Eagles Wings Athletics - Prosper, Texas

My daughters have been going to Eagle’s Wings Athletics for almost 4 years starting at ages 5 and 3. My oldest is now training for her 4th competitive year and my youngest will soon start competing level 1. We absolutely love it here and remain here for the coaching specifically. Coach Jhoannys and Coach Oswaldo are absolutely phenomenal at what they do. They truly care about the entire being of your child from the athletes they are training, to helping create great little humans on the inside as well. They have such passion in creating great gymnasts as well as great people, being that they are amazing humans themselves! My daughters feel truly loved, safe, and supported under their care. I could not ask for better coaches. Coach Jhoannys has a younger sister, Coach Yennys who is just as amazing who my girls train under as well. Thank you EWA and Coaches Jhoannys, Oswaldo, and Yennys for providing my wife, girls, and I with a fun, safe, and thriving team environment for our girls. It’s so important and why we stay with this gym.

It is really fun and I know a lot of nice people there. All of the coaches are really nice and love to help us get better. Whenever we mess up the coaches help us fix the mistakes. Your daughter is looking for a long term sport then come here there is a girls gymnastics team along with a trampoline and tumbling team (TNT for short) it works their flexibility and strength. They can also make a lot of friends. One of the tnt coaches is coach Brittany who is nice and when spotting gymnasts (helping them not die if the mess up) she had never let one get severely injured so you can trust her. Also you can put your son in tnt if you want. There is also a men’s team we’re there are a lot of us, 21 to be exact. It is more focused on strength rather than flexibility, but it still helps her flexibility. There is one thing you gotta know, though it’s that kids above the age of 10 are normally behind when it comes to being a gymnast just because of the how long and hard you have to train if you start at that age. During school, there’s a thing called after school, which is like they pick them up the kids up after school and then they bring them to the gym and they can play there until you’re ready to pick them up and they have stuff like games they go to trampolines they eat snacks it’s just really fun. It’s kind like that in summer, but you have to drop them off.

I was on a competitive team just a few years ago here, and have seen doing gymnastics at this gym since 2018. I had to quit for a year or so in the middle due to personal issues, but the first time I was there was very well and my coach and I had a very good relationship. However, when I came back from my break, very quickly did it change. I got back on the team with the same coach as before (Coach Virginia) but a few months in, a new coach was hired. They went through a few, but eventually stuck to a man named Coach oswaldo (that isn't the best spelling of it, but I'm assuming it's a Mexican name).

Immediately, my original coach allowed the new one to make all the decisions, which wasn't an issue, just sorta annoying because of how different I was used to things running. The new coach was for vault and bars, and would commonly spot us on both events. If you're even slightly familiar with gymnastics leos are, you'd know that they are basically one piece swimsuits, sometimes paired with shorts. This seemingly 50 year old man was spotting 10-13 year old girls, touching their legs, which personally made me very uncomfortable. (Maybe that was just a personal opinion and comfortablity, but just let that be known if your young child wants to join a team.)

On vault, we were all doing flatbacks onto a mat, and to get there, we were supposed to rebound over a panel mat, then jump onto the springy part of the spring board. I was maybe 4'6 then, and had short legs, I don't know if that's important but height usually is in sports. Personally I wasn't able to rebound over the panel mat because I wasn't tall enough, and that upset the coach. What he did in return was move the spring board away from the mat to vault on. When it was my turn to vault, I wasn't able to make it from the springboard to the mat because it was too far apart, resulting in me falling and getting a scratch from a few inches under my knee to a few inches above my foot. All the coaches did was tell me to sit out and out ice on it. I was bleeding and couldn't walk. Not once did they call my parents about my injury, even though I had to sit out and could barely walk by the time my dad was there to pick me up after practice.

I think that is a massive safety concern, and even my dad was upset that they didn't call him after that incident. Any parent deserves to know if their child is injured during practice, and the fact that he was only notified almost an hour after I got hurt because he picked me up was borderline insane.

I made a review similar to this under a different name without name dropping anyone, but now I feel less bad about name dropping the people directly involved. This was just to warn people about joining teams and my personal experience. This did not happen to everyone on the team, but the fact that it even happened to me is something I find horrible. Gymnastics is an amazing girl sport and I loved doing it, but parents, please be careful in knowing who will be coaching your children, especially young girls

My stepdaughters have attended classes here for a few years now and typically enjoy themselves. However, when one of my stepdaughters decided to have her birthday party here, the stress in trying to reach the facility alone was miserable. When we booked the party, I was told to let them know which colors my stepdaughter wanted for the balloons and tablecloths, that they provide, a week out from the party. I called numerous times in that week, only to have them call my husband back instead of me. I left several voicemails asking that they specifically contact me as my husband was busy working, and they’d call him back within minutes of my voicemails. I finally went to the facility to confirm the colors and other details, two days before the party, but was told that Courtney was not there. Instead she waited until the night before the party to call me back (with a horrible attitude, I’ll add).

More recently, I called several times this week, and left voicemails, to inquire about their holiday programs and- you guessed it- no returned calls. But Courtney did answer my husband’s call on the first ring, less than 30 minutes after I’d left a voicemail.

Eagles Wings is hands-down one of the best places that you can take your child to develop great coordination and core strength that will stick with them the rest of their life and do it in an environment that is positive encouraging and safe. I could not recommend them more!

We've been coming to this gym for a few months for my youngest kid. His coaches always greet him with a smile. He’s in a tumbling class and a boys class. he participated in the winter mini meet and it was a positive first experience for him. I like that the gym and the classes are not overcrowded. We love the kids night out Saturday events they have (about once a month I think). My six-year-old and my 12-year-old have gone to two of them and they both have a blast. Peice very reasonable which is so appreciated.

We absolutely LOVE it here. My kids have attended classes for multiple years and have had nothing but FUN!! The coaches and staff are very knowledgeable and are just the best humans to my children! My kids have also attended multiple birthday parties both their own and their friends and always leave wanting to go back! I highly recommend!!
