Gymtowne Gymnastics SSF — Attraction in South San Francisco

Big location with lots of equipment that is clean and in good condition. Different areas are set up to accommodate different class levels and timings. The only reason for a 4 rating, instead of a 5, is lack of options for boys level 1 classes; there is only one class and one time all week (Wednesday evening), which provides little opportunity to attend. However, girls and toddler classes have many day and time options.

My 19 month old son attended rug bugs class and had an absolute blast. There were lots of things that he could play on and he loved to explore his options. The class only had a few minutes of actual structure, which is understandable for his age, and was more free play time. Definitely recommend rug bugs.

My 8 year old son attended boys level 1 and while this was not the right activity for him, it is his preference and not a reflection of the gym or its staff. The staff/ teachers were friendly and accommodating. Special shout out to Elania (name spelling?), who went out of her way to make sure that my son had a nice experience; it is people like her that take this initiative in which people have good experiences and walk away with a happy feeling of the company or service. Thank you, Elania!

Both my kids have been coming here for a few months now and they absolutely love it. They do learn plenty about their core strength, balancing, technique, and many other things. My eldest daughter always comes out sweating and is always so proud to show me new moves she has learned or difficult techniques that she accomplishes. I have to give a shout-out to JUSTIN who teaches level - 1. Thank you very much for being such an encouraging instructor. You are awesome!!!

Just a heads up to new parents, the gym stinks lol! There is really no other way to put it. But what more could you expect from a gym full of barefoot kids. I think I have now gotten use to the smell. It took me a few weeks to adjust. Once you have been there often enough, you get use to it.

Otherwise we...

⭐☆☆☆☆ Disappointing Experience – Would Not Recommend

Gymtowne SF looks promising from the outside—big space, nice equipment—but it’s honestly a waste. The classes are incredibly short for how expensive they are, and the entire experience feels rushed and poorly managed. When I offered some feedback about my concerns, I was completely dismissed by the owner, who came off as defensive and frankly, not friendly at all.

For the amount of time, effort, and money it takes just to get there, it’s simply not worth it. The space could be great, but it’s being wasted on a program that doesn’t seem interested in improving. Would...
