I have two daughters and between the dance world and now cheer, we have a lot of experience with private lessons. I will easily say Raj is one of the best we have experienced.

We recently moved to the area and was looking or a summer camp for my Kinder. We heard great…read morethings about Refuge from one of the local moms group so we decided to sign him up. We met with Lisa and did a tour of the church/campus. Oh my goodness, this place was huge! (got a lot of steps that day lol) We signed my son up for 3-4 days a week for a couple of months. I love that it's a secured campus, each parent sign their kid in through an app, as well as have a designated code for the gate for drop off and pick up. The classrooms are separated by age groups, which I love! My son got to spend his days there interacting with other kids his exact school age. During recess, I believe they get to interact with a few other grade kids. Everyday there is a planned event like movie day, on site field trip day where local vendors come on site and do activities with them, water day, tech day, etc. They do not provide lunch, so you'll have to pack a cold lunch daily. WATER is a MUST! It gets soooo hot, so don't forget! A few months ago, my son asked for us to sign him up again. He really loved the environment, and his teachers! I believe her name is Lindsay?? Not 100% sure but he really liked her energy. Anyway, we're signing him up again this year!

After many months of being outcasted by this nightmare of a place I am ready to share my…read moreexperience. This is my experience as a parent to other parents, I am not in need of a response from any person affiliated with this place. The director and the owner lady (her picture is seen here as owner) are fake frauds. They smile and say all the correct things until they no longer like you. When attempts were made to work directly with the teacher, it seemed great, but not to these two ladies, next day I was asked by them to meet so they could tell me bluntly we are going to dismiss you and your child from our center, sign here, let's go collect your child's items. Okay bye! A household with two working foster parents. This was a foster child. Oh yeah, It was a no go to have a county social worker visit child at the site...huge red flag. Can't begin to express the hardship they made me go through when asked if my child could be given albuterol for asthma. Christian compassion?! What a joke. I pray their ministry is better than the practice of their child care center. God bless this place, for they know not what they do.

I rarely write reviews, but when credit needs to be given, I make it a point to do so. Our daughter…read morehas been attending Refuge Christian Preschool since November 2023, and I must emphasize that both my wife and I are very protective--some might even say too protective. In fact, I am often referred to as a helicopter mom. Initially, we planned to homeschool our daughter because we believed we were the only ones who could ensure her safety and care. However, as she grew older, we noticed her longing for more social interaction, especially since her sister is significantly older, and the only time she was really able to socialize with children her age was during Sunday classes at church. So, we decided to look around and see if we could find a place that felt right. After some research and a few school tours, we found Refuge. The school administrator, Lisa, was absolutely welcoming and wonderful. Based on our impression, their mission statement, and feedback from our daughter, we decided to enroll her. Fast forward to today, I must express how completely satisfied we are--actually, satisfied is an understatement. We are beyond pleased with the amazing people dedicating their time to our daughter and all the kiddos! The level of love from the director, Ms. Dina, and teachers Ms. Jodene, Ms. Alexis, and Ms. Natalie is something every parent prays for when leaving their child in the hands of someone else. They are excellent at communicating with parents, go above and beyond to make the kiddos feel safe, and the special events they create are truly magical. I am the kind of person who is an overthinker and can usually point out anything that is not right, or tend to correct things that are not being done as I would do them when it comes to our children. But with the nurturing teachers that our little girl has and Ms. Dina overseeing it all, I can honestly say there hasn't been any cause for concern. I actually feel a sense of ease dropping her off at school every morning, and for me that is definitely saying a lot!!! Some highlights for us include the growth we've seen in our daughter, the excitement she shows when she tells us about her day, and the scriptures she learns and recites. There are so many amazing things I could say about Refuge, Ms. Dina, Ms. Jodene, and Ms. Alexis, but the best testament is that our daughter genuinely loves them, and that means everything to us! We've been happy with many decisions we've made, but enrolling our daughter at Refuge is by far one of the best!

I just started chemotherapy and can already feel the toll it's taking on my body. Emily listened to me and was ready for our session based on my responses.

Emily is a master of building a focused intensity, but one that is wise, gentle and warm at the same time. There is a deep calm and settling into one self.

At the end of each class, I left feeling totally at peace with myself and the world. Manteca has received quite a treasure!

