sessions. It is a huge asset to the neighborhood, and I highly recommend that anyone with kids check it out!
Love love love this place!!! Mina takes care of every detail so excellently and gives caring attention to each child!!Fun, dedicated & professional staff!!Fully equiped gymnastics center!!My kids, and me, love going and cant wait for the next time!
I sent my 3 year old daughter here for classes over the summer and it was great! The teachers are kind, firm , focused, and communicative. The space is perfect for younger kids! (My daughter was at a big gym in the city before this and didnt do well because she was so distracted by everything else going on and all the extra space.) We also had her 3rd birthday party there, which she still talks about 8 months later -- the staff went out of their way to be helpful, the kids all had a great time, and they provided just the right amount of supplies! Open play, also fun. I highly recommend.
My daughter has been coming to Prospect Gymnastics for almost 2 years. Weve done their camps ( winter, spring, and summer) and classes, and she loves it all! We are planning on signing her back up for classes in the fall.She has learned alot and gained in confidence.Its such a gem in the neighborhood!
The most awesome and personable gymnastics experience in Brooklyn!My baby attended as the owner cut tape several years ago. We missed a few years and rejoined our now 6 year old this summer for a weeks session entirely focusing on family.Nothing less than an amazing experience. It was a perfect week with an amazing ending of dances tumbles and most of all, a unified front of children who seemed to ALL get along extremely well.Congratulations of upkept success Mina, Brianna, Roneka and every staff member of each day. You ALL did a perfect job with the kids!Namaste
My daughter went here until she aged out and my younger son has attended their summer camps. Both kids really loved it. The classes are small and the coaches all know what they are doing - the younger kids have fun and the bigger kids learn solid technique.
We love prospect gymnastics!!! We come all the way from another neighborhood cuz my girls insist this is the best place theyve ever learned gymnastics! And they are right! This is a very professional, inviting, and fun place and my kids learned so much in just a few sessions!!
DO NOT SEND YOUR BLACK CHILDREN HERE! This my absolute 1st review ever online, but I felt so violated by this company that I had to. Do not send your child to this place if you are black. They charged me for my 4 years daughter a trial class for $20 with a group of kids but the white couple that came immediately behind us approx 8 received a trial class ALONE for free. When I was came up to pay both the owner Mina and especially the instructor was surprised I was paying. The difference was the owner recovered faster but the instructor looked at her like why is she giving us money - utterly confused. When I asked her why is she surprised Im paying she said because she new she only started with us this summer. The summers almost over shes 3 months into the semester! Im certain Im not the first person taking a trial class with this instructor! oh please. Mina was very helpful at suggesting new places to take my child that was not there instead of trying to see if she could accommodate the scheduling. When she saw that I was uncomfortable with the situation she gave my daughter a free leotard which I wanted to give back to her but my kid was so pleased I held it in not to be petty. When I got home and I thought about the straight forward pissing in my shoes and telling me its raining routine for $20 I emailed her that she can take her leotard back and give me my money! The instructors are very darling and gentle with the kids. but the management is obviously very racist and if you dont speak up they will get the best of you while acting as if they are trying to help. Mina: as I told you before in which you saw me speaking to the parent I asked the childs parent if they were charged she said NO! So I am not lying! I dont want this $5 leotard that you are selling for $40! You gave it to me for free because as you stated you felt bad your behavior was unquestionable even as you joked you didnt know if the lil black kid in your company leotard was a girl or boy because of his hair! I will not remove my review! How dare you call me a liar when I spoke to the childs mom directly. As I stated to you before anything you charge for one child should be the same across the board. I will return this $40 leotard and you can keep that 20 bucks and let the next black kid try out for free! You tried to find us another class for us because you didnt want us there! Thanks for the one token black kid on your website 🙄 I will gladly pay more elsewhere for better service where I dont have to pay more than the white family. It took 4 days for your coach to get back to us! Your service is horrendous. The two young girls you have coaching were the nicest thing about your gym 🙄 And if you charged that family after I made a complaint Im certain its only because you dont want my statements to be true because the mom informed me her trial class for free when I told her oh they charged me she looked baffled! All she gave me was the I dunno shoulder shrug. Treat all families fairly! I dont care if your trial class is 100 buck as long as I am not the only one that has to pay $100. Im done with this say whatever you want Im taking my child elsewhere and you can have this leotard back and you can keep the $20.
This gym is so great for the community and has a very well trained staff! Would highly recommend for any child. We love Mina and her staff!!!
This is a great place for open play for little ones like my toddler! A relaxed environment with friendly staff. Ive also appreciated the tips from the owner about child development.
My daughter enjoys gymnastics here! Staff are very pleasant
This a great play environment for children and has proven to really benefit every child that attends. The skills they learn are amazing and the children absolutely love it.
This is such a warm and nurturing place. My daughter looks forward to her classes all week and wont miss them for the world!
I love it its very helpful for. My child which is 3 years old and she found her love for gymnastic
Our 3 year old has been going here for a year and a half now and she loves it.
My daughter is in love with this place!

