Somersaults Gymnastics Center - Cedar Rapids, Iowa

My children take classes here and I genuinely believe the coaches do a good job teaching them all they need to know about gymnastics to enhance their skills.

My main issue with Somersaults is their office staff and billing practices. They charge fees (1-3% I believe for bank transfer and credit card) for everything excluding cash and check and require customers to have an authorization set up to pay for services. I pay cash every month prior to the due date of the bill to ensure I do not pay these fees. I paid my bill via cash for next month's charges with a receipt more than a week prior to the deadline and now this morning I see I have the next month's charges charged my account so now I have to argue with them to fix it. Another big problem is they see no harm in what they do. The last time this happened, they saw no harm in what they did and defended their practices even though blatantly they were not following their own billing practices and policies.

TLDR - There are other gymnastics training centers in the area, while I can't vouch for them whether they are good or not; I don't and you shouldn't either trust Somersaults.

This was my daughters second time being a student at somersaults and this is my last time giving this establishment my money. I have referred 5-6 kids to go here as well as pay for my daughter to go and the disrespectful treatment has been repeated. We haven’t had an issue with the instructors, it’s always the office staff. This time it was Kayla who was extremely rude when I called (after calling for a week straight with no answer mind you) she accused me of lying about seeing an email from them etc etc. When you spend this amount of money on your children’s activities you expect to at least be spoken to with respect. Extremely disappointed in them allowing their staff to repeat this behavior.

My daughter has loved every minute of her classes at Somersaults! The coaches are always supportive and motivating. At every turn she is encouraged to do her personal best and above all, to try! She has amazed herself at times with what she can do... not to mention her proud family! Thank you, Somersaults staff, instructors and coaches, for caring so much about the kids and providing an atmosphere of excellence in which they can learn, practice and achieve confidence with each new skill!

We have been going to Somersaults for over 14 years. The instructors are friendly and knowledgeable. The travel team is well organized and goes to many meets, including out-of-state, if you wish. The new facilities are top-notch and sizeable. My children have enjoyed every minute of their time at the gym!

My daughter has grown so much since starting gymnastics! She was shy and unwilling to step out of her comfort zone, and now she is blossoming. She is getting stronger week to week, and her core strength is amazing!!
The coaches and staff are always friendly. The gym is huge and always well kept. Thank you Somersaults!

My daughter just started going here and I am amazed at the work Robin can do. My daughter loves it and is learning very quickly here and having a lot of fun. Fast forward 4 years and my daughter is loving it still! She is now part of the competitive team!

If you are looking for a family friendly gymnastic center to provide your child with some great exercise and basic fundamentals of gymnastics this is the perfect place. They have wonderful recreation classes for children starting from 18 months and up. This is the place my daughter feel in love with gymnastics and made some of her life long friends. It is also where we as a family gained some of our best friends. Somersaults is a great gymnastic center with family centered approach. Best thing we ever did for our family.
