Guidelines of our Recreational Program
Free Trial Class
Anyone not currently enrolled at The Pride of Texas may participate in a free trial class. There is no obligation with a free trial and it will give you and your athlete a chance to see our facility, meet our instructors, and how a class operates. By taking a free trial class, your athlete’s spot in that class is reserved, so we recommend that you choose a class with days and times that are convenient for your schedule, should you decide for your athlete to continue with the class. Please contact the front desk to schedule a free trial class.
No Long Term Obligation
Our class program runs on a month-to-month basis. A 30 (thirty) day cancellation of membership is required and must be in writing and submitted to the attention of Deborah Waugh, Finance Administrator, The Pride of Texas, 1763 Upland, Houston, Texas 77043. . Your registration fee is good for a full year, so if you would like to come back, all you need to do is give us a call and select a class. Athletes that drop a class without giving written notice will continue to be responsible for monthly tuition.
Make-Up Classes and Class Changes
Make-ups must be completed while the athlete is still actively enrolled in a class. If, at anytime, you need to change your current class, please contact the front desk so that we may assist you in finding the appropriate day and time.
Registration and Tuition
There is a $50 registration fee that is good for one year. Classes are $65/month, additional classes are $50/month. Tuition will be pro-rated for athletes that sign up for a class in the middle of the month. Tuition and registration fees are non-refundable and non-transferrable between athletes. All payments are due on the 1st of the month. Payments received after the 5th of the month will be charged a $25 late fee. Any payments resulting in a NSF (non-sufficient funds), declined credit card, returned check, etc. will be charged a $35 service charge.

All of these classes are available in YOUTH for ages 4-8. If The Pride of Texas feels a certain athlete should advance to the normal Level 1 or 2 classes even though they are still within the age range to stay in Youth, it is the parents decision to advance their athlete or not. Youth classes will incorporate more trampoline time, and technique and will move at a fun, but slow pace.
The Pride of Texas is a great place to bring your school squad for training. Whether you come to us or we come to you, we can design a program to best fit the needs of your team. We have expert instructors available for stunts, tumbling, jumps, competition routines, and pep rally choreography. Contact the gym today to see how we can help your team become stronger!
PRICES: All athletes are required to pay a $50 Annual Registration Fee to train. Training at the Pride of Texas is $50.00 monthly per athlete. The Pride of Texas prefers if the school district or Sponsor sends in ony check for the full teams amount, rather then 20 separate checks.
