Voices of Happy Parents: Their Experiences and Feedback

My daughter absolutely fell in love with gymnastics when she had Ms. Rhonda as her instructor. The energy and encouragement from that teacher really gave my child the boost and self confidence she needed.

“Miss Rhonda is the absolute best! She is kind and caring with her students but direct and firm when needed and that stronger hand is exactly whatboys need.”
