I love that the studio is located across the street from metro Mont-Royal so I don't have to walk too much to get there. It is annoying that there are around 5 flights of stairs to walk up to the studio (I lose count every time)!! I really love the energy that the instructors bring to each class but I do find that Harsh brings more energy and difficulty in terms of movements and choreography to the classes. The music is very loud and gets you pumped and there's usually between 15-20 people per class. I've been to the Thursday night and Saturday afternoon classes. The vibe is definitely more rushed on the Thursday. Today we didn't even get to work on a choreography!! Usually that's what the last 10 minutes are reserved for. From beginning to end, we work so hard that we are drenched in sweat by the end of it. Would love it if they could turn on fans though as it gets really stuffy. For $30, you get to sign up to 4 classes and I'm so happy I did! It's a great workout and way more motivating than the gym. Looking forward to the next class and I might even sign up for more!

I discovered this little studio with my purchase of a walk-in class for Burn Bhangra Fitness on a…read moreThursday evening.The studio was conveniently located right across metro Mont-Royal next to the Jean Cotu. It was annoying to walk 4 flights steep stairs to get to the studio- but hey I am here to burn calories through cardio- guess that's not a bad thing! The reception area was cute with a little resto lounge for food purchases and a seating area. The studios are located in the same vicinity. Each studio is equipped with benches and a nearby water fountain. The Burn bhangra class was HYPED! a 5 min warm-up, 25 min & 20 min bhangra session, 10 mins of choreography had me sweating my pores out! Intense cardio but great for level fitness enthusiasts beginning to advanced. Our instructor, Harsh, was fantastic in walking us through the moves and his energy was off the walls! It took me back to my days when i did bhangra during my university days! Great song selection especially the fusion between bhangra tracks and music ft. The Weekend and Bieber! They offer flexible packages 10$ walk in class, 4 for 30$ or 90$ for 12 sessions for first time attendees only. Looking forward to my next session!

I tried 5 classes with them, with 4 different teachers. Teachers all happy, caring, smiling,…read moreenthusiastic, and energetic. (They must be getting so much endolphine from this work-out. Look really really happy, even during hard exercise) They have two categories of classes/clientele. First is for general public, and the second is top atheletes. I tried the first kind. The second kind looked like real dancers, so I didn't dare to try those classes. :-) It feels like mixture of ballet, modern dance, aerobics, and pilates. It's based on techniques developed by Miranda (Classical Stretch). The atmosphere is very supportive. The class size varies depending on hours. Studio holds any many as 10-15 I think. The bathroom clean and generous number (and size) of towels available for free. They give a free trial class. So come see it yourself. Gender ratio is a little higher on women-side, a few guys in each class, but it is a good atmosphere for everyone. Age varies from youth to silver.

It is with great pleasure that I write a review for Rachel Santos, Cadance Jazz & Pilates. I have…read moreknown Rachel both personally and professionally for well over 10 years. Rachel is a beautiful person, with an abundance of knowledge to share with her clients. As a young adult, I trained with Rachel in her jazz dance classes. From her training in dance and musical theatre at San Jose State University, Rachel brings to her jazz dance classes classical jazz style from her warm-up, to her across the floor, and choreography. Today, I am a busy dance studio owner & teacher. For this reason, I began training with Rachel in Pilates with the ultimate goal of keeping my body limber, toned, and moving well. As I age, I also came to understand the benefits of Pilates with regard to injury prevention. From the first lesson, Rachel took the time to listen to my perceived strengths and weaknesses, and has tailored each private lesson according to my personal needs. Within weeks, I noticed improvements to my alignment when teaching my own students, as well as feeling more energized and happy throughout my week. Rachel's delicate delivery of knowledge creates a class atmosphere that is encouraging, clear, and enjoyable. Rachel brings her sense of humour and contagious laugh to all her classes, making her an absolute joy to be around! I proudly recommend Rachel Santos, Cadance Jazz & Pilates to anyone looking to bring some movement and joy to their week!

I really want to continue dancing for the rest of my life, because I realized that in the end, it's not the level, or the speed, or the flexibility that matters, but the fun you have and new doors dance opens (all of the above REALLY improved too!) Cadance really delivers it's mission - dance in a friendly and fun atmosphere! Yay!

What does pole dancing mean to me? A new shot at life…read more Let me explain. (CW/TW: The following contains topics related to suicide, mental health and such.) I've been battling with suicidal thoughts and multiple mental illnesses for years. Prior discovering pole, I didn't see any value in life. Every night, I'd cry myself to sleep hoping that I could end my suffering. I was ready to give up. However, my friend made me join a pole class with him. To my surprise, for the first time in a very long time, I felt happy. All the dark thoughts disappeared, and I was mesmerized by my instructor's skills. I fell in love with how pretty and captivating she made all the moves look. After that one class, I told to myself that I wanted to become like my instructor. In a way, that class saved my life. I started taking better care of myself and picking up healthier lifestyle habits in order to be able to become as good as my pole instructors. I'd highly recommend this studio to anyone wanting to try or get into pole dancing! The instructors are very nice and supportive, and the community is very wholesome

I've been taking "Yoga 1" and it's a little difficult, definitely not gentle yoga, but very doable for a motivated beginner and you can alter the pace to your liking. They also play ambient music during the session and there is a short meditation at the end. I have since downgraded the difficulty level to their newest class "yin yang" and it's 75 minutes long and not as intense but still a real good workout. I feel challenged but not pushed to the edge of my limits as with yoga 1. I also sometimes take their restorative yoga class which is long stretches and relaxing. Really good class if you want a gentle practice. They have a solid introduction package which consists of $40 for unlimited Yoga classes for 1 month! They have free tea and water available right next to the reception area and you can rent a yoga mat for $2 if you decide not to bring your own. It's less than a 5 min walk from Lionel Groulx and St. Henri metro stations. If you drive, there is paid street parking in the area.
