I have explored many shared office places in SF and most say this one is very unique…read more The ambiance is homey and artsy unlike other more sterile and modern co-working spaces. I enjoyed the fact that not everyone is glued to their computer doing programming or startup stuff. They host many different talents from fashion designers and freelancers to non profits organizations. People are friendly and approachable. Some can be a little to chatty and interrupt too often, but a cordial "let's catch later" will usually suffice. Pros: affordable, clean, approachable owner, safe, and a bit eccentric space. Cons: no parking, not super close to Bart (not a pleasant walk to Bart as it doesn't feel super safe), can be a bit loud depending on where your work space is, and does not offer much more than just the working space (no snacks! Haha).

Project Bandaloop is amazing! If I were good enough, and they would have me, I would drop out of…read moregraduate school right now to dance on walls and cliffs with them. Since that is not the case, I had resigned myself to frequent visits to their website UNTIL I found out that they host beginner and int/ adv workshops! Woohoo! Maybe I will be an amazingly talented beginner and they will beg me to travel the world with them and dance on the Petronas Towers, Chartres Cathedral, maybe even at Petra or the Coliseum. Please. Please. Pick me. I'll do anything. ________________________ Update: Since I have now completed both the beginner and int/adv workshops offered by Project Bandaloop, I feel this review needs an update. The workshop is a lot of fun, although pretty hard on the body. I figured that vertical dancing might have its challenges, but I had no idea how much a rock climbing harness and nerve endings could disagree. However, that did not stop me from going 4 days in a row...doubling up on pants and shirts can make a huge difference. The beginner workshop (5 hours over 2 days, $110) features a warm up, and then a rotation through the climbing wall featuring bouldering/dance, dance from single point suspension ("pods"), the trampoline walls, and the wood wall. The advanced workshop (6 hours over 2 days, $150) has an additional floor station and focuses on play and choreography more than orientation and skills. The workshops were between 15-20 people with 5-7 instructors. The instructors were great! Definitely gave the freedom to play, while also providing constructive pointers and maintaining a safe environment. The founder of Bandaloop, Amelia, was also in and out, watching the advanced performances, answering questions, etc. While she did not offer me a position in her dance troupe, I am definitely addicted, and will be going back for more. Maybe one day I can have my own trampoline wall. The one downer: the warehouse in Oakland seems pretty sketch upon first approach,. It isn't well marked, and looks kind of run down. It also can be tough getting in earlier, etc because all the doors are locked. However, the next workshop is in a new location close by in Oakland, so this may change soon.

Expected to watch once and work on it on your own while the instructor makes their own items. Luckily my friends and I did research before the class and had a general idea on how to make a shape.

The floors are painted wood and the ceilings are wood as well, with exposed brick walls. It's about 6 blocks from the Montgomery BART station, and just a few from SFMoMA.
