★ 5★ 4★ 3★ 2★ 1My daughter loves Ohio Sports Academy!! She’s currently loving her Birds Gymnastics class with Coach Ash. I love that she can use her makeups for Lil Ninja, so she can enjoy another area of the gym. She’s had a blast at Summer Camps & Kids Night In! Whenever we come in for class, Dee, at the front desk is always welcoming & friendly. Great environment at OSA!
July 08 · Hannah DanielsWe love this gym! My toddler loves coach Andrea and all the fun activities she gets to try. They have a great balance of directing toddlers to follow instructions but also allowing them to be curious, stubborn toddlers. Very affordable and lots of great experience for kids. We plan to continue coming here for years!
July 08 · Paige MitchellOur daughter has been at Ohio Sports Academy since she was 17 months old. She just turned 3 and we are still loving it! Her weekly classes have helped develop her strength, coordination, and balance along with preschool social skills like listening, following directions, and taking turns. We especially appreciate how Coach Nelly always encourages the kids and makes class fun for them!
July 09 · Emily LewisMy daughter has been going her for over a year in Ninja and Gymnastics. She absolutely loves it! Coach Jacob and Coach Ash are amazing instructors during her ninja class and Coach Nelly and Coach Amanda are so caring during her Gymnastics class! She is challenged during each of her classes and always ends her classes with a smile! We attend some of the Summer Camp days too. The Summer Camp weeks are always her favorite. She is engaged all day and loves telling me all the things that they do. I always recommend OSA to anyone looking for kids extracurricular activities or a Summer Camp option.
July 08 · Dana BallouI cannot say enough great things about the ninja classes my children are enrolled in! We’ve had the most interaction with coach Jacob. It’s refreshing to see someone who loves what they do. He makes a point to give high fives, words of encouragement and gets on the level of the kiddos to help them with techniques. He’s incredibly kind, and he’s made an our switch from martial arts to ninja classes absolutely a breeze.It’s a great atmosphere, and you can see how it’s all about the kids and their growth! We are incredibly pleased!
