The woodworking 1 class is a great introduction to all the equipment through the process of building a beautiful step stool. The day and night classes include men and women of all ages. The fees are very reasonable to get access to great equipment. The teachers are knowledgeable and very willing to help. For more info: https://mdae.mdusd.org/

The tools in the wood shop are great, and the instructors really know their stuff. What's more, those guys sure know how to keep a sharp edge on their equipment. Tuition is, in my opinion, up to what one would expect to pay in today's economy, especially considering that everyone is scrambling for cash to stay afloat, even the local government and its affiliated programs. The registration process on the archaic website is a touch on the byzantine side, though. It looks a lot like the very first website I ever coded when I was 16 years old. Uhh, now that I think about it, it looks like the website I designed a few years ago. But I'm no web designer, so hah! Point being, you're gonna have to dig around a little bit to find what you're looking for, but once you've found it, the actual act of registering for a class is pretty straightforward. Now, back to the woodworking instructors: Between the Bill and Dave, they've got about 70 years experience, 20 fingers, 20 toes, and 8 eyes (they both wear glasses). So I trust them to teach me the ways. I don't know if I'll ever be able to snatch the pebble from their hands, but I'm confident that they're showing me how to keep all my phalanges and body parts so that I could snatch that pebble, even if only in theory. I plan on taking many more courses here, especially in the "Working with Wood" category of classes. Now go forth and learn something new!

The location is great, and the ambiance is special.

    Erin Wallace, the owner of Transformational Healing Center, is a light and an inspiration!…read more My journey with her began with a curiosity about DNA Activation. I am always enjoying, exploring and experiencing different healing modalities, and my Activation with Erin made me feel great, which was awesome. However, I have referred friends & family to her who have experienced their DNA activations as profound and life-altering experiences, enabling them to break through many of their obstacles in one go. While I loved it and definitely felt clearer & better, the DNA activation did not totally transform my life, however, it did feel wonderful and propelled me forward into deeper healing. Since that initial experience with Erin, I have received so many different and powerful modalities from her - ancient Mystery School techniques & healings - and they have all been deeply empowering and transformative. For those wanting a healing path without process work (though I also practice & love process work!) where you can just relax and allow yourself to gently glide back into who-you-truly-are, I whole-heartedly recommend: Isis Healing King Solomon Healing Modality Etheric Surgery For those wanting to move deeper into the exploration of their spiritual selves, her Mystery School classes are amazing and she is a loving and generous teacher and guide! Her classes have enriched my life in ways I cannot even begin to describe. My work with Erin has been a true gift.

I thought that this was just a public speaking club when I finally joined 2 years ago! Little did I know that I would gain the courage to stand up and speak in front of my peers, thanks to the supportive environment in this club, as well as learn how to think quickly on my feet, and become a better leader. This particular club was a great starting point for me, as the people are friendly and nice, the membership base is a younger demographic than other Toastmasters Clubs in the area, and there is no pressure to speak if you do not want to get up in front of a small audience just yet. An added bonus is that I have made friends in the club, as well as recruited my friends outside of the club to join in the fun. Yes, it's FUN to give prepared and impromptu speeches, to give evaluations of other people's speeches, and to become a club officer to collaborate with fellow club members. The new location at The Kensington is stellar! It's no wonder that two other Toastmasters Clubs also meet here. It's clean, well-lit, has lots of seating and tables, a good speaking space, and its own side entrance. I highly recommend Toastmasters as an organization, and this club specifically. Don't wait to gain confidence! If you want to impress hiring managers at job interviews, learn how to respond quickly to questions out-of-the blue, learn how to give presentations at work, or just want to network and socialize while learning new skills, check out Toastmasters!

