My Gym Waterford Lakes is such an amazing place!!..After taking my son there, you really see first hand the wonderful staff ,led by Bruce who was so welcoming and kind, and how they really take the time to make sure all the kids have fun and are so patient with the children. The classes they offer are so fun, engaging, and a great place to start learning some structure fun for children. Not only the great staff and the fun environment, the place was exceptionally clean which of course is so important especially during these time. I highly recommend My Gym Waterford Lakes to anyone looking for a wonderful and fun activity place for their children!!

We LOVE this My Gym! We drive 50 minutes from Cocoa Beach a few times a week to come here. He is always greeted by his name when we arrive! My son Jackson is thriving and is learning new skills. He is 25 months and has never been in a class environment so I’m so happy that he is learning social skills with other children, he now knows what circle time is and is learning how to participate with other kids and follow directions. The free time gym area is amazingly clean, air conditioned! The staff is always friendly and keeping the kids engaged with activities and different groups of activities.

They are not autism friendly. Brought my son a few months ago on a Wednesday evening to try it out. They expected my son to know what to do right away and be able to keep up with the kids that had already been there before. One of the other kids excluded my son out of an activity and the gym instructor laughed about it. Bad experience. The instructor was some middle aged spanish man. He was favoring one of the little girls. And moms...if youre going to bring your girls here, make sure they wear something appropriate, not a skirt, skort, or super short shorts that show the childs underwear, especially if the instructor is a man!

This is hands down the best gym in the neighborhood! From day one the coaches and members were so welcoming and made me feel right at home. I would highly recommend everyone to just stop by and see what makes this community the BEST!

My Gym Waterford is AMAZING! My son turned 1 in March at the beginning of the pandemic. After months of being home, he become super timid and afraid of everyone except for me and my husband. We started to bring him to My Gym once we felt a bit more comfortable, and he was so afraid at first. We kept up with it and brought him each week until he fell in love. We just recently celebrated his 2nd birthday party at My Gym and it was amazing! The staff is so personable, and is perfect with children of all ages-babies included. They are excellent at communication, keep the gym super clean and always make us not only comfortable, but very welcomed. We recommend My Gym to everyone we know, and think everyone should be bringing their kiddos there!

Debating whether to host a childs birthday party at your house or at My Gym? Look no further! My Gym is your answer! Start to finish they handle the planning, execution AND cleanup. Do you want to enjoy your childs birthday or be busy handing out drinks and appetizers?! Trust me, you cant go wrong!I cant sing My Gym at Waterford Lakes enough praise! I have attended a birthday party here as well as hosted our sons 4th birthday here as a result. The facility is clean and very fun for kids (and adults) of all ages. Most notably, the staff are simply amazing, all focused on making the experience special for the birthday person and all guests. Most importantly, our son had an amazing day that he still is talking about weeks later!

Our daughter’s 3rd birthday party at My Gym Waterford Lakes yesterday was flawless. I was ready to write this review before we had the party (because they made planning the event so stress-free), but I am glad I waited because I have many more good things to share. Our coaches were a talented group of party hosts! They greeted everyone, called the kids by their names, kept a dozen toddlers entertained for 2 hours, served food, anticipated everyone’s needs, and made it all look easy!From the beginning, they took time to explain the party details once over the phone and again in person about 10 days before the party when things began to get exciting. They took the initiative to follow-up with me about things they needed to know to plan effectively and answered all of my questions by phone, in person, and over text message, reassuring me every step of the way that we were going to have a blast. They were right.During the party, there were many opportunities for me to enjoy the big day with my daughter as well as take time to visit with family that came in for the festivities. The coaches had age-appropriate activities planned, facilitated free-play time, made sure everyone enjoyed the gym safely, and were 100% engaged with us for the entire party. I had a few opportunities to stand back and watch the magic and I have to say, the positive energy, confidence, and teamwork of these coaches was outstanding.It was the little things, like being ready to light the candle, putting a straw in my daughter’s juice for her, and asking whether we wanted to present the cake to our daughter where she was sitting or if we wanted to bring her over to the cake table, that made a big difference. They made sure we had a family photo by the cake and then served everyone so we could relax and enjoy cake too. Their thoughtfulness in these actions is what I will remember the most.At the end of the party, the coaches even helped our daughter put on her shoes and walk her to the car telling her that all of her presents were going home with her. We couldn’t have dreamed of a better party. If you’re still reading this, I hope you give yourself the gift of My Gym party so you can enjoy the party too. When I look at the pictures and videos from yesterday, all I see are smiles! Thank you to everyone at My Gym Waterford Lakes!

