Booked my 7 year old sons birthday party at The Champion Gym and it was beyond amazing. The girls were so good with the kids - they were kind, fun and made sure the party went on without a hitch. They checked in multiple times to see if there was anything they could do. It was so nice having their support in making the day run smoothly for all the kids and for us! The space is amazing - the kids played the entire time. They had blow ups for the obstacle course, go-karts, Lazer guns, a parkour area and a boxing area that was supervised so the kids had guidance and no one got hurt. 10/10 would recommend. Will 100% book our parties in the future there again. Corinne Lindgren2025-04-23Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Love this place!
