Dynamite, yes. We started in fall 2020 so I’m not familiar with the gossip. That must not be restrictive to this gym though (the gossip). Was that really an issue? Wow. The video is meh, and I can’t take screenshots or record the video. With masks, I can’t even tell if my daughter is smiling. How do you know about masks being dropped? I hadn’t heard this. Thanks!
NP. You sound really helicoptery. Just let your daughter take her class without you hovering over her, and ask her later how it was.

NP. I’m not at all a helicopter mom nor do my kids do gymnastics, but not allowing parents inside would be a deal breaker for me. At this point, it isn’t a safety issue in regards to viral spread. If there is another reason they don’t want parents in, then they should address it.
Waiting in your car in a parking lot for a 1 hr class isn’t comfortable and wouldn’t continue to do this, if they don’t have a valid reason and are posting passive aggressive signs. I’d switch places OP. Better yet, find a new sport for her, seriously.
So what you are saying is that you are more concerned about your experience as a parent than your child's experience as a learner. That is breathtakingly selfish. My goodness do better.

I think you are overestimating how much they want your $25/week. If you require that much attention. They don't want you. You are more than $25 worth of nuisance.

Allowing nuts parents in is a deal breaker for me. I don't want my kids exposed to those types of people. I want my kids to be able to focus in a peaceful environment and for the facility to be able to focus on the students not entertaining the parents.

Thank goodness. You are just the kind of nut job parent we hope to avoid in our child's activities. Posting signs isn't passive aggressive. Seriously.

There's enough other weird stuff with gymnastics that still not being allowed in at this point would give me serious pause. I'd at the very least ask management what the plan is going forward.
Then don't take gymnastics

When my daughter was 4, she wanted to take ballet. I looked around and most studios required kids to have their hair in a bun. That wasn't happening, so I found a place that didn't have that requirement. What I DIDN'T do was call studios where it was a requirement, ask them to make an exception for me and my special snowflake, and then blast them on the internet when they refused.
ahh you sound like someone who doesn't expect the world to cater to you

In any times other than the pandemic this is a violation of Safe Sport and would be reportable but I know there are some exceptions now for pandemic safety measures. I would definitely find out the plan going forward as this cannot be allowed forever. I have a daughter who practices 9 hours a week (different gym) and I rarely stay but the point is that I can if I want to check out what's going on.
It still is a violation of SafeSport. They have to allow in parents (with precautions OK) OR provide a video stream.

This.
If you really feel that way why sign up for gymnastics at all.
