So I took my drivers test here this morning after the DMV made me. Colorado is such a weird place…read morewhy wouldn't you just test for you driving test for a drivers license at the DMV is beyond me. I guess it's just another way for a middleman to charge you $86 to take a test just so you can wait another three months to actually take your results for the test to the DMV for an actual license. my frustrations, aren't with this place though it's with the DMV itself. Anyway, you have to make an appointment online and you even get to pick your instructor. I chose Elliot. Worked out good for me because he was really friendly and surprisingly funny. Made the test seem less nerve racking than I was making it out to be. Pro tip if they give you the option don't pick route 9 there's a stop sign you can barely see cause of bushes and low hanging branches on trees. I had to stop last minute wasn't a fun way to begin the test. (if you run the stop sign it's an automatic fail) Oddly enough, they do have a lot of amenities in the office like snacks and drinks and stuff which is not what you would expect! Anyway five stars because I passed

I took the the Wheels in Motion Basic Rider course recently and I can't say enough good things…read moreabout the class! The group I learned with were all great people, and we were lucky to have Jason and Mundi as our instructors. They were knowledgeable, insightful, dedicated, encouraging and fun. It was clear from the first hour that the only way to pass the course was to acquire the skills taught in each section of the training. The course work is excellent, and very effectively teaches a total beginner (or moderately experienced rider) how to ride safely. If you are motivated, and pay attention to the coaching, you will most likely pass the course. I know I am a more confident, safer rider for having taken the course. Wheels In Motion gets an A+ in my book!

I can't recommend Drive Right Academy enough. They are consummate professionals. They are very…read moreresponsive to phone calls and emails. I easily made an appointment to take my road test. The day of my test Susan was easy to find and was willing to answer all of my questions. Once the test got started she put me at ease and the rest of the test was an absolute breeze. If I had known about them when I started working toward getting my Colorado DL, I would've chosen them from the start.

Overall I think my experience was amazing I will definitely be recommending them to friends.

We used the website to set up a driving test and it was quick and easy. Our tester was Dina. She is…read morekind and is very thorough. She doesn't fail you if you do like one thing wrong but you should be prepared knowing the rules for left turns, right turns, merging, school zone signs, and crossing traffic. Always be looking over your shoulder to change lanes, and using all of your mirrors at all times and go the speed limit and you should have no trouble passing. My daughter is extremely shy and has higher anxiety and she was very nervous but Dina helped her feel at ease.

Extremely Disappointed -- No Communication at All I…read moreunderstand that sometimes businesses have to close, but the complete lack of communication here was really upsetting. We had an appointment and didn't even know the business had shut down until we showed up--only to find a handwritten paper note taped to the door saying they were closed. I took time off work (which cost me income) and pulled my kid out of school for this appointment. We rearranged our day, only to be met with silence and a piece of paper. Loyal customers (second child to go through the program) deserve at least a little consideration and a heads-up. Do better!

No return phone call when I attempted to find out why no one showed up. Canceled my son's driving test for no reason, forced to reschedule and take him out of school. Showed up today, place was closed with a note on the door saying that they no longer are doing driving tests and another company would be doing the driving tests. I received both an email and text confirmation for this appointment just 2 days ago. We went to the other company who knew nothing about my son or his appointment. Took him out of school for nothing. No call, text, or email letting us know about their situation. Woukd stay far away from this company. Also pretty sure that I paid for the test when I signed up for his test, but had to pay another $90 to get his test scheduled with the other company.

Tons of fun on any day or night of the week!…read more I came to Brushes N Beverages Art Studio for the first time on a Friday night. I had heard a lot about this place recently and was looking forward to trying it out. It is located in a downtown loft space right across from the Sangre de Cristo Arts Center with lots of parking in the front off of Sante Fe. When I arrived the owners Rick and Sue welcomed me into their beautiful paint studio and offered me a variety of drinks and snacks to choose from. I spent the first few minutes getting acquainted with the nice and friendly owners, the teacher of the class, and the other students, then it was time to put my apron on and get to painting! The studio is fairly large for lots of individual painters, as well as for bigger private parties/groups. We all got to pick a seat which was already set up with our own personal easel, canvas, brushes, and a variety of paints to get started. Apparently Brushes N Beverages offers different painting themes on different days/nights of the month. On this particular night we painted a beautiful mountain range with a sunset lit sky! I have no prior painting experience and I have to say that I have not had this much fun in a long time! The teacher was super patient and thoroughly explained which brushes to use, how to mix our colors to make our paintings a little more customizable (the guy next to me wanted to paint a "Denver Bronco colored sunset"), how to create different blending effects, textures, etc.. She even walked around to check on each of our paintings a few times to offer specific help and tips on how to make our paintings as beautiful as possible. After a very enjoyable 2 hours I found myself sitting in front of a beautiful masterpiece! haha! I am so proud of my painting and everything that I learned in just one night at Brushes N Beverages, but most of all, when I look at my painting I remember how much fun it was and what a new experience it was for me in Pueblo! I am going to highly recommend this place to everyone I know! I already want to bring all of my family and friends back here so that they can experience it too! I imagine this place would be perfect for family outings, a cool date experience, girls night out, bachelorette parties, work functions, family/high school reunions, birthday parties, baby showers..the list goes on! Basically, it would be perfect for any occasion where you want to do something different, learn something new, have a drink, relax, have fun, and be proud of yourself when you sign your beautiful painting with your name! Thank you for one of my best nights in Pueblo Brushes N Beverages! I will definitely be back!
