   My son loves this summer camp. He was actually excited to go every day. Weekly field trips and consistent days at the park, you really can’t beat this camp. All the employees are very kind, and very patient. Overall best summer camp in my opinion.

   It all started with Elevate being the most accommodating with 2 kids of different ages (5 and 8) while looking for an after school/after work activity to keep them motivated. Elevate has flexible schedules for both ages and we were so surprised with how much the kids not only loved and asked to go (daily) but how structured, challenging and rewarding it would be for them. Confidence builder for sure! Amazing program and Amazing Coaches! It is now part of our weekly routine!

   We looked around for a taekwondo gym for our kids. We looked for about 1 week. We decided to go with Elevate. This was honestly the best decision. The coaches are great, they instill discipline and make sure that if any students are struggling they help them. They are very knowledgeable. Not only do they have taekwondo there will be nights where you get a parents night out 3 hours. This is a nice perk. I would say the pricing is fair and isn't over priced. We have got to go to tournaments and watch our kids test for the next level belt. Overall I would highly recommend this gym for the kids.

   Since joining Elevate's after-school program, our daughter has grown in physical strength, focus, and self-confidence. Coach Adam genuinely cares about the well-being of every child and goes the extra mile to encourage them through challenges. He never gives up on them and won't let them give up on themselves. This is hands-down the best program we've experienced in the Tampa Bay area!
