While he handled all the coordination, it didn't seem difficult for him. The person he worked with was responsive and we were able to go in and use the studio for an hour before a class started.

Dance became my passion that I carried with me through college when I learn fan dancing and dabbled in KPop. Life got busy and I stopped dancing until I found this studio almost two years ago. Now on my third season at CY, I can't recommend this studio enough! I've taken classes with multiple dance teachers here, each one as supportive as the next. I have been challenged by learning different dance techniques but supported every step of the way. My classes with Kito, Chloe, Oche, and Anthony have all helped shape me into a better dancer and also rejuvenated my love for dance. I love that CY offers classes for all ages and celebrates your hard work with an optional end of season recital. Chantelle is an incredible owner who takes stride in gathering and responding to feedback. She loves to support other businesses as can be seen in her constant collaborations. I am also so grateful for having the opportunity for her to visit my school and read to my students not once but TWICE!

The only issue and was the reason we stopped was the parents are hovering over and not allowing the kids to focus on the program. My kid gets flustered when adults are staring so she was unable to what was told by Ms Lizzie. There should be some sort of understanding where you let your kid spend time with the instructor (hence you signed up for class) and not hanging over the wall recording and staring at your kids.

When one of our daughters grew frustrated with her own progress in piano and asked to end her lessons, the owner of Myriad Music suggested to try private lessons (at the same price) on a different instrument.

Our third daughter really wants to join her sisters at Myriad, so we're looking forward to enrolling her soon too. The owner, Simone, is also active in the local community and schools. We originally found out about Myriad Music because one of her teachers taught music class in our daughters' elementary school.

I've been training capoeira here for a few months now and am really happy with the class, the…read morespace, and the energy. Shawn is a patient yet excited and passionate teacher. He combines all the aspects of Capoeira, which is a brazilian martial arts form that combines physical training with music, language, culture and has a unique history. The class has a non-threatening atmosphere with adults and teens training together and the energy is diverse and supportive. Classes are still small so you get the benefits of what is almost a private class. Yet the levels are mixed enough that as a beginner you can get a sense of where you are as well and the progress there is to be made. I would highly recommend this class to both youth and beginners. As a bonus the floors are padded in this martial arts specific studio, and there are mirrors for visual feedback, which really helps in keeping you aware of your moves and how they compare with the best practices and examples.

I've been taking my six-year-old to the kids class for a few months. Shawn was fine with my…read moreparticipating, so I stay out of the way and take the class too. The kids class is lighter on the discipline than you might get in, say, a traditional karate class, but heavy on the fun. Music and rhythm are a big part of capoeira and every class has a section devoted to playing the instruments and practicing the songs. Besides the music, there is a lot of jumping and tumbling. Many of the moves resemble break-dancing. My kid loves it. I have practiced martial arts for almost 25 years, teaching for almost 20. I have multiple black belts in various styles. In my opinion, Shawn is a very talented, skilled, and knowledgeable instructor. Despite his obvious ability, he has an easygoing manner and infectious enthusiasm. I was so impressed with Shawn that I'm now taking private lessons. Capoeira itself is the culturally richest martial art that I have ever encountered. Although much of it doesn't seem so fearsome or serious, it's important to understand that the playfulness is by design. Capoeira was originally developed by slaves and other elements of society who, by necessity, were forced to disguise what they were doing. It is serious self-defense in its own right and I encourage anyone interested in martial arts to check it out.

The maestras are really kind hearted and genuinely care about every child in the class. Our daughter ends her every school day with a big hug to the maestras. The school also pays close attention to each kid's behavior and provides in-time inputs so that parents and the school work together to guide young children's everyday development. Our daughter loves all the fun school activities throughout the year, Christmas potluck, Valentine's Day dance show, Mother's Day performance...we love hanging out with the other parents. What a great group. Will be sending our son here next year, too. Kids in the class speak English to each other and all maestras speak Spanish in the class environments. It's just incredible to provide a multi-language environment to these young children and they just thrive in it.

I finally started and wasn't sure if I would stick to it since I favor high intensity workouts. I am now 1.5 months in, have joined the monthly membership and building this routine and consistency into my life. I love the breathing that takes place and it's been a really nice form of de-stressing (full time working mom of 2 kids). I've taken classes from different instructors and what I love is that each class is taught a little differently; they have their own routines. I have not felt like I've taken the same class twice. They really help you with adjustments and while I felt like I kept getting corrected, they're really intentional about helping you improve on your form and most importantly, being safe with your body. All the instructors and front desk receptionists are friendly. I'm really enjoying this new community. If you're looking to get back into being active, get curious and take a class!

I am able to offer a unique review based on the fact that I previously worked at Serendipity (as a…read moreTeaching Assistant) and am now a parent of a Kindergartener who attends this school. Also, I am a Teacher (at a different elementary school), so my standards are quite high ;-) While working at Serendipity, I was able to get to know administration and staff on a personal basis. I got a behind the scenes view. The truth is that this school is as great as it appears to be. The teachers genuinely care about their students and are extremely talented. Meaghan, the Head of the School, is down-to-earth and compassionate. She deeply cares about the families and staff she serves. My son began Serendipity in TK. He wasn't a cookie cutter child by any means. In fact, he was diagnosed with ADHD and Sensory Processing Disorder during his first year here. When I communicated this to the school, the administration was very supportive and worked with us to make his school year a positive one. This year my son is in Kindergarten and is thriving. His teacher, Ms. Kim, has embraced his many quirks (he loves to sing all day long..as a teacher myself I feel for her!). He has learned invaluable skills such as self regulation, perseverance, communication and self expression. My formerly shy child, has become an outgoing little person who is confident in who he is and isn't afraid to be himself. When you join this gem of a school, you become part of a family. It feels like Cheers where everyone knows your name :-).

The way they teach writing through step by step process as well as singing, dancing, and brainstorming was very helpful. They also learned about grammar as well as how to write postcards/letters, which I thought was useful! In this age of texting/emails/instant chats, the art of writing is truly lost in younger generation and I'm glad that this camp teaches our children useful skills for school and their future. The founders also seem like really great people. When we signed up for the camp, they called us personally to welcome our child to the camp and follow up. Will definitely return next summer.