The coaches love the kids and will work with you. They will sanitize everything after every single class. My son has severe separation anxiety. So this place is a perfect place for my son cause he will have his mama around him the whole time!

My daughter loves this gym! They have amazing activities for babies and toddlers and it’s great to see the kids interact. They were accommodating of the schedule changes due to Covid-19 and you constantly see the coaches wiping equipment down and setting up fun activities. The Halloween holiday party was the most fun I’ve seen my daughter have and I am happy to recommend them to my friends with young children. They have a caring group of coaches that are doing their best to accommodate each child and their parents. While they seem busy at times, they always do their best to get back in touch about schedule changes and concerns/misunderstandings. Were currently inactive members but Im looking forward to going back with my daughter when our schedules permit. Theyre worth every penny and moment! Give them a try!

My kid loves it here since months old and even more every day in his 2s. The coaches that work with the kids are so good at their job and interactive with the kids. Parents Night Out is also a hit and a win-win for all!

My kids have been going to MyGym Waterford Lakes for over two years now and they really are amazing here. All the coaches are so great and my kids have learned so much, it’s been so helpful with their development! We just had our sons birthday party there and it was everything we expected and more. They made everything so easy for us. He and all of his friends had the best time! Even the parents left saying they had so much fun! Thank you MyGym Waterford Lakes!!

My son has been attending My Gym @Waterford Lakes for almost a year now. They have been professional and compassionate and they really care about their students. All of their coaches are so motivated and they just love working with kids. You can really tell they are great at their jobs. Best customer service I have ever received in a long time. So grateful!

This place is my daughters own personal heaven! She loves all of the fun activities, circle time, and obstacles. Every week is a new setup which keeps her busy with new experiences. The staff is so friendly and goes out of their way to ensure that everyone is having a good time. Highly recommend MyGym!

We just got home from our birthday party for our son. Everything was perfect! The coaches had everything set up before we got there and we just added our finishing touches. All of the parents and kids had a blast! Almost every parent theyre made mention of how much fun they and their child was having and thought the place was amazing. I was a little bit nervous being at its new location we had not attended a class there yet but I knew from previously attending classes with thesecoaches that it would be amazing and I was. I hope that one of my sons classmates has a party there so we can come back again. We absolutely love coach Mike and all of the coaches there at my gym I cannot give them enough praise if they had a 10 star system they would get 11 well worth the time and money

Had a wonderful time celebrating my goddaughter’s (Aria) 1st Bday. The staff was attentive and kept the children entertained the whole time we were there and that’s not easy to do. Many activities to do for all children. The best part is we were there for 2 hours with no clean up and no awkward goodbyes to guest ( if the party was at your house.) So if you are a parent who values your time and still Have a wonderful celebration for your little one... I highly recommend this place. Thanks again My Gym staff. Loved the pictures.

We love My Gym @Waterford Lakes! My Daughter Emily loves coming here every week. We started her at My Gym when she was 8 months old and she has blossomed since joining. She sees the other kids and wants to do what they do. She loves the social interaction with everyone and the staff treat you like family. The staff go above and beyond. My daughters 1st steps were at My Gym and the staff were as excited as I was. They took video and even downloaded the moment from there surveillance cameras and sent it to me. I have been so impressed with them that I decided to have my daughters first birthday here and sooooo glad I did because it was amazing. They did everything! Set up, decorations, clean up and making sure everyone had a good time! They made the party about her and even though she wont remember it, we will remember how special they made her on her big day! We are so happy we found this place! Thank you to the entire staff! We love you all

My daughter has been coming to My Gym for around 2 months and we love it! My husband and I really enjoy being able to both participate with her while she learns and explores. All of the coaches are awesome but we especially love Coach Mary Ann, Coach Mike, and Coach Bree! We will definitely be long term members!

