Forest Hills Rhythmic Gymnastics

«Are you looking for a place where your kids sit in a circle for 30 min while listening to yet another version of „Twinkle, Twinkle little star“ and pretend to be a gymnast so you can send a picture to your grandma in a pretty gymnast uniform? Then… you are at a wrong place. This center is not „pretend“ gymnastics. Little girls here work hard under close masterful supervision. Coaches (Alex and Mila) take pride in what they do and Mila oozes creativity in the routines that she selflessly puts together. Its a perfect combination of getting results (believe me, you will SEE the results) and kindness and care that keeps girls coming back. Its a family. Family that works and creates together and raises little girls on discipline, encouragement and work ethic that they will take with them in the future… as gymnasts or not.:) »

where a young girl is molded in to a young lady.
My daughter has been attending the class here for quite sometime now and loves every bit of it. The instructors at rhythmic gymnastics are one of a kind. The order and discipline is amazing. The classes are of pretty big size but still they manège to have time to for a little one on one with with the students to help them perfect there stretches and posture.
At the moment we live all the way in bayside. After endless searches for a closer class we realized that we weren’t going to find anything that could even come close in comparison.
While reading the reviews about this school their was one that really bothered me. A lady started that the 14 year old teach the children and not really the teachers. This from my experience is totally false. If there is a 14 year old teaching your daughter it is only because some students will take the time and assist a younger student. It is not that the instructors will ever abandon the child its that an experienced student was just closer to the child while she was messing up. All though this school is amazing it is always the parents job to ma! e sure that the child is exercising and practicing at home. If you daughter for some reason is not improving then it your self to blame.
Since attending for a while I’ve gotten a chance to speak with a few parents f some of the girls. During my talks I have discovered that many mothers have once attended the class themselves and later became a doctor or other respectable profession and then sent their daughters to study with Mila.
To sum it all up this school is what your daughter needs in her life and Mila is the teacher \ mentor and role model every young lady can look up to. Her teaching style is untouched.

With what I have experienced the school is about discipline and results in a short period of time.
Staff is very sharp and attentive to their students.

Amazing center if you want your girl to truly have skill, poise, rhythm and structure. The effort Mila and the young ladies put into training these girls are reflective of the results. There’s no slacking, conversing or going off target-​work is work and they stick to their routine. I highly recommend this school of gymnastics to anyone.

So i have decided to put bit of update to Rhythmic Gymnastics.
We have been with them for 4 years now and over the time they became more like family rather then just an activity that my daughter attends.
In 4 years they gave my daughter confidence to show off her skills and ability to stand in front row in any other activity or school performance. Its very tough to teach confidence but Mila and Alex and their tireless assistants able to deliver.

A great school for young girls who want to learn posture, poise, how to dance, improve flexibility and rhythm. The coaches are internationally trained and exceptional. I attended for many years and was always happy and developed a great passion for dance thanks to Mila. I am always happy to go back and visit and hope my daughter can one day attend her school.

They are highly disorganized and the owners son who runs the school is extremely rude and unprofessional. The teachers are not professional at all as well. They are very sweet but cannot handle those kids. They perform unsafe techniques with the kids who are not propperly supervised. The classes are extremely overcrowded I would not recommend it.

My daughter went for about 3 – 4 years. There are at least 50 students in each class. 14 year old students are teaching the rest. The real teacher only concentrates on a hand full of kids that she picks to go to Madison Sq. Garden. These kids, however, pay the same tuition as everyone else, and there isn’t a fair selection process, such as an audition. If you want your daughter to be selected, kiss a** and pay the full year in advance, no other skills required.
I’ll give three stars for the first several years that were good when Mila taught, rather than other students.
