Designer Athletics: Memberships, Fees, Classes, and Facilities

We can’t say enough good things about Designer Athletes. Both my girls have improved their skills in just one month, yes that’s right, one month. Not only have they grown stronger and more skilled, but their confidence has skyrocketed too. For a moment we almost quit cheer, but finding Designer Athletes completely changed that. The coaches are beyond incredible, patient, supportive, and truly invested in every athlete’s success. They take the time to correct technique, encourage progress, and celebrate every accomplishment, big or small. You can tell they truly care about the kids and love what they do. The staff greets us with smiles and positive energy, and the athletes cheer each other on. It’s such a great environment for kids to build strength, teamwork, and self confidence. My girls trained at a full time cheer and gymnastics gym in Orlando for three years. The progress they have made here in Designer Athletes in such a short time is unbelievable. If I could add a million gold stars I totally would because this gym has earned each one. We are so glad we found this amazing program. It has been a total game changer for our family. If you’re looking for a place where your child will be challenged, supported, and inspired, Designer Athletes is the place to be. We can’t recommend them enough!

Plenty of families adore this gym — which is why we kept dropping in over the past year. This latest visit? Whole different universe. The coach was physically in the room but spiritually on her phone. My daughter described her as “kinda dismissive,” and the complete lack of interaction afterward really tied that bow neatly. I reached out through the app… nothing. Responded to their automated text… nothing. Apparently the only place they answer is Instagram, which feels like a bold customer-service strategy. When they finally replied, we were told — plot twist — that my daughter actually belonged in Intro to Level 1 now. No explanation for why she’d spent months in Advanced Level 1 before. Just a tidy little paragraph that sounded suspiciously like it had been copied from a handbook. The “feedback from multiple coaches” also read like a fortune cookie for beginners. They never addressed the original issue (the coach being dismissive); they just doubled down on the level placement as if repetition equals logic. Lots of people clearly have wonderful experiences here, but the communication we encountered was baffling, inconsistent, and unintentionally comedic.