Staff is great! We had a birthday party for my six year old daughter here and it was well worth it. The kids had a blast and the staff had well planned and executed activities for the kids, that kept them going, going, going and giggling with delight. Birthday party was Frozen themed and they had multiple activities planned that took this theme into consideration. Snowball throwing with little soft balls, snow with a bubble machine and so on. Communication was good both leading up to and during the party. Facility is clean and fantastically fun for the young kids. It was obvious the staff had good experience/training working with kids. Any time one kid started to get upset they were masters at distraction/re-direction to head off a tantrum. Would definitely recommend to others.

My girls love this place! The ninja training class is so fun! Not only did they do so much physical activity that Im sure theyll sleep well, but they also learned a lot about anatomy (quadriceps, biceps, triceps). Well be back!

Ive been taking my baby since he was 8 weeks old, now hes almost 9 months. Hes been stimulated by movement, songs, and activities, and loves it! When the Hello Song starts, he claps and bounces with excitement. The instructors are friendly and really try to get to know the children, while always keeping safety and cleanliness a priority. Its fun for me, as well, to get to know other moms and learn things we can do at home. It also gives my baby a chance to interact with others since I stay home with him. I highly recommend!

Review №26

This place is okay in the sense that the coaches are really nice. The curriculum gets a little boring if you go once a week and is literally the same if you go multiple times a week. After a while, my kid just wanted to play with the bouncy balls and well, he could do that at home.The main reason for the poor review is their cancellation policy. And I suppose if you wrap anything in the word policy what rights does the consumer have? Once a member decides to cancel, they have to pay for one more month, regardless of whether or not their situation/schedule allows them to attend those classes they pay for. And of course they use the nice tone, oh were so sorry but thats the policy, and of course we dont want you to pay for something you cant use, so heres a gift card you cant use or a punch card you cant use (because if you COULD then you wouldnt need to cancel!) They claim they told me about this when I signed up but neither my husband or I remember, so who knows? What I do know is that they have lost my son as a customer. I probably wouldve taken him back when I could because at least he got to interact with other kids once a week, and any future babies, but now I definitely wont because of their user-UN friendly policies.

If I could give it zero stars I would. Worst place Ive ever been to, will not be coming back! Some of the rudest staff members Ive ever met., I dont know which was worst the staff or the rude owner. Dont waste your time and bring your kids here this is not a happy we.

I have been a preschool teacher for more than 20 years and this is my favorite work place by far!!. The owner (Bruce) really cares about the families and the children. He invests as much as possible on supplies, gym equipment, art materials and learning toys. Im a happy My Gym teacher!! I recommend this place and the Preschool program to all the families out there.

I cannot tell you enough wonderful things about My Gym Waterford Lakes! The preschool prep teachers are beyond magnificent! Ms. Lili and Ms. Andrea were the most loving, attentive, meaniful teachers I e ever come across! (And u ran a preschool for 5 years!). They are super creative in their teachings and always has a smile on their faces. If there was a review above 5 stars, it would definitely go to them!

We have been a member at My Gym in Waterford Lakes since it opened. My son absolutely loves the classes and I love the moms that I have met in the process. It has been a wonderful experience for both of us and I would recommend My Gym to anyone who needs some activity for their children.

We love MyGym! My almost 4 yr old started doing baby classes here at 10 months old and last year he attended the preschool prep classes. Ms. Lili and Ms. Andrea are the best. They are so good with the kids and so thoughtful with the program. My son has learned so much and he also brings home the cutest crafts. We loved it so much that he will be attending next year too!!! My other son is 17 months. He loves it as well and attends classes. The facility is clean, fun and a perfect indoor activity in FL. Ive also organized play dates here and Bruce and the staff are all so easy and wonderful to work with. I could go on and on!

Beware, membership cancellation hassles!I actually didnt have any problem with the classes we were a part of at MyGym Orlando. The staff was friendly and its great for children to get that early social interaction.The cancellation policy is rather annoying (and shady?) though. We wanted to cancel our membership due to scheduling conflicts and have been told that we have to do so in person. Were really busy right now and its difficult for us to get out there, which was the reason we were canceling in the first place. I dont enjoy the added hassle so wanted to warn others of it. We probably would have gone back to mygrm once things calmed down for us, but the cancellation policies are certainly a turn off.
