Dynamite Gymnastics specializes in finding the perfect class for every student of any skill level and age (from 6 months old through adults). We break classes out by age because we understand the importance of socialization. Once students achieve basic skills, they can request an assessment to move to advanced classes or team track.
Looking for something super fun for your kids to do during days off from school? Bring them to camp at Dynamite for a day of flips, friends and fun. Don't see a school's out date on our calendar? Give us a call and we will see if we can swing it! If the gym is available, we would rather have your kids jumping and playing than sitting at home.

At Dynamite, we understand that life happens. For this reason, we allow students to make up missed classes. To create more spaces and maximize makeup options for everyone, we ask that you report when your student will be absent. We ask that families report absences at least 48 hours in advance to provide other families with the opportunity to plan makeups.
Not quite sure how to navigate the Parent Portal? Need help registering for classes, camp or events, scheduling makeups and trials, updating your payment information, or setting class drop dates? We are here to help you. Report class and make-up cancellations at least 48 hours prior to the class, camp day, or event.

This was the best gymnastics I have been to. They have 7 beams, a lot of bars, trampolines, and a little section that you can send younger kids the age of 4 -7 to too. This is a really nice place, the teachers are really nice. For more advanced gymnasts, there is a team and a junior team. The junior team travels to places in Maryland, while the regular team goes to Vegas, California, and more! They have gymnastics tryouts if you just want to see if your kid is interested or not. I think that this is a really good place for gymnastics.

Dynamite is incredible! It has given my 4 year daughter so much confidence. She can now jump on the trampoline, do a somersault, a balance beam and more. Because of this, she is using the swings by herself and riding a tricycle. She is obsessed with gymnastics! Parents can't go inside yet but there is WiFi and a camera you can watch. We love Dynamite and Lydia!

Loved this place when it was in person. The virtual classes have been a constant struggle since they started. They work one week and not the next. The folks at the front desk have been great but the situation never gets resolved. When we ask the administrators we get sent the same link over and over again but no apologies for missed classes or refunds. My suggestion is if you feel comfortable sending your kids in person you are fine. If you want to do a virtual class find another group that might be more interested in doing a virtual program. These guys are clearly not interested.

Our kids have been going to Dynamite for a couple of years now, both for gymnastics and for Birthday parties.
The experience had been generally good for us. The staff has been helpful. Signing up the kids for classes has been easy. They do have many classes available for all groups.
The instructors are good here. They do have many instructors available for the classes and private events.
The place is good to - lots of different things to do for kids.
The waiting area is a bit cozy tho and the restrooms could do with some TLC.
Bottom line, a good place for gymnastics!

We have been bringing our almost 3 year old daughter to Dynamite for a month and have been thrilled. We needed some place for my daughter to get energy out after school and there are very limited places for this during the week. Given she's three her attention span is limited and she doesn't understand why she can't do everything all the time, but that's why the instructors let me come inside with her when she's have a difficult day. We spend 45 minutes trying multiple activities and my daughter is learning safe tumbling, agility, listening skills, and how to participate

The coach Lilly skipped my son on an activity for three out of four weeks on Saturday morning. Got to keep an eye on the coach to make sure your kid gets what’s planned. Front desk service was excellent though. Joe was an awesome coach when filling in. He made sure my son got a chance to do everything.

My daughter has been a part of the dynamite family for over 5 years. She is now on USGA team level 4. What i love about the attitude at dynamite is tha that it is about the whole child and strengthening them both mentally and physically to be thier best. It is not about winning and pushing kids to do more than is physically safe... as i have seen other gyms. I highly recommend the gym for competitive gymnastics but also classes and fun! thier staff is so centered on caring about kids.

I have been impressed with the coaches at Dynamite. My daughter "S" has been there for years and she's so happy. She enjoys the team building that they do without the pressure. Although she's on USAG team, she cares just as much about her team mate's success as her own. The gym is always clean and it's great they need to remove their shoes and wipe down before going into the gym.

