I decided to sign up for a beginners pole class to use up some time I had while waiting for my car getting a service. I love how personal the class was. There was only about 5 of us. I had always wanted to try pole dancing and it's so much harder than it looks!!! It was a great way to gauge my strength. I was sore for days after. Our instructor was super knowledgeable and encouraging. Made this newcomer feel super welcome. Would I do it again?? Absolutely. But I do feel I need a bit more strength training in other areas in order to succeed. I still had a lot of fun.

Veronica, the studio director, is lovely and very responsive to any concerns or questions. When one of my girls started ballet/tap, she was scared of the tap noise and Veronica found a class that fit better for her. Then this past year she joined ballet/tap and loved it. There's a class for everyone and every level. My girls have taken hip hop, jazz, ballet, and tap and enjoyed all styles. Also, the recitals are a big professional production. It's so amazing to see the kids perform on stage and build confidence. My daughter performed with EDA at the Alameda County Fair this past summer and it was so exciting for her. It's definitely a family friendly studio. I would absolutely recommend EDA!

My daughter has been taking dance classes here for a few years and we love Expressions. She'd taken…read moreballet classes at another studio before and we'd found it quite strict and traditional. Expressions is so friendly and welcoming to all dancers. They're inclusive to all body types, dance styles and experience levels and maintain a motto for kindness: "Be kind; dance fierce."

The studio is a place where our daughter was truly seen, supported, and encouraged. Brian has had a lasting impact on her. He believed in her, kept her motivated, and reminded her of the artist she was becoming. She poured so much into it, and that support helped her love for dance grow even more. Bill and Brian care deeply about their dancers, and it shows. Watching them tear up as seniors graduate says everything. Our daughter didn't just grow as a dancer. She has grown as a person. And now, as she wraps up her time at TTPA, it's amazing to look back and see how far she has come, all in a place that never lost sight of what really matters.

When I was little I always felt intimidated by dance schools because of the lights, large studio,…read moreand lack of colorful decor or designs! When I first stepped into Tutu School Pleasanton I instantly knew my daughter would feel comfortable, safe, and excited! The color scheme of the studio is a warm yet bright pastel, the pretty tutu dresses on the walls make my daughter feel pretty in her own tutu dress, the size of the studio isn't overly open to where my daughter would feel nervous or scared to dance, everything about the design of the studio and shop is so inviting! My daughter will be dancing with tutu school for almost a year now, and not once did any of the teachers disappoint! They are friendly, beautifully unique, and talented! They are always so patient and positive and make all the children including their parents feel noticed and welcome! Can't wait to see how far my baby girl will go with ballet because of Tutu School!

Miss Sherri, Miss Jen, Miss Pam, Miss Lauren, Miss T, Miss Jackie, Miss Jen B, Miss Julia and all of the staff are the best teachers I could have asked for. Apart from growing as a dancer, within my classes I learned friendship, teamwork, responsibility, and kindness. Most importantly, Jazz N Taps is a family-ran company who cares about their dance family deeply. I participated in two dance marathons, working alongside my dance friends and teachers, as JnT donated all of the proceeds to Dancers Against Cancer. Four years later, Jazz N Taps is always family.

This workout is extremely challenging but I felt my core getting stronger + it's FUN. I had to cancel my membership bc of expenses, but I plan on rejoining this summer because I miss it so very much. If you're looking for a judgment free / low impact exercise, this is the place. All the instructors are welcoming and sweet, but they're great at providing feedback on your form without making you feel icky.

Pure Barre makes working out a balanced and enjoyable experience. Whether you are looking to…read moreimprove strength, balance, flexibility, or cardio, with PB's mix of class types you can get a well-rounded fitness experience. All the instructors have great energy, and help you (safely) push yourself. Eric, Taylor and Hannah are great! Alita (front desk) is warm and informative. Only con is you get charged if you have to cancel on short notice or otherwise can't make a class you booked. I understand why it's done, but it's a consequence applied on top of already having the unfortunate experience of missing out on a class you had wanted to go to. And don't show up late, because you will not be getting in. Overall, I'm so happy I tried PB and it's been really helpful with getting me back on track with my fitness journey. My exercise regimen is more consistent now, and much more well-rounded. If you've been looking to get back into a fitness routine after a longer-than-you'd-like-to-admit break, or are otherwise curious about trying barre, I highly recommend checking out PB Pleasanton.

Has average prices Did it for the price they quoted us Did it within the time they said they would Place was clean and organized The owners of this business like their Freedom so they have a Military and Veterans Discount as a thank you to Veterans with a publicly disclosed daily Veteran Discount which provides resource to ensure Veterans (rare 7% of the population) and GIs (rare one-half of one percent of the population) opportunity to participate in American Dream Veterans and GIs' sacrifices have made possible for 100% of the population. That earned 'em another rating star. They advertise "No partner or experience required!" yet teach only ballroom, Latin and West Coast Swing dances that require a partner. That lost 'em a rating star as I've learned that these dances are by definition partner dances. Men are required to rotate so the single women get to dance with a partner because there are always more women than men. I understand this business is doing the best they can for all of their customers. I understand it's not the fault of the business that there are far more women than there are men taking their ballroom, Latin and West Coast Swing classes. The requirement all men rotate to the single women so the single women have a partner to dance with; while I stand there in dismay and indignance with no partner watching my husband dance with another woman, is wildly inappropriate to me. Perhaps this business can also teach Country line dances, Salsa line dance, Flash Mobs which are line dances, and soul line dance as these dances don't require a partner. We'd be back to learn only line dances. I spoke with some of my older women friends, and one of them directed me to the ghastly Dirty Secret of Ballroom Dance at https://www.scribd.com/doc/23523198/Dirty-Secret-of-Ballroom-Dance.
