I have never been the one to get into fitness at all, but each instructor takes their time with you no matter how large the class is. They are each so empowering and I feel like I have made a real connection with everyone I come into contact there. They want you to succeed in your goals. You really start to ache for it when you aren't there, it becomes your second family. Thank you aerial Dragons Studios for teaching me to honor myself

You know when something comes into your life at the right moment? Like the stars just align and…read more-BAM- there it is? Well, that's sort of how I see Shevon. This man is top notch - he knows his shit, he has a great vision, and he has an even better personality. Seriously, I'm a whiner about just about everything (okay, some of it is self-deprecation and hilarious) and he deals with it with total grace. He will kick your ass in the best of ways. Things will hurt or be tender the next day or two. He'll even advise you in proper jump-rope technique lest you find yourself a little too crippled the next day - and in my case high heels are off the table for a bit. I think he's amused at this recent life development, but I could be wrong. He will also mess with your head. In addition to laughing my ass off, some things that have either come out of my mouth or run through my head - "Did I just do that? Wait, he wants me to do what? I'm sure as hell I can't do that... FACK! How did I just end up here? Oh dammit... Shit this is going to suck tomorrow." He's well-trained and speaks a few different dance languages; this is how I first found the Sultan. I remember catching a couple of his performances in the area and he had this insane energy that Tampa is missing. If you want to talk about someone being magnetic, this is a prime example. I showed up to his in-home studio a couple weeks ago with no real plan other than he was going to school me in something new. I was minus my iPod and he asked if I had any music. I pulled a lone CD out and he ran with it. "Have you done any partnered dance?"... Nope! On day one I found myself getting spun around and dipped (among other things), all while making really ridiculous noises because I'm a control freak and it... Freaked me out. But hey, new experiences are good for me, right? So, I found myself dabbling in "intro to ballroom" for the first time, revisiting some flamenco, and falling back into the belly dance thing (though I haven't left it since I first started back in '07). If you want to talk about getting into fusion done correctly though... This is it. No one else in the area does what Shev does. So, what else is there to say? This isn't a weekly drop-in class; you don't just show up. If you want a regular day/time slot I'm sure he would work with you; a friend and I have started assigning Sundays to dance/ass-kicking "church" with Father Shevon (yeah, it's a terrible joke, I know). I can't help but love this new ritual in my life because it's so refreshing to work with someone so professional who can also put you at ease. Tampa doesn't know what kind of gem it has because frankly, he's too good for it.

Don't be fooled by the basic décor; the magic is in people. From the first step in the door I was really comfortable, but meeting Shevon James was a completely uplifting experience! As the founder, he is a truly gifted and enthusiastic instructor whose charming and welcoming nature instantly puts everyone at ease. I am taking his Brancee Belly and Boot Camp sessions and the energy in the room is always electrifying. Mainly because his bright face, great music and demand for form bonds everyone in the room into one ball of energy, sweat and great endorphins! This is definitely not a Barbie Doll venue. Women of all shapes, sizes and ages are representing and having a blast! Speaking for the 'over fifty' set...I have never looked forward to any fitness class but really feel down when I have to miss a class. Never had such a great time getting in shape! Shevon , is a consummate professional and he and his staff have put together programs from Ball Room to Latin, Hip Hop and everything in between with classes for kids, teens and 'the rest of us'. If you ever considered a dance fitness studio; do yourself a favor and check this one out!

It's was, I believe, high school and college age performers. And they were amazing! They were every bit as good as the pros. Yes, it's a little lower budget, of course! But still just as dynamic and entertaining. The theatre itself is a little smaller than others, but plenty big. We are fans of Mezzanine so we chose seats in a box. It was perfect! There are few concessions; consisting of drinks and snacks (candy, chips, etc). Restrooms on each floor. We thoroughly enjoyed the show and look forward to seeing more productions at Patel.

Literally no fish whatsoever. You walk around the tank as you walk around the aquarium there are window all the way around, but again, the tank was completely empty. There were other areas of the aquarium that were under construction due to either renovations or expansion. Due to this there were multiple enclosures that had no fish are animals to view. It's a little disappointing when you are traveling for vacation and the aquarium was the place that your daughter was looking forward to the most. All this while still charging full price for admission. All that being said, they have a very friendly and informed staff and volunteers that clearly do a lot for the marine life. It is very commendable the way they are nursing injured marine life back to health. Definitely more of a rescue center than an aquarium.
