Her instructors are Ian and Alana and she loves them both. Ian and his wife Trista are the owners and they have a great group of caring, talented teachers. Even the people who come here on a regular basis are nice and friendly. We have seen many couples coming for private wedding lessons too. We just watched a couple perform their dance for us and it was so beautiful. I know Ian and Trista took over this business a few years ago and I think the other review on here couldn't have been on them.

Soon after we bought the voucher I became paralysed from the waist down for nearly 6months, soon after starting recovery. Once I was fully recovered and able to begin moving freely again we decided to use the voucher only to see that it was expiring in a few weeks. We called the studio to see if they would extend it and get into some classes, briefly told them of the circumstances and they very rudely shut us down and basically told us "Tough Luck" in more words than not. Tough luck ... well its very cold, rude and heartless. We had so much to deal with in that time and dancing would have lifted our spirits so much but unfortunately they were too close minded and heartless to help us out. Its a shame too, my husband and I would have loved to have something like this to do on a regular basis and would have been loyal customers...

The fiance and I have been Ceroc dancing now for a while and we're quite enjoying it…read more The difference between this and other dance classes is it's fairly casual. For the most part feet don't matter which takes out half the complexity of dancing. Guys are told not to even learn any moves until the 3rd class and then work on getting just one down. You can use this dancing at any wedding or social dancing place and fit in with the current music. There is a focus on how to lead and how to follow (missing from a lot of dance studios) and this is enforced by the constant moving of partners around the room. My guy has some issues being taught to dance (just loves it) and in this class he's found a style that seems to work for him. Short of having private lessons, this is the best he's gotten in a class by far and he's liking it more than the more formalized dance classes we've tested out. Prices aren't bad - $10 a week and that includes one or both of their lessons that week. As a female, I find this place fun but I would highly recommend this to guys looking to learn some basic dance moves because I really think this class is being sold to men who want to enjoy dancing without getting too technical.

I am beyond grateful for all the guidance and opportunities I've received at Hattori Williamson!

This is currently my second year attending the Hattori Williamson School of Ballet and my…read moreexperience has been at the highest of quality. They are the most dedicated, caring, supportive, understanding and encouraging teachers in my history of training. They have expected the highest of standard from me and upheld me to this level on a daily basis. The teachers have individualistic expectations for each student, varying on the personal level, needs and growth of the student. The staff has high expectations for us as a class and will accept nothing else but the absolute best from each individual. Not only has the staff pushed me on an artistic level but as well as on a personal level. The teachers are always there to assist me with any personal issues I may be having, even if it unrelated to the ballet studio. I see them not only as my teacher but also as my mentors, guiding me through my journey. These teaches have been my biggest assets for the past two years and have had such an incredible influence on me. They have taught me about work ethic, self motivation, expectations and self-improvement. They have never put any limits on any student and see the potential in each and every individual. The environment created is very friendly, and low stress where all students from all classes interact positively with one another. The class sizes are very small ranging from about three to ten individuals per a class. The staff puts their best foot forward daily and expects the same from us as their students. I couldn't be any happier with my experience at the H/W School of Ballet and recommend this ballet school for dancers of all ages and levels.

Pilates...that's like yoga right? WRONG…read more My physio recommended I do it to increase strength in my core. I guess I thought pilates would be like kind of like that infomercial that we've all seen on tv with some crazy lady pumping her arms back and forth while she does a weird sit up. Yeah, it's not like that at all and it's definitely not like yoga (whoops!) Basically, it's about making sure that the right muscles do the work so that you can get stronger. I went in hoping it would help with back pain...I didn't really think that it could help with other things - like my running! This place is clean, the instructors are super knowledgeable, and the small class sizes ensure that you actually get some personal attention (which is kind of the point - if form is so important, you need someone to actually pay attention to your form). Sometimes I like to pretend that I'm all hard core so I'll do a TRX class and then shuffle around for a few days afterward. I highly recommend that you invest in a few solo sessions to start - that way you learn the principles and correct movements so that you'll actually get the most out of the classes. Bottom line - No crazy ladies or weird arm pumping for me! Pilates has been such a great compliment to my other activities. If you are looking to get stronger, help with pain, or just a kick ass workout, try it out. Go in with an open mind and you will learn a ton about your body. Highly recommend.

Highly recommend R. Song Studios!

I am 4 weeks into my salsa lessons here, and its been very enjoyable so far…read more Alex and Dave are both fantastic instructors. I have taken salsa classes in the past, and the footing was slightly different. Alex and Dave took the time to explain how the count was different for this style of salsa. Alex really breaks down the steps for you, so even if you're a COMPLETE salsa newbie, as in, never have danced in your life, you will still be okay if you follow her steps and instructions. The size of the class is good, it allows for personal attention/help whenever you need it. Salsa is a stunning dance (if done right), and Alex and Dave are both VERY good-looking individuals, so when they do a dance demonstration, its quite the show. Just remember to NOT gape open-mouthed like a awestruck creep :) Yelp Kicks Butt Challenge: 1/10

We took 4 classes but it felt a bit rushed, there was a lot of technique to learn and I felt that after the first lesson we were playing catch up. The price for the lessons was fairly inexpensive so I would go back for another class. One thing to note is that you constantly switch partners. If you go without one it's great because you don't get stuck with anyone but when you go as a couple, it's a bit irritating when you don't get to dance together as much.

Poor excuse for excercise! I bought a living social deal for bootcamp classes at 403 fitness and…read morewas so disappointed. First of all it was hard to find as their sign doesn't say 403 fitness. Second the inside looks like a garage. With little equipment the "trainers" set up like 10 stations and after a lame warm up where the "trainers" pretend to be militant standing there and yell orders at u. U go through the stations for a min. Or 45 seconds. After u do this a couple times they go right into a stretch and don't bother doing a cooldown. This totals 45 min. That doesn't even get ur heart rate up long enough to burn fat. Don't waste ur $$$$

I disagree completely with the previous reviewer. This is a great boot camp for those of us who…read morehave been intimidated by the stark atmosphere of traditional gyms. My mother and I both started at this boot camp six months ago and love the easy-going atmosphere. The trainers are very personable and never bark orders at anyone. They make you feel comfortable, whether you're in great shape or haven't worked out in months! I have asthma and it's essential I have a good warm up before I exercise, and I can tell you I've never had a problem with it at these camps. I always feel warm when we start the workout. The trainers are very creative with the workouts, pulling something new out of their hats every day. They include a great mix of circuit stations, obstacle courses, crossfit-style training and all sorts of variations of interval training. They even do a fitness test every 5 or 6 weeks (I believe) so you can see how much you're progressing. The equipment they use is very basic, but they get great results with simple supplies like skipping ropes and medicine balls. I always leave feeling like I had a great workout, and usually with a smile on my face! I can tell you that this camp has changed my life. I've never been a "gym" person, and I had never done a boot camp before, but I am addicted to this class. I now go 4 or 5 days a week -- and so does my 52-year-old mother -- and I'm stronger than I have ever been in my life. Some say the building is tricky to find, but if you check their website they clearly say that the boot camp is in the facility for No Limits AFC. We found it quite easily. I love this boot camp and highly recommend it to anyone who likes to have a little laugh while they're working out in a group!