2022-04-27Our two kids (4 & 6) attended Prospect Gymnastics summer camp for one or two weeks last year and LOVED it -- by far the favorite part of their summer. Gym is fairly small but has all the equipment (including a huge trampoline that they still havent stopped talking about) as well as a backyard. Day is well structured with plenty of gymnastics instruction plus other activities, including crafts and a rest period, and includes a good chunk of outdoor time. Instructors are great. Hard to get in touch with via phone which can be frustrating, but very responsive and approachable on email and in person. All around lovely camp, and kids are counting down the days till they go again.

2022-04-28My daughter did summer camp at Prospect gymnastics last year & has asked if she can do it again this summer. She loves the crafts & other activities just as much as the gymnastics. She’s always eager to show off her new skills! I really appreciate their precautions with Covid & highly recommend—especially for kids who need to be active but don’t want to be outside all day.

2022-04-27My 4-year-old had never taken gymnastics before, and is generally very nervous about trying something new. But she immediately loved her week of summer camp at Prospect Gymnastics. The teacher made her feel at ease, the program involved just the right mix of physical activity and arts & crafts, and she looked forward to returning each day. In fact, shes been talking about wanting to do it again since last summer, so weve signed her up for summer camp again. A great program, five stars, I highly recommend.

2022-05-11We had the BEST time at Prospect Gymnastics, thanks to Tami for helping us arrange all the details. On the day of our daughters 3rd birthday party, Coach Bri was exceptional and so responsive to the kids’ energy and needs. She was super flexible with the weather and accommodating the pop up tent we borrowed from a friend. Rocky’s pizza (nearby vendor) delivered on time and the pies were piping hot - in case future parties need food options. It was a hit!Our expectations for Prospect Gymnastics were definitely exceeded, and we talked the whole way home about how little we even noticed the bad weather. Our daughter loved it! Definitely a great, affordable option for a kids birthday party!

2022-05-05My daughter has fallen in love with Prospect Gymnastics. We have been there for a year and plan to continue. In fact, we began with taking one class per week and now she has insisted on signing up for two per week. The staff strikes a balance between being warm and instructive. The environment is intimate and inviting. Weve participated in many of the popular gymnastics programs in Brooklyn and this is by far our favorite one!

2022-05-11We had a wonderful experience with Prospect Gymnastics celebrating our daughters 6th birthday. 2 of their amazing coaches entertained and instructed our daughter and her friends with non-stop games, gymnastics demonstrations and activities for 2 hours. They included every child and made sure it was a special day for our daughter. We highly recommend having Prospect Gymnastics host your childs next party.

2022-06-06We had a wonderful birthday party at Prospect Gymnastics, this past weekend. The coaches had everything set up, when we arrived, and were super helpful. All the kids had a blast. I would absolutely come back, another year, and recommend them!

2022-04-27My daughter loves Prospect Gymnastics (PG). She has been going to PG for about 4 years now and I see so much improvement with her skills and focus. Last year she really enjoyed PGs summer camp. It was the first time she tried it and enjoyed the weekly routines they learned along with the engaging activities and the best part...the Friday mini show campers perform for family members. All of the coaches are great and they really listen to parents are dedicated to the helping the gymnasts learn.
