Bait and switch, rip off, simple as that. To be fair this is not to speak of their quality as a dance school or their facility. I've never been there so I can't speak to that.This is to speak of their bad business. we bought a 6 pass to their open gym. Little did we know that we wouldn't be able to use it on the weekends (when we're actually home to take the kids, like most families who work Monday-Friday). So this is definitely our fault for not realizing this before we bought it although when my wife bought it I doubt they advertised when you can or cant go. However, my wife was home a couple of Fridays so they were able to go then. I was left with 2 passes and thought it would be great to take them on President's Day, as their day care was closed and I stayed home with them. I was pleased to see on their schedule "Open Gym - Unplugged". I called to confirm this is happening, only for the girl to inform me that this is not the usual open gym, but this one is WAY cooler with a live musician. Excellent, I thought. But then she continued to inform me that this is not the regular $15, since they have a musician this is $20. So since I had the pass with $20 credit on it (for open gyms) I said that I'd be happy to pay the difference. Unfortunately, she said, I won't be able to apply the credit from the regular open gym to this special one. WHY?????? Isn't $20 for this the same $20 for that??? I wasn't about to pay $40 (2 kids) to a place I have $20 credit to! If I was flush with money maybe I would, but unfortunately, we're not. I'm all for capitalism, but this is simply bad business on the part of the ownership. Such a rip off!

Concerning ethical standards outlined by requiring children >10 mos to be vaccinated, thus excluding children from activities because parents exercise their right to free choice over health care decisions.

Signed up my toddler for intro classes at 18 months. Found the teachers of class to be rude and not very helpful. I have an active child and at each class, the teacher did not try to engage toddler into any activity participation. I witnessed her actively walk away/ignore child when he was ready to participate multiple times. Facility is fun and clean but overall very disappointed

Cool gym. However, Schedules are random and constantly changing... makes planning very difficult. They’re also often not open on weekends... when most working parents find time to take their kids and do stuff like this. Management couldn’t care less after you purchase passes. So It’s like a real gym: they want you to buy the membership and never go haha. But in this case, it’s not because of our laziness... their doors are simply closed.

We love taking our little guy to open play! You can see how much everyone loves working there. It’s a great place to let the little ones burn off some steam.

This establishment believes they have the power to tell your children (anyone over the age of 5) that they must be vaccinated. In no world should a kid's gym location think they have the power to tell your kid(s) they should get vaccinated. Not to mention, they refused to give us our money back from when pre-paid back in November. So essentially, they made up rules as they went just so they could steal money. We filed a complaint with the BBB and contacted the PA Attorney General for these practices. I would suggest you never take your child(ren) to any of the Inmovements as they believe they can tell your children what vaccination(s) they need. To the owners of InMovement, get off your high horse; you are a kid's gym, not a doctor.

This place just want your money and doesn’t care about anything else. Agree with the other reviews that the teachers are completely disengaging. We only went to one class and never authorized a subscription. They stole our card information and charged us for a “subscription” 8 months later.

Came here for the first time for an Adult Aerial class in the past month. I didn't know what to expect since every description and listing for this gym is so kid-oriented, but let's get into it. The first floor seems to be dedicated to youth classes, while the upper floor is for the adult classes. When I first came in 5 mins before my class, the foyer area was bombarded with parents waiting for their children, then children running back and forth between the foyer and gym area, as well as many food smells from people eating. This in your initial view and first impression of the place and it came off as very disorganized and scattered. I would definitely consider a policy that organizes this all more, as well as a no eating policy in that area. My experience got way better after this, but this was a very poor first impression. Now for the Adult Aerial Class itself. The class starts with a LOT of warm-up, way more than I was expecting. We jogged around the room for about 5 minutes, then did some yoga stretches for maybe 15-20 minutes, then a period of light acro-yoga (probably another 15-20 minutes), then finally got to aerial stuff, before stretching for the last 10 minutes of the class. The instructor was so friendly, warm, and welcoming, as someone who has 0 experience with aerial I never once felt judged for not knowing what I was doing. The other floaters with a lot of experience (not sure if instructors) were also incredibly encouraging in everything that we did. When we split off into partnered groups for acro yoga and then mini groups for aerial, they were constantly moving around, helping us to get successfully into many of the positions and movements. The group that goes to this class also needs a shoutout. I was really worried about how this was going to with trying a new place for the first time, having no experience, being shy, but every one of these washed away thanks to the awesome people there. One thing that was super common was that despite being in different groups doing different things, when a group succeeds in their efforts everyone notices and is so overjoyed for their achievement. Literally everyone was encouraging of everyone else and that made this experience so special. Despite the overall welcoming and encouraging atmosphere, I have one criticism of the class and that is how it is structured. I get that the long warm-up time is meant to prepare you for the demanding movements of aerial, but I'm don't think it was 100% conducive to this goal. There were many beginners in the class as well intermediates who were still learning, and it seemed like the answer to this was always repetition. I watched many people being told to just try something again and again which, while encouraging, glosses over why they can't just jump into a certain position. I found this would have been the same regardless of warm-up time. What this class is missing is conditioning exercises that will help both beginners and intermediates. I would suggest shortening the warm-up to make time for everyone to take turns (the adult gym has 2 hoops, 1 hammock, and 2 silk sets that everyone takes turns on) practicing conditioning exercises, then move into practicing the full aerial positions. When I got back from the class, I looked on YouTube for aerial conditioning exercises and found them in a second. There's just no excuse for why these are not part of the class, and this is the main reason why I only had a 4 star experience. Regardless of this fact, my experience was so great that I will be going back for another class and to see how that goes. I think any person interested in the adult class will have a fabulous experience. I def think though the gym should work on restructuring the adult class more, and to better advertise their adult classes. I'm sure the youth classes are the money maker, but I think more attention to highlighting the adult classes will garner interest and boost revenue.

