My daughter and I recently took dance lessons at the Ballroom Center to prepare for our…read moreFather-Daughter dance at my daughter's wedding. We wanted to do something a little different than the ordinary, that involved a combination of slow and fast dances (e.g., a mashup). We worked with Dasha and she was both brilliant and amazing. She choreographed the whole dance with us, all the while taking into account my very limited dance skills. She made the entire process fun and memorable for my daughter and me. And she helped put together an epic dance that my daughter and I will never forget. The wedding is now 2 weeks past and we (and others) are still talking about it. Thank you Dasha and the entire staff at Ballroom Center for helping us, and for providing such a supportive and encouraging environment. We can't begin to tell you how much we appreciate it. ~Ed

She was able to try a class full of girls her age. We got a tour of the studios and examined the awesome (she said that) outfits that were hanging. The hip hop teacher was cool enough to make her feel swaggy (also not my word) but nice and supportive. As a mom, I loved the 'no pressure' feel of the trial and was able to discuss prices at my leisure. She even worked out a payment plan so I wasn't hammered with fees and costumes and tuitions all at once. My eternal dancer leapt into the car and exclaimed that she wanted to go here and it was perfect. I don't know about perfect but making her feel that way is perfect to me! ~Dance Mom 4 Life~

My husband and I bought the 10 wedding dance class package with Anna and was not a great…read moreexperience. My husband works outside and gets sick quite frequently during the winter months. Our wedding was to be in the summer and were actively taking our dance lessons during the winter months. My husband had gotten sick a couple of times and we cancelled early the day of, but sometimes it does not come on right away and you don't feel up to dancing for an hour. We only cancelled twice. We took about 5 or 6 of our classes only because our last session number 5 or 6, we felt extremely uncomfortable with her. She got very upset at us saying that we didn't practice, which we did, and saying we weren't trying or listening, in which we were giving it everything we could. After her cold demeanor and nasty comments from that class, we chose to not continue any of the remaining lessons. We were there to learn and not to get yelled at. We are willing participants and deserved a little bit more compassion and kindness especially for how much we paid! She did not offer to give us any money back either for our remaining dance lessons that we did not use. Terrible experience and would not recommend! This was supposed to be an exciting thing to do for the most special day of our lives and turned out to be one of the worst experiences we ever had.

I had been wanting to try a Barre class for some time, but due to being extremely intimidated by…read morethe stock photos of the extremely fit women in generic Barre classes, I always found an excuse not to go. After staring at my veggie food baby that had been growing over the winter, I finally decided that it was time to take a chance and face my fears. I scoped out Yelp and came across Orinoco. They have the best introductory prices in the area (first class) and I could actually afford their single class fees ($16/class) and multiple class packages without having to sell a kidney ($78/6 Barre classes). They have a variety of classes from yoga and mat Pilates, to Tai Chi, to my new favorite, barre. I also love that the class times actually work with my schedule, as most gyms only seem to have schedules that fit a stay-at-home mom's (or dad's) or student's daily schedule. I dragged one of my friends to my first 10:05 Saturday morning Barre class (because who wants to be scared and tortured alone?!) Ana, the owner, greeted us as soon as we entered the doors and was very friendly and personable (she even remembered me the next Saturday when I brought my sister in with me). She went through their schedule, pricing, and special events that were coming up, but didn't pressure either of us to signup for anything which is UNHEARD of anymore. Maria is an amazing instructor and teaches the Saturday morning classes I have been attending. She truly pushes you to do your best, but makes sure you do not over-exert yourself at the same time. She's constantly adjusting posture and techniques of each individual student so that you truly get the most out of your workout. And let me add that this is probably one of the cleanest gyms/studios I have been to in the surrounding area! Love it! I'm so glad that I found this place and cannot wait to start adding more classes to my workout schedule! I highly recommend Orinoco for anyone who is looking for a new gym that features group classes.