    I have been a part of the Toastmasters community for the last 5 years and it has truly been an…read moreincredible ride. The fact that we have the opportunity to not only improve our communication skills, but also enhance our leadership capabilities makes for a valuable experience. The Walnut Creek Toastmasters club has been around for 10 years, and you can tell by the veteran members who have been with the club since its inception that it will be around for 10 more. These members are the ones who's passion inspires you to improve your communication and leadership skills to eventually meet their level. I agree that this club still has room to grow, but I feel confident in its future and I see a lot of new members coming in with a lot of enthusiasm to improve. I can't wait to see how this year pans out and I am excited for the future of this club! :)

    Diana came over and provided one on one serger lesson for me. She was really patient and showed me…read morethe very basics of getting going with my serger - how to thread, some interesting tools and tricks specific to my machine - things I need to know to even begin to play around with this complicated AF machine. Full confession: this is a second review, the first one was immediately after taking a class and I was extremely disappointed - I felt like the class wasn't organized or efficient with time and I left not knowing anything more than when I started. But Diana reached out to me directly and came to my house and provided 1.5hr personal lesson, which I tremendously appreciated. After talking with her, it sounds like that class was really challenging for many reasons and I respect that there are situations out of your control, like the class dynamic and when people show up with weird machines you're not familiar with. I greatly appreciated her reaching out to me - I'm so used to getting burnt by things like that, that it didn't even occur to me to reach out about the negative experience! At the end of the day, all I wanted was to be able to load the d*mn machine and to serge a corner. That being said, I realized that moving forward, spending the extra $$ for a one on one might be a better choice for me in the future - with a baby, a full-time job and often very specific needs/questions re: sewing/serging, this hour+ together was way more helpful and manageable than a class. Ultimately, I found Diana to be very approachable, easy to work with, and very patient.

    Took the 3 hour Intro to the Machine class and it was awesome. I was nervous & knew basically…read morenothing about seeing. Diana was so patient, warm & her teaching style is very accessible.

It…read morehas been a minute I remember the class and the first time behind the wheel with someone other than my parents. It was a great experience. It has made me a confident driver my entire driving life. I have definitely driven over a million miles and would trust Safestway with my grandchildren. There are always reviews only giving 4 stars, as they believe nobody deserves 5, then the ones who are never happy. They get 5 stars from me, even if it has been nearly 50 years. Mike G.

    Lisa was terrible. She is not professional at all. My daughter came home sobbing from frustration…read moreand not being heard. My daughter had told Lisa she wanted to go back to practice in our neighborhood because they were around a school area and school was about to get out.Lisa then rolled her eyes and went, "Oh my god." She claimed that my daughter needed to learn this anyways (which is true), but my daughter felt uncomfortable because she's new to driving. Lisa kept trying to push her to drive in the area, but my daughter had told her that she wasn't listening/understanding that she was uncomfortable, and Lisa then claimed that my daughter wasn't listening to her. My daughter even pointed out that Lisa had said her turns aren't great, so why should she be driving in a school area with students getting out if she's not ready? Lisa then called her manager and told her that my daughter wanted to end her session early and wasn't listening to her and was "shutting down on her." At first, my daughter didn't even want to end her lesson early; she just wanted to continue practicing in our neighborhood. But after that, she didn't want to deal with Lisa's behavior. Even during the session before Lisa's tantrum, my daughter claimed that Lisa was belittling the way she drives. Lisa said my daughter was shaking the whole car and wobbling and even told my daughter to go into the passenger seat so she could demonstrate and extremely then she proceeded to exaggerate how she was driving. Like I stated before, my daughter is new to driving; she's not going to be perfect; that's the whole point of having a driving instructor. I talked to the owner, and he said that maybe the conflict happened because she's going to graduate soon? Unbelievable. Had absolutely nothing to do with the lesson. He immediately took Lisa's side and didn't try to consider my daughter's feelings; he just made something up. Also, there's a review from someone claiming that Lisa was being racist, yet she's still with this company? We are people of color, so maybe that has something to do with this behavior of hers. This company is extremely unprofessional, and I would not recommend it to anyone. However, if you do stick with this company, I would recommend Andy. My daughter had her first session with him. Very sweet, has patience (unlike someone), and is understanding.