I signed up for a month of classes in October (end sept-end Oct) and attended two classes since my baby has been sick. $150 for 4 classes. I see they charge me for the next month, and ask them to remove the charge since I have no plans to attend and you CANT REMOVE YOUR CREDIT CARD from your website account! Scary. I was denied removal of the charge… still fighting that. The last thing moms of young kids need is to be tricked out of $100 for two mediocre classes, only ONE of which had proper instruction that day. Don’t be fooled.

Both my kids have been taking classes at I movement for over a year. They are so happy and love their classes. My son takes the ninja class and my daughter is in their gymnastics classes for little kids. The instructors are great and all the employees are so helpful and nice. The location is so convenient for us as well.

This gym is great with lots of new equipment. The staff is courteous knowledgeable and very professional. I highly recommend this gym! Definitely one of the better, cleaner gyms I've been to.

In Movement has been a true inspiration in helping our son discover a love of gymnastics. Despite his behavioral challenges, the amazing staff and owner worked with us as a partner hand in hand to help our son deal with his limitations, and exceed ALL of our expectations. Both our kids attend classes year round on weekends and after school, and we couldn't be happier with the program. Only negative, they are a victim of their own success, and the lobby is very tight for waiting parents. Hope they'll take the plunge and move into a bigger space, as they sure look like they could use it! :)

My children have been to maybe four sessions (seasons) here and they LOVE it!!!! The staff is excellent with the children and very pleasant with parents. My also children learned so much!

My daughter loves this and her teacher so excited ❤️😍

My 21 month old son loves to play and explore different ways to move and play in the lil tumblers class! The teachers are amazing, able to manage a room of toddlers with just enough structure but not too much. As a parent I love that missed classes can be made up in open play! Love the flexibility.

My son absolutely LOVES his class! Coach Sara is fun, laid back and very loving. She sends great pictures and videos of all he's trying and learning. We take off a day of school just so we can make gymnastics class work!

Can’t say enough good things about InMovement. The staff is amazing, caring, and kind. Most importantly, my son always has a great time. He has been attending the ninja class for a few years now and it’s perfect for him, whether he’s feeling super energetic and needing to burn some energy or just in need of routine it’s always a great time. We miss the bella vista location but the location is in a convenient spot. Thankful for a fun and affordable city activity!

Excellent place to have a birthday party!!! This was the first time I'd had a kid's party not in my home and what a great experience! The staff really impressed with the seamless way they set up, supported the parents, led the kids, and left us all with smiles, especially the birthday boy! Thanks for amazing time!

My daughter attended the Intro to Gymnastic class and she loved it. It's a fun way for your child to be active. I also feel like her confidence has been boosted with all the new things she able to do. flips and using the bars and balance beam. I just love it!

InMovement is one of the best things about having children in Philly. The space is welcoming, inviting, and super fun and engaging, always the best instructors, and I admire the way they have navigated the pandemic and continued to serve our children. Also a great place for birthday parties! They have it down to a science!

My daughter started gymnastics with Philly InMovement this fall after her old gym closed down due to structural issues in early 2022. I am beyond pleased that I chose to enroll her here. She is learning at a much faster rate than before and she really enjoys the activities they plan for her group during each session. I appreciate that the class sizes aren't too big because it allows her to get an adequate amount of turns to practice new techniques before the end of class. Small class sizes and multiple instructors also help to keep her focus since she's no longer waiting for a large group of students to go ahead of her each time as she did at her old gym. I definitely made the right choice by enrolling her here. I highly recommend this gym to anyone interested in signing their child up.

My son LOVES Philly in Movement! He has been taking classes for 2+ years, and he especially loves the warm, caring staff. I'm happy with the gender diversity, friendliness, and organized manner of the classes. They are very disciplined in a super-positive and supportive way. Thanks for a great experience! They have even been extra helpful when my son experienced some anxiety.

My son started taking the Trick Jam class at InMovement around 2.5 years old. He's almost 4 and is so excited to go each week. The instructors have all been so kind, and fun. We also held his 3rd birthday there, and all the kids had a blast. I highly recommend!

This is a great place for learning and enjoying movement. My daughter and I both have taken aerials classes here - the teaching is warm, engaging and encouraging, not to mention fun! Appropriate for those who are serious about developing their skills as well as those looking for an enjoyable pastime. Would recommend!

In Movement is great! The Trick Jam class is perfect for my 21 month old son. While it is structured for the older kids, he is still able to run around and burn off energy in the way he desires. As he gets older, I'm sure he will start participating with the rest of the class. This place is a must must must for parents who need an alternative to the park every so often!
