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!

The studio has a lot of space, even for a series of workshops where ~50 people showed up. Aside from being great teachers and bringing some humor to the classes, Max and Annie were nice enough to occasionally translate the key points to English for me if I couldn't understand the details. Another thing I noticed (culturally?) was that everyone was very comfortable with giving constructive criticism, not something that seems to be so easily flowing in NYC. Great value overall, especially compared to NYC prices. Pick up a water bottle for $5 CAD too while you're there. Side note: Check out the pizza place down the street (just northwest of the Jean-Talon station) too for freshly-made pizza with pepperoni and green peppers.

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.

As a child I wanted to be either a princess or a ballerina. Princess sounded like a lot of hard…read morework so I chose ballerina by default. Sadly, life got in the way of things and "perform Swan Lake" never got crossed off my bucket list. A couple of years back, ballet was the new yoga for a short while and I thought I should get back into the swing of things. I basically ran into a brick wall: no one wants to teach a geriatric teenager ballet! Think of all those stiff joints! So all the adults courses I found were a pale imitation of a ballet class or a mish-mash of ballet-latin dance-reaggaeton. This poor gringa can't do the "heat" of the latin dance, what I wanted was pure, hard ballet! Luckily I found the Academie de Ballet, which is actually in charge of training the future dancers of the Grand Ballets Canadiens. Their classes for adults are pleasantly tough and traditional: warm-ups, barre work, center work, diagonals and arms! Some teachers even prefer a dress code, now that's a great excuse to don those fuschia legwarmers! The price is reasonable and you can choose between 3 levels, between 1-3 times/ week. Classes are mainly taught in French but should the teacher be noticed, you can be given a parenthesis in English, since everything is physical work, you can pretty much rely on observation. I really enjoy that my teachers have always seemed genuinely interested in my progress and have never dismissed me as an adult (read: too old to dance). Plus, the school is attentive to the student's needs and schedules have evolved upon request. If you would like to send your children there, they also function as a full-blown sports-study school and do half-price rates for boys!
