​Our daughter Isabelle has been at student at GMA for 5 years now. Enrolling her at this school has been hands down the best thing we as parents have done for our daughter.

​GMA is a positive environment for young people delivering a consistent and overwhelming positive message in a sometimes negative world.

It is our sincere hope and intention to keep our daughter at GMA for the long haul.

​My son struggles to stay focused then gets upset that he is not doing the moves 'correctly'. The instructors are always patient and kind, encouraging him to keep going, having fun. 

It's a joy to watch the playful but assertive approach of all the instructors.

​We couldn’t be happier with the care and patience that all of the teachers have with our son. Since we started, we have seen a massive improvement in his motor strength, coordination, and perseverance. He is also more confident in trying new physical activities. Thanks to all of the staff, we greatly appreciate it.
