In fact, my daughter is her school's mediator. Ive left a handful of poor reviews out of nearly 1000 reviews. And not ONCE have I had a company act with such poor taste. Again, I do not troll businesses. I have made factual reviews... why would this be any different. The email from the owner was very flippant... esp after I attempted to help her build her business and keep the business of the people who were flocking to get out. Additionally, I have time to provide reviews to the public. And contray to what you have made up (which was poor business sense), I dont believe life has left me behind. For the record I own a multi million dollar company and own several pieces if real estate to include apartment complexes. Life has been great to me. I hope that this company gets it's communications aligned to more professionalism and can prosper as Ive been blessed with.

On the 1st day when the Black Onyx began their routine the music stopped and started several times. When it finally seemed like the situation was corrected the music stopped half way through and the girls finished the performance with the audience counting the beat. We later learned it was Platinum Force errors. NO apology or acknowledgement of the situation from the owner. Wow. Day 2, the team ran on stage and the music blared loudly..."What the "f_" are these "n_'s?" Fill in the blanks. Everyone was shocked and appalled. Again no apologies from the owner. These are just two examples of this disappointing, place.......if you haven't surmised it yet, this place is a ghetto mess. Owner is petty and void of class.

Sport Fit Bowie is an excellent gym in the area. I particularly like them for these reasons:…read more1. Swimming pool! The indoor pool is heated and has great exercise classes. My favorite part is the swimming classes for the kids. For the price (member and non member), you can get excellent instruction. It can get crowded with a lot of students but a good deal just the same for the price and length of time (30 min) 2. Friendly community! It feels like a family when you join Sports Fit Bowie. Most of the members have been there for years and enjoy the small yet big gym (as in the size of the facilities) feel 3. Down side to having committed members is that the the equipment is a little bit older, especially in the exercises classes BUT the instructors really make up for it. With the family atmosphere the instructors take the time to know you and constantly monitor you to do the right thing to prevent injuries. 4. Bathroom facilities are amazing! I love taking a shower here because it is so clean! Family bathrooms need some constant upkeep like the regular bathrooms but not too bad.

The minute you walk in, there is a calming feeling with the smell of scented oils, and yoga rooms are soothing with soft music playing. I am grateful I found this studio. Thank you! Linda

For more than a year now, I am a regular at a number of classes and I love the pool. My guests always enjoy the treadmills and weight machines as well. Staff is friendly and helpful, and the instructors are all incredible. It's a pleasant, clean place with a non-judgy vibe. Truly all ages and workout levels. My only request for management would be to turn off so many cable news broadcasts over by the treadmills. Working out should feel like a healthy escape, so less political news (or none at all!) would help lower my blood pressure even more. :)

Strongly do not recommend LA Fitness personal training…read more My husband had been an LA Fitness member for years. When we renewed, we were offered a "free" fitness assessment that turned into a high-pressure sales pitch for personal training. The trainer (Ryan) claimed he doesn't try to sell training, then brought over his supervisor when I expressed hesitation. We were sold a "modified" plan and were explicitly told we could cancel for any reason if something happened, no questions asked. This was not the case. During my first training session, I nearly passed out and became very unwell for the next couple of days. I am now under medical evaluation (possible POTS) that limits my ability to exercise. My doctors provided notes and a formal letter. Despite this: * We were told to come in person to cancel, then turned away twice * Staff claimed they couldn't locate the trainer or wouldn't cancel due to a "holiday," even while present * Management ultimately stated cancellation was impossible unless I was permanently disabled Even my physician was shocked by how this was handled. If you're considering personal training here: get every promise in writing or don't sign at all. What is said during the sales process does not match how cancellations are handled.

My son started at this daycare when he was 9 months old while social distancing was still in…read moreeffect. My tour with them was virtual, and I had toured many daycares at the time, but this one left me with that "good gut feeling" that this was the place! We haven't looked back since! My son has truly thrived here, as I always notice that he's learned new things even before I've introduced it to him. He has been loved by his teachers so much and he's already made so many friends. He is 2 years old now and says his friends names everyday on his way to school. Impressionable Years is wonderful and I would highly recommend it! I will say that they've had some turnover with some teachers and similar to many daycares, one of our cups went missing and they could improve on some organizational skills but we are all human and they always keep my baby safe and loved and I know it's a great place because everyday since he's started, he's been excited when we arrived and any question or concern I've ever had, has been addressed timely! They are also super clean and clean the toys and rooms often and have "parents night out" usually once a month which is an awesome way to know your kid is with someone you know and trust and you can have a nice evening out or even at home to yourself! I could say so much more, but all I need to say is, it's a great place. Your child will learn, remain developmentally on target (even early), be loved and cared for, have lots of time outside, and establish friendships!

Ms. Kiara displays unprofessional behavior. She allows personal relationships to interfere with her professional responsibilities, creating conflicts that negatively impact the daycare environment and, ultimately, the children. Her involvement of personal relationships with male parents at the workplace is inappropriate, and her communication with parents is disrespectful and lacking professionalism. Do not send your kids here Additionally, Ms. Carrie as well in particular, spoke to me in a very disrespectful and inappropriate manner regarding my child. Her tone was rude, dismissive, and unprofessional, very aggressive which is unacceptable when addressing a parent's concerns and down talking children; racism has occurred at this daycare as well. Parents should feel safe, informed, and respected when entrusting others with their children. Unfortunately, that was not my experience at this daycare. Stay away and stay aware. It's surprising because it's a very good location in Crofton it's the staff that is unprofessional and my child felt as though they were treating others better than my child, unfair and poorly.

So, I got to check out the grounds around the main building before the bride and groom arrived for rehearsal. They have a wonderful wandering Garden with Fountains and water features.

In addition to the new main structure, they have Historical buildings and Summer camps.

Howard County Conservancy…read more We'll walk you to see the biggest beaver dam in Howard County Conservancy. Are you excited? Let's walk with us to the Wetlands trail! First you walk from the parking lot to the old barn, you can see it's located by the entrance roadside, and once you get there, walk down the trail, and keep going. You'll be in sort of intersection on your left but we won't turn left here, keep walking and you'll see a walking path *watch on your right with a (ruined) stone gate alike. Walk across the stone gate, turn left and walk for around 10-15 foot steps and turn right, and keep walking until you'll see a sign of small pond on your left, then you're on the right path. You can walk closer to the pond through the short path on your left (that's what we did) and watched any movement around the water, and we found a turtle from here! Or, you can continue walking down the previous path until you see a bridge on your left. From the bridge, you'll see the biggest beaver dam was created along the water line. How cool is that? Another coolest thing was, we bumped into THE BEAVER!! Aaaahhhh!?! Yeeessss!?! We explored and walked back to the trail and found wineberries patch and mulbery tree, so we stopped there and enjoy the berries! *check your left while walking up the hill. Along the walk, we also found A Story Walk, a Demonstration Garden next to Nature Play Scene, a sleeping Eastern Screech Owl, goats house and chickens house. That's a wrap for our good hike today!
