It's hard to explain the level of enthusiasm for this class, we suggest that you come in and experience it for yourself!

Another ClassPass session for the win visiting Nova Dance and Wellness. I've mentioned on other…read morereviews that I'm already a member of a local gym in Jacksonville and we train hard! All gas, no brakes! I've been trying different workouts to get more variety and focus on specific areas for toning and building. With all the work put forth, I'm trying to remember to prioritize stretching and resting. I visited Nova for a Stretch Roller class with Tony that was just the fix. We used lacrosse balls, rollers and yoga blocks to stretch and massage pesky areas in the legs and hips that are hard to really reach. What I really loved what the education shared and being able to experience the relief in real time. The class was intimate and everyone was friendly. Tony is super professional and pays very close attention to details with respect to form while stretching so not to injure yourself in the process. He also does sound bowl sessions with Crystal sound bowls that I'd love to experience in the future. It would've been nice to chat with someone about the benefits of joining the family, but at least I was able to save down their membership rates. I hear great things about their dance classes. I'd definitely go back for another stretch roller session. It's basically a massage and a workout. Ha!

They offer a wide…read morerange of classes and a large schedule, which makes it easy for people like me with a changing routine to still get workouts in. Every class I've taken has been both fun and challenging, with options that keep things fresh. My personal favorite is the XFORMER class. I love the dark room, the loud music, and the way it helps me really zone in on the workout. I especially enjoy taking Emma's class, her "tough love" style pushes us in the best way possible and always leaves me feeling stronger. The only area for improvement is at the front desk. On one of my first visits, no one greeted me, and I ended up in the wrong room by accident, which was a little awkward. It would make a huge difference if new clients were given a warmer welcome and a bit more direction. Overall, HiReformance is an amazing studio with killer classes and instructors, and it's become one of my go-to workout spots in Jax.

The lady that checked me in wasn't so pleasant so that's part of my star bump. Didn't really get that welcome feeling with her when I mentioned I was a Nationwide Member. The locker rooms were easy to access and very cooled down. Men's locker rooms had a middle room for lounging. The towels here are super large (instead of the normal sweat towels). There's one enclosed room with weight machines, and then a larger open room with smith machines, dumbbells, bench, incline, pulley machines, treadmills/ellipticals and a cardio training zone. They also have an outdoor covered astroturf cardio zone. There is a large heated pool, basketball court and separate studio rooms for fitness classes. My only gripe is that front desk lady and the limited benches they have. Otherwise, this is a solid gym option!

My next lesson we're going to focus on swing. I like Chris's style of teaching. He shows you the steps, let's you practice but also teaches techniques to help improve style. This part makes you stand out when you go dancing in public. I'm excited to try a group lesson as well and a social event. Chris explained the group lessons help you be more comfortable dancing with multiple partners because everyone's style is different and you have to be ready for anything. Come check out Chris and the other dance instructors at Monarch Ballroom.

They also have three fun social events a month: a dance party, a non-dance activity (e.g. karaoke, indoor rock climbing, or go-karts), and Rueda in the Park (a group dance in Memorial Park). The Director, Ally, has created a warm, friendly atmosphere. I remember once, in my early days at the studio, going out the door after a group lesson when I heard her shout "no one leaves without a hug." I turned around, went back in, and got my hug. Dance Salsa Jax is a nonprofit that rents space at two studios. They teach the most common Latin dances, Salsa (Sunday afternoons in Avondale) and Bachata (Wednesday evenings on Old St. Augustine Rd.). Ally also offers reasonably-priced private lessons. I'm glad I found this place, my home dance studio.