I want to take this opportunity to commend and acknowledge the wonderful staff at Memory Lane Manor…read morefor the phenomenal care they provided my dear Uncle Norman Silveira until the end of his life. My 94 year old uncle was the most honorable and honest person I have ever known. He was loving and caring and his favorite activity was anything that involved his family. Unfortunately, Uncle Norman was diagnosed with dementia, accompanied by sundowners. His behavior changed so drastically that he was unrecognizable, even to himself. In his lucid moments he even apologized for any past or future behavior because he honestly had no idea when or why he acted out. His two daughters, my cousins, were dedicated to helping him live out his life with as much dignity and freedom as possible. What none of us could have ever imagined was that there are so few facilities that are able to adequately and safely care for someone with his condition. He was asked to leave 2-3 facilities, even after they assured his family that they could care for him. In the end, options for his care was very limited. After much frustration and sadness, my cousins were finally and mercifully led to Memory Lane Manor in Modesto, California. The staff at Memory Lane Manor, led by the phenomenal Consuela Hozan-Farcas and her team of angels, lovingly cared for Uncle Norman where other facilities failed him. Due to his condition, he was extremely difficult to handle at times. He presented some great challenges to staff that required extra time and effort but they offered it willingly and compassionately. Consuela and her team treated my Uncle Norman with respect, dignity and compassion and extended that care to our family as well. It is one of the most stressful and sad situations a family has to deal with to see a beloved family member reduced to a shadow of their former selves. His daughters worried every moment of every single day, until they discovered Memory Lane Manor When Uncle Norman ended up in hospice care, Consuela, members of her staff and even her husband and children came to visit Uncle Norman and they even attended his memorial. That was above and beyond the call of duty, and much appreciated by his family. Memory Lane Manor provided great comfort during the most trying time to my Uncle Norman and his family. Our family will be forever grateful to this amazing group of people for making sure his final days were filled with compassion, safety, respect and dignity. With utmost respect and gratitude, Shar Silva on behalf of the Silveira family

All the previous reviews are primarily about the contracts & I get it. I've moved several times and…read morebeen to several gyms and dealing with the contracts are the absolute worst. In any case, I am always upfront from the very beginning and I let wherever I am at know that I am always temporary. This was the case here and I did everything required to end my contract after two months and it went smoothly (granted, yes there was a few more steps than I would've thought). This following review will be entirely about the instruction and the classes. Again, I was here for two months & in those two months I got an amazing workout, felt comfortable with the instructor, and made some good friends & acquaintances with the extremely friendly people who frequent this place. The people themselves make this place worth coming. Even whilst I have moved to another country, my friends who are still attending this school encourage me to visit, and I always do! Workout totally kicks your butt in a good way too (: Yes, I would recommend if you're looking for a new and fun workout.

We decided to go check out this park, which is only a few minutes away, with a friend. We stopped by about lunchtime on a Wednesday, and overall, we were happy with our experience here! Key Features: - skatepark - Huge parking lot - community center - 2 play structures (one for younger kids, and one for older) - permanent cornhole field - 2 different covered picnic areas - Dog pick up stations - Large flat grass field - a portion of the large structure is accessible The only thing that we were missing here was swings , they didn't have any. That aside, the western themed and train themed playground was a fun change. The park seemed well-maintained, everything was very clean which I appreciate as a mom of Littles. Everyone here was friendly, it was all families and people walking their dogs. Definitely a fun park and a great addition to the area.

What really sets this gym apart from others I've been to is how involved and supportive the coaches are. From day one, they made me feel welcome and encouraged. They take the time to explain the exercises, make sure you're doing them correctly, and truly help you get the most out of each workout. One extra touch that really stands out is how involved the owner, Danny, is. He actually takes the time to check in with you, see how things are going, and make sure you're feeling supported. Even the motivating emails make a difference -- they help keep you accountable and remind you why you're showing up in the first place. This gym feels less like a place you just work out and more like a community that actually cares about your progress. Highly recommend if you're looking for encouragement, guidance, and a place that genuinely wants to see you succeed.

I was recently reminded that I've been a member at Excel for seven years now- crazy how time flies!…read moreI first joined this gym to train with the competitive athletes but was surprised by how much I fell in love with the gym and its incredibly positive and uplifting community. Community is a big deal here, and building it is one of the main focuses of the gym. The coaches are also great at providing knowledgeable/personalized feedback. I know people are hesitant to invest in a CrossFit membership ($$) but coming from someone who's paid for multiple gym memberships and barely used them, this one is definitely worth it. The value is in having a whole community help push you towards your fitness goals. So many days I didn't feel like training but then started working out with friends and all of a sudden, it's like you're playing a game. Everyone is beyond friendly here and finding people willing to suffer through a WOD with you is pretty easy. If you want to have fun and improve your health and fitness in the process, I'd definitely recommend Excel for you.
