They offer so many activities: * Laser Tag * Bowling * Arcade Games * Jump-N-Play * Esports Gaming Center (Roblox, Minecraft, and more) * Sky Trail Ropes Course * Spin Zone Bumper Cars * Rock Climbing For parents, they also have beer, wine, and concession-style food. The staff, mostly young adults or late teens, were friendly, attentive, and did a great job ensuring everything ran smoothly. There's even a dedicated pickleball area, which adds a unique touch to the facility. This place truly has something for everyone, and my kids and I had a blast. Highly recommend for family fun days or group outings!

Super fun experience at the pumpkin patch!!! We visited on the Saturday morning before Halloween…read moreand it wasn't too packed at all!! We had fun. There is a big parking lot- but be careful, the driveway to get in is really narrow and only one car fits through at a time. There is no admission fee and it is free to walk around. You also don't need reservations. There is cornhole, picnic tables to sit at, a gift shop with local good slike honey and apples, a coffee truck, a lemonade truck and popcorn for sale. There are pumpkins everywhere of different shapes and sizes available for purchase in addition to gourds and mums. We bought a mum and it was $15. There are plenty of photo opportunities and a garden to walk around in. There is also a lot of space for kids to run around in. For an additional fee, there is a wagon ride you can take that will take you to see farm animals but we didn't do this. All in all, not as many activities in my opinion as some of the other pumpkin patches around town, but I did like how close it is to town compared to some of the other pumpkin patch options and it was super cute! The staff was all really nice too!

The best way to describe my experience here is underwhelming. Perhaps it was the class they moved…read moreus to (we'd originally signed up for story time art), but what we attended didn't feel any different from arts and crafts we do at home. I wanted my toddler to get an opportunity to socialize with other kids and learn to make something new. Instead what we got were four different parent/self-led arts & crafts stations. The two women there walked around and encouraged the kids with "good jobs", but they didn't actually do anything else. My toddler was still happy at the end and said he had fun, but then again he has fun collecting rocks. Honestly, if this is what their other classes are like, I'm better off using the $35 class fee on my own art materials. I'm bummed because it seemed so awesome to have this place near us.

John, it's a struggle to get to your classes, but - I always leave your classes feeling so much better. Thank You!

Membership Fees are completely reasonable and a great way to support the Charlotte Jewish Community. Work out staff are incredible non-judgmental, friendly and helpful. It appears Administration does not allow any "Ding Dongs" to work there. Everyone working there is helpful and pleasant. Security Supervisor Mr. Randy Brown is a Mensch; - Security is on point and is very visible. They are constantly patrolling the entire grounds, which really makes us feel safe.

They then step by step told the kids what the needed to create their rooms. After the dungeon was created, Mark pulled out a game Level Up! developed, 'Dungeon Madness: Time Crash.' Every child was immersed into the game. We had to pry them away for cake, which has never happened. Oh and they were having so much fun the party ended an hour later than scheduled.

Every morning, my little baby would smile as soon as she was greeted by Ms. Aury. You could just feel the warmth and love radiating out of the infant room! The facility is new and very clean and we really enjoyed the daily updates and photos we received through the app. This place is very special and we are lucky to have found it.

They even provide feedback when they get a chance during class changes. It's a community type of atmosphere if you allow yourself to engage and participate. My kids where not very motivated in the beginning but after awhile they really started digging it. Pricing might be an obstacle for lower income families. I made the financial sacrifice because my son needed something like this after being beat up in school. Coming here really boosted his self-esteem and confidence.

My son has continued and expanded his "whole body learning" both in direct TKD skills and cardiovascular health, but also character development. My daughter participated in private lessons and received timely support by way of the Granieri's encouraging message of self-worth, self-identity, and self-defense. When other activities (baseball!!) take us from our normal participation levels, there is never judgement, only welcoming arms when we settle back into routine. My children are 14 and 11. There are many students in that age cluster. The location is easily accessible off Route 51 near the Arboretum, and the class schedules allows for flexibility to your week. We are completely satisfied and look forward to continued growth with URMA!
