Thunder Elite All-Star Cheerleading Inc.

Where to start. David, is the owner and very cruel if you ask me. But that’s not the worst part, tara is the most terrible person alive. She will kick any girl off a team just for standing up for themselves. Or if another girl on the teams feels a certain way and they go to Tara first then that poor girl is out of luck and kicked off. She shares information with the team about the girls getting kicked off and tells the team why and what happened. Which is not okay. OCHS made a terrible choice by having this company be incharge of the cheer team. The school had to get rid of them because of the here say scandals of Tara selling the girls sex toys. And her kicking girls off of the teams for no reason, and taking their money with no refund. Might be an ok place if ur just going for some classes but not for anything but else. Way to much drama to deal with just for cheerleading. There are wonderful coaches out there, not here. Unless you want to get involved with their drama. Be prepared to spend a fortune for nothing. Things might start out nice, the second you have a problem is when you loose All respect for them. And it would be wise for the owners to try and fix the problems them commenting back saying negative things to the people who had a bad experience. Do you u want to go to a place that treats people with a bad experience like this? Go look at the other comments and the return comments they leave. Very unprofessional. Negative comments are meant for to improve customer service. And the professional response would be «how can I fix that, and make your experience better» take notes.

I find it rather curious that the only reviews on this site are old and awful. All 3 of my children attended Thunder and my children had good days and some difficult days over the course of 4 years. Candy Skaw loves everybody’s children. Some may confuse rudeness with professionalism. As a long time parent of gymnastics team then all star cheer it is so difficult to keep all parents happy. I have found particularly in cheer that it’s not the children that are jelious and petty but the parents. In my very lengthy experience I feel the staff and owners of Thunder Elite are committed, encouraging and support their kids to strive and thrive. As for Unilocal,I feel there is something very fishy about the way reviews are posted. Not just for this business, but for any business that has lots of check in’s and reviews.

My daughter has been here for over a year. We had one bad experience — but I spoke with David and he was great. Took care of the issue and we haven’t had any troubles since. We never really had any «issues» — just another coach that didn’t understand the emotions of a 6 year old drama queen.
My only concern is that we have been here for a year and my daughter doesn’t seem to be progressing. Not really a problem — just wish she was able to do more. I am happy with the speed and steps they take to teach our children.
I have more of an issue with the caddy mom’s who can be heard throughout the lobby/​seating area. But that isn’t the gyms fault!!!

Unprofessional owners and president!
Leaves kids out. Rude, liars, and a waste of parents time and money. Don’t join your kids here don’t waste your money. Bad experience for my 6 year old.

The only positive thing I can say about this gym is that Tara and her coaches are wonderful. With that said there is also another owner and his wife that made our experience just horrible! They are rude to children and parents. If your child isn’t one that is their favorite best believe your child will get moved to place a child they like there. They don’t deal with discipline problems. I know they win but if I were you I won’t take my child here unless it was just Tara running it!
