My son was a member for about six years. While there were some highlights—he was in pretty good shape physically and the first few meets helped build confidence—overall, it was a dreadful experience.Dues are extreme, which is to be expected in any sport, but the kids are treated like cattle. Leadership doesn’t care for the individual. Only the bottom line. Even the head guy is breathtakingly rude, somehow forgetting that you’re paying him and not the other way around.If $200+/month in dues isn’t enough, you are constantly in a cycle of fundraising for them. Fail to meet their absurdly high goals, and they’ll make you pay out of pocket. On top of that, they require you work the meets as “volunteers”, and even make you pay for the shirt.The facilities are dreadfully outdated and constantly filthy. You’d swear they just moved out. And good luck getting the attention of the person at the counter.They constantly operate far above what should be legal capacity for the gym, with a veritable herd of parents crammed into the lobby during pick-up times. Fire hazard anyone?The few good coaches they had fled, leaving inexperienced kids in their late teens and early twenties to “herd cats.” As such, bullying is rampant among the kids, so much so our son would come home in tears.Do yourself a favor and drive a little further to Edmond or Bounce, where there’s smaller groups with coaches who won’t treat your children like they’re a burden and you’ll see your kids actually win medals.One final note: I wrote this a year after my son quit. The more I think about the experience the worse it gets.

The waiting room is in terrible condition. The chairs are broken,stained and need to be replaced. Front entrance staff not very helpful or friendly. Mr Conner needs to spend some money on his waiting room furniture and chairs.

Coaches are good, gym and equipment are good but the receptionist is rude, the gym has extremely long wait times for advancement and they do not value their customers, also they have poor communication. For new people just getting into gymnastics this probably isn’t a good spot for you, it seemed very much about who you know, not what you know or how good you are. Also Don’t count on their social media accounts for information, they don’t share it on there, they expect you to follow their website but you wouldn’t know that because their communication is weak. Bottom line is I am pulling my daughter out of Bart Conner because of the receptionist. They need to re evaluate what is important to that gym, the customers or that rude unhelpful lady at the front seat.

I wanted so badly to love this gym. It was recommended to us by a professional, and we were excited to try. My son has multiple severe health issues and I was alarmed to see that despite me being through on intake paperwork, none of his information was saved to his portal information, and on the first day of classes his coaches were clueless and unaware of his issues. Of course I pulled them aside and spoke to them, but I was shocked that it wasn’t communicated to them. When we made the decision to withdraw and asked for 30 money back guarantee they advertise on the website, they argued with us and claimed my son has been enrolled in classes there before. He has only ever been enrolled and attended one single class. The customer service was awful. It took over a week of calling multiple times a day, and driving out there to finally get ahold of someone to help us. Again, we really wanted to love this place- but I just did not feel comfortable or welcome. We will be returning to our old gym.

Attended a meet there. The bleachers are old and very dangerous, my husband even tightened a bolt in them while we were there. Worst of all was how they award. My black daughter got evenly tied for 3rd and they refused to give her a medal, but awarded the bronze to the other girl—who happened to be a student at their own gym. Other ties got the same things though.

I enrolled my son, and before we ever attended any classes realized we had a spot at our gym. I informed a woman at bart conner by phone, that we wouldn't be attending the course I enrolled for. Just got off the phone after days of phone tag. And was told my son did go there. Lol! And that they would not refund the 2 extra months of charges to my card. That was charged knowing my son never attended... And knowing we cancelled the membership. I would say based on that i wouldnt feel comfortable ever referring someone to this gym. ?

Attended a gymnastics meeting today. Level 3,4,5.I found it very cramped, the girls barely had room to move.But the worst thing was, they had a radio playing over the girls floor music.Very disappointed in facility.
