Corrections should be given each class in order to achieve proper improvement. If your dancer is wanting a hobby, then this is the place for you.

Please reconsider sending your child to this rundown facility. Not even a water fountain to refill…read morea thermos and only one bathroom for both boys and girls in the waiting area. The owner, Cathy Moran, is not interested in your child. She has been known to yell at young children and especially overheard yelling during Nutcracker rehearsals. She is not someone who can be trusted behind closed doors with your child. She will berate their character and destroy their spirit. She is not interested in your dancer's progression in any form of dance. This has been proven time and time again. The big money maker for this studio is Nutcracker and recital. Pay attention to costume fees. You'll be charged for more costumes than you receive and they've been known to reuse old costumes. Meanwhile dancing the same dances from years past. No originality and not worth your time or money.

It is apparent they put a lot of time and energy into each class offered so the members get the best workout. I've taken all of the class formats offered and enjoy each one. I'm not the most coordinated dancer, but I've never felt like anyone is paying attention to my missteps or embarrassed about my dancing. As long as I keep moving and keep my heart rate up, I'm getting a workout!! I made the choice to get healthy by changing my diet and adding Vibe Vault Fit into my life about 3 years ago. Kristine, Bhavna and the Vibe Guides have supported and cheered me on every step of the way. Whether you are just starting your fitness journey or a long time athlete this studio will give you a great workout in any class!!

They have a great variety of classes: Zumba, Bombay Jam, Beat HIIT, PiYo, Yoga, Barre classic, Barre Pump, and 305. Some of these classes are hard to find anywhere else or aren't offered in gyms nearby. I've taken all of these except Yoga and I really enjoy them all. It's a great variety of cardio and strength training. The instructors are fantastic. Each one is friendly and welcoming. They make a point of asking if anyone is new and they show modifications. What I also appreciate is that there are all body types and fitness levels, so it's not intimidating.

I had a great experience in an adult tap class here, and then was charged almost three times what I…read morehad expected to spend. I had done pretty thorough research online, and even called ahead that evening to make sure it would be OK if I came to the class--my scheduling made me unable to come before, but my evening cleared up and it was something I'd wanted to do for a while. The person I spoke with on the phone seemed excited to have a new student, and encouraged me to come. Online, it says $15 per class, and as someone pursuing a career in musical theater, I follow a tight budget, and that fit in with what I typically spend for dance classes elsewhere. When I got there, I filled out new student forms, and she tells me there's a $25 "tuition fee"...I tell her that this is news to me and it doesn't quite make sense in my case since this is the only class I can attend in the semester, and I had misunderstood and thought it was ok to "drop in", like at most adult dance classes. She insisted that it's a tuition based program, so I considered leaving, without doing the class. At that point, she said to do the class and we can figure it out after. Turns out her idea of "figuring it out" after was to just make me pay it. I left in tears (I know, it's a bit of an overreaction, but I just felt very blindsided and taken advantage of, especially considering I had checked online AND called ahead to avoid surprises like this)... overall, great class but a pretty terrible taste was left in my mouth by the administration.

Five Stars Isn't Enough!…read more From the moment I walked into this dance studio, I knew I had found something special. Every single instructor is not only highly skilled but also genuinely supportive and welcoming. No matter your experience level, they meet you exactly where you are and guide you with patience, encouragement, and joy. What makes this place truly extraordinary is that it's not just about learning to dance--it's about healing. If you're looking for something therapeutic, something that reconnects you with yourself in the most joyful, unexpected way... this is it. For me, dancing here has been more transformative than I ever imagined. What started as a hobby ended up being the most healing thing I did during a challenging time in my life - and the instructors, without realizing it - have played a big part in this transformation. The dance parties are an absolute blast, and the studio goes above and beyond with fun events like bowling nights and picnics that bring people together outside the dance floor too. It's clear they're not just teaching dance--they're building a beautiful, welcoming community for people who love to move, laugh, and connect. If you're even thinking about trying a class, do it. This studio is a gift--one I didn't know I needed until I walked through the door.

Decent weight machines (few fixable issues) and free weights. Sauna is always a treat after a workout. Front end staff and sales are friendly and professional. The bad: Cardio machines... Fix all the broken equipment at the Downingtown location: ellipticals, no cup holders for the elliptical machines- safety hazard placing water bottles on the floor, ab crunch machine that isn't securely bolted to the floor, and replace knobs for the leg extension machine because the numbers rubbed off. Today I saw 2 ellipticals with "out of order" signs. The elliptical next to those 2 is also out of order. I'm sure there's more. This gym is not kept up with or safe with some of the equipment. Also in the aerobics room, there's too many mats. West Chester LA Fitness never received their order for mats which might be the reason Downingtown has too many.

At the time, the Karate Kid was popular and my parents had a coupon to the Dragon Gym, They figured, at the least, two weeks free training and a uniform would be a neat experience. For the next 14 years, the Dragon Gym transformed me into a disciplined, healthy, and focused individual, and helped lay the foundation for spiritual growth and introspection. It's so much more than an activity. It's a way of life. The current head master, Somnath Sikdar, and his partner, Master Lonnie Beck, came up with me through the ranks. After a 20 year absence from the area, I've returned to find that the current iteration of the gym has maintained what makes the Dragon Gym special, while adding different arts and programs and putting great effort into tailoring progression to fit a child's intellectual,physical, and psychological development. To sum it up, there's nothing like the integration of body, mind, and spirit coupled with the ability to focus and overcome challenges in your life. I cannot think of a better extracurricular practice for a child to grow into and be prepared for adulthood than becoming part of the Dragon Gym family.
