Twelve years, one floor at a time
Painitenyce EDU started in 2014 with eleven students and a single studio. We are now eighty athletes across two rooms — and we still write every term report by hand.
Read our policiesWhy we track everything
The first thing we noticed as coaches was how often a parent genuinely did not know whether their child was progressing. The child felt busy. The coach saw improvement. Nobody had written it down.
So we built a ten-step skill progression for every level and apparatus, scored it after each assessment, and put the result where the family could see it. When a student plateaus, we can tell you which step is blocking them and what we are doing about it. When they jump a level, you can see that too.
That system is why our retention rate is what it is. Families stay because the progress is visible.

Our facilities
Sprung gym floor with full apparatus — uneven bars, balance beams at three heights, parallel bars and a vault table with a tumbling track and pit.
Two additional studios for conditioning, choreography and tumbling, plus Marley Hall — a full sprung dance floor with mirrors and a portable sound system.
A dedicated parents' lounge overlooking the training floor, so you can watch a class without standing in the doorway.

Filmed during the spring term. We film training sessions with consent only, and never during a competition warm-up.
In their words
“The term reports are what sold me. I could read exactly where my daughter was on the progression and what her coach was working on. No other studio we tried did that.”
“We joined for the recitals and stayed for the coaching. Two years on, neither child has ever told us they wanted to stop going.”
“What I appreciate is that they will tell you when a child is not ready for something. That honesty is rarer than it should be.”
