testimonials

Tapio has been very special to my family over the years and continues to be special. As a single parent of two girls, having great role models was one my main goals for raising them. At Tapio, that goal has been accomplished. Not only the coaches and staff truly have my daughters best interest at heart, but for my gymnast daughter, her fellow gym team members have been great role models to be around. I have no worries that she hangs out with older girls who all seem to be tops in their classes, work hard in practice, and generally very well rounded girls. I truly feel the coaches and staff are an extension of my family, and I’m proud to say that my daughter represents them well also.
