What parents say
5.0Our child started attending SXL Gymnastics in primary school, after previously attending a wonderful birthday party there. She started in the navy group and enjoyed leaning new skills and participating in the end of year performances. The coaches were warm, engaging and encouraging. It was great to collect her after class and hear about what they were working on and any improvements that she had made. The excellent coaching, warmth, fun and care has continued. Our daughter progressed to the Elite Competition Squad and becoming a Coach at SXL. SXL supports the athletes to develop both their skills and their passion for acrobatic gymnastics. Having seen our daughter as both the student and a coach at SXL, I have enjoyed seeing the care and enthusiasm in their whole coaching team. Seeing the coaches celebrate and cheer when the gymnasts, at all levels, acquire a new skill is heart warming. The practice competitions are always looked forward to and a wonderful opportunity for students to see other levels perform and for families to come together to cheer the athletes on. The SXL family is great fun to travel to competitions with. The athletes make signs and cheer each other on during routines. The end of year concerts are worth a mention too. They are a joyful celebration and every group at the gym performs. SXL Gymnastics is a wonderful club to be involved with. I can’t recommend them highly enough.
5.0My son came to SXL in 2023 on a personal recommendation from another family when he found he was stalling in other gymnastics and ninja classes, joining the recreational parkour program on a Saturday afternoon. Over the past 3 years, the joy in his face when he comes to class, the community and friends he has built, and the skills he has learned are incredibly impressive. After two years he was asked to progress to the competition squad, and he was initially reluctant to step up and compete. The care, encouragement, and compassion shown by the coaching staff built his confidence and by the end of the season the reluctant 'promotion' was not only participating but placing and winning in his divisions. The coaching staff at SXL know how to support and develop the 'whole child' and prepare them not only for competition now but lessons they'll use for their whole life.
5.0My daughter has been coming to SXL since she was 5. Ten years later she has progressed to their top squad and absolutely loves it here. The care and dedication from the coach’s to nurture her talent has been wonderful.
5.0Our daughter started way back in the Kindy Pink Class just for a bit of fun, but now that she’s moved into the Elite Squad, it has well and truly turned into her second home. The bond she has with her teammates and the coaches—Xilin, John, Shennei, to name just a few—is incredible. They aren't just trainers to her; they are like family. They’ve mentored her and built her confidence from the ground up, and we’ve seen that self-assurance shine in everything she does. Balancing training with her other commitments has taught her a level of discipline that goes way beyond the gym floor. We honestly couldn't ask for a better environment for our daughter to grow up in.
5.0As I was writing this review, my daughter asked what I'm doing. So I told her and then I realised that the most genuine review you'll get will be from a girl who comes to the club for the past six years religiously. And this is what she said: "SXL is like my second family. I made great friends and I met awesome coaches. We work hard but we also have a laugh. Yes, it's a lot of work, hard work, discipline and dedication from both, the gymnasts and the coaches. But the results speak for itself. I feel strong, healthy, safe, encouraged and happy. We celebrate many occasions together as a group and the coaches prepare fun activities during the year. I would recommend SXL to anyone who is not afraid of working hard, listening and learning. I love acro and I wouldn't want to do acro anywhere else except at my club - SXL."
