I'll preface this by saying my little girl really enjoyed her experience with Dance Express. I,…read morehowever, did not. She took hip hop / tumble. The classes were structured so she spent more time sitting on the floor than engaged in activity. I felt it was a lazy way to conduct the classes. Then there was the costume fiasco. Measurements were wrong, sizes didn't fit. I had to beg the company to get the costumes right. After being lied to repeatedly, they finally reordered the correct sizes from another company. The recital was darling, but I cannot recommend this dance studio.

My daughter and I LOVE Dance Express. This is her second year there and she wants to continue on…read moreuntil she graduates. She is currently in the hip hop competition team. The other Moms are amazing and the staff is just over the top wonderful. She is young...only in kindergarten. And she gets pushed to do her best. And I think it's great at even this age to be pushed to reach your full potential. But you can also tell it's coming from a place of love, not just "being mean' as some would say. This is competition...you go to these to WIN and have fun but the goal is to win lol. The owner/director of the dance school has been super understanding about how much my child has been sick this year too. It's been quite worrisome as a Mom to see her so sick, but all the teachers st this studio have been really sweet and you can tell they have been really concerned. Recommend 10/10. They are becoming family and after this season is finished my girl is already excited about next year lol! Love you so much DEPAC.

Scooters is a nice skating rink and has been here forever. The employees are really great and…read morehelpful and they have very unique items that I have never saw at other skating rinks. Other than the skates and rollerblades, you can use scooters, sit down seat cars, and they have training walkers to help you skate. What I don't like about it is the bathroom situation. There are no mirrors and the sinks are outside of the bathroom. The bathrooms are also falling apart. They really need a remodel of the set up here including getting different tables than all booths. It is a great place for a birthday party, though or if you just want to go for a night out skating.

I visited Wilmington to host a Birthday Skate Party for my twin niece, Jakira and nephew, Jamarion…read more The service was excellent. The staff were all super friendly and helpful. I would strongly suggest this facility for all of your skating events rather big or small. Kudos! Keep up the great work.

Dancing with Davis literally changed my life, not only did he introduce me to dance, he gave me…read moreaccess to a community and language that I never anticipated when I went to my first class. He does it all, and I'm so lucky to be a student of his. If you want to connect with a loved one, with new friends, etc, this is the way. And Davis will have you looking and feeling fabulous, without feeling like you have to choose between dance and paying rent. Endlessly grateful. Hope everyone gets a chance to dance like that.

Incredible! Davis & Emily are SO skilled at teaching! They both have such an amazing background of…read moreALL kinds of dance.....but the way they teach is just beyond amazing. I just can't say enough about the whole experience! They also have a GREAT in- home studio (private and perfect place to learn with plenty of space!). They worked with both my husband and I, and within each 1-hour lesson gave us both what we needed to grow as dancers. I had a lot of dance background in Latin, WCS & Country; but over the years accumulated LOTS of bad habits. They helped me return to strong basics & improved my balance, ability to follow (connection) AND gave me advanced tips on ladies variations/shaping/footwork/styling. They spent time with my hubs (learning to dance for me (US!) bless his heart!). They helped him with learning WCS, plus other dances so we had variety depending on music. They kept things simple & SUPER EASY to understand for a beginning dancer. Including help with musical timing & understanding more than 'just the steps'. They focus on timing but also specifics of being a good LEADER - building his ability to (in the future) learn any dance and lead 'anyone' with amazing stability AND grace! Couples dancing is ALL about the connection & they really know how to communicate this for lead + follow. They do choreography as well, if you're wanting a wedding/special event dance.

We attended a Valentine's Day Party here recently. Signed up online, paid the $6 when we arrived…read more Easy peasy. We walked in and this place is mainly geared towards babies. All of the toys inside were just plastic little tikes crap. They had a few crafts, and a couple different rooms but I felt this was too baby ish for my 3 year old. Cute little playground outside with some shade but I don't think this place should be up to age 5, maybe 3 at the most. The employees were all very nice.

I love how they add seasonal activities so my kids aren't always doing the exact same thing every time they come. We live on the opposite side of town, but it's worth the trip.

This is a neat place to visit. It's a wine bar but it's also a yoga studio…read more I loved the atmosphere of the place with the tables and chairs in a sitting area; and the variety of wines on display. And I enjoyed the music in the background. Outside there are a bunch of tables where you can enjoy wine, food, and entertainment. Unwined has events with food trucks and live music. They even have trivia night (Tuesdays). There were several wines by the glass to choose from, so I tried a Chardonnay, as I was told it didn't have a heavy oaky flavor. I really liked it!! And it was a nice pour for $7. Four of us enjoyed our wine before going out to dinner. This is definitely a place I'll return to. I may even join the wine club!

On top of their regular yoga schedule, there are specialty classes each month!