I came this location referred by my sister assuming it will be a good fit for my daughter with special needs. Our first day, My wife and myself made appointment and visited this location. The instructor took my daughter to the open gym and tested her motor skill. We as a parent were excited to see our daughter running around all over the gym and looking her excitement on her face. In the end, the instructor told us she will inform us the next step. We waited couple days and called back and she was off. Left a call back message.....No response. We made several attempts to reach her....... no response

My 12 year old son really wanted to learn basic gymnastics (especially how to do a cartwheel) so we signed him up for a week of Dynamite gym Summer camp (half day at nearby Parkour center that partners with Dynamite gym) as it's near my work. When signing up I asked if my son's lack of gym experience would be a problem and were reassured that the instructors could accommodate all skill levels. On day one we realized there were problems- my son was the only beginning gym student in his group and was already self conscious so he felt miserable. He also preferred the gym environment to Parkour

We have a very nice instructor and she's very patient with our son. He's very much a boy and runs around constantly. However, one instructor (Jackie) is totally rude and does not know how to talk to people. She should be ashamed of herself. She said, "Your class is over and you need to leave!" I was so dumbfounded at how rude she was that I was speechless. The fact that this woman works with children scares me. It really ruined an otherwise decent experience.

My experience with this facility was absolutely dreadful. First off the actual facility is in a pretty run down manufacturing area. But i will say once you get inside its very tidy. Now the worst part is the management i brought my daughter who was signed up for the three year olds and she was put into a mixture of three year olds and twos. They said they were short and couldn't do anything about it. My problem is they should at least have given a heads up that they were short. This place is not cheap and I don't like the way they handled it. It seems like nobody knows what to do so I

Horrible experience. Daughter who's been taking gymnastics for years went to try out a class. Coach was a male which she was slightly apprehensive about. I sat there and watched him make fun of her for not bringing socks to class (no one told us she needed socks-it was her first day of a trial class) saying rudely "YOU DIDNT WEAR SOCKS WITH YOUR SHOES TODAY? It's 30 degrees and you didn't wear socks today????" and then proceeded to tell her to "BORROW THEM" twice raising his voice each time while motioning to the socks. Then while she started looking at socks

My only experience here has been Open Gym. I took my then toddler several times, but I just hated it so much we stopped going. Way too much yelling (not nicely) at the kids about literally everything for the entire hour...
Don't run around the gym! You can only run on that one red mat! (Seriously?) Don't bounce on that trampoline! (Seriously?) No drinks allowed in the gym! (Seriously? I get that you don't want a bunch of 7 year olds spilling gatorade on your mats, but I'm giving a bottle to my 2 month old while keeping an eye on my 3 year old to make sure he doesn't have

I have three boys, one of which loves gymnastics (who religiously goes to Dynamite Gymnastics), a second likes it rough & tumble and loves attending Bolt Parkour (which is a nearby affiliate of Dynamite) and a third is trying to get comfortable with his quickly growing body (he is progressing by leaps and bounds attending the nearby affiliated Agility Center).
I love that instructors are actively engaged with the students vs. other gyms where there is minimal instruction.
Another plus is the makeup policy. If my sons feels like spending time at any of the other gyms....no problem. He can apply

This facility is amazing! State of the art equipment it's a former gymnast's dream come true! Friendly and experienced staff. Everything you would want from a gym and more. I love that they offer such a variety of classes from gymnastics, tumbling, adult classes and then the agility which is perfect for your next obstacle course race! They offer different times for every schedule. Come check them out today!

Dynamite has the newest facilities in the area and do some incredible work with special needs kids using motion therapy - if i was rating on that they'd get 5 stars.
Unfortunately, the owners seem to have become obsessed with expansion and revenue maximization to the detriment of the rest of their students and the team. Overly subscribed classes, especially on Saturday mornings and a lack of professionalism among the Jr. Coaches has come close to ruining our children's enthusiasm for the sport.
