I started taking lessons from Candy back in January. I wanted to try something new, so I decided…read moreto take some Latin dance classes and see how I liked it. And I have loved it since then! Candy and her entire staff are friendly and welcoming. They all love what they are doing, and share their passion for dance with their students. They have found that balance between learning how to dance and making the entire experience fun and enjoyable. As an instructor, Candy is awesome. She has introduced me to several different styles of dance, and is always encouraging me to try different techniques and styles, from cha cha to salsa to jive. I was a little hesitant at first about taking lessons, but Candy's style of teaching makes every lesson entertaining! In addition to her private lessons, I have also attended her cardio Latin fusion class. It is a great class, with options for more or less intense exercises. I always leave class tired, but I wfeel invigorated for the rest of the week! Whether you are just a beginning dancer like me or an experienced dancer looking to build yourself, Candy's is a great choice!

Studio Poise is truly the best of the best. I started coming here in the fall of 2014, shortly…read moreafter graduating college and moving home. I found out that trying to fit work outs into my full time work out schedule was not an easy thing to do. I didn't have the motivation to go to the gym after work, so I bought a groupon for studio poise and signed up for some classes (if I didn't go, I would just be wasting my own money). Two and a half years later, I'm an unlimited member, attending multiple classes a week (sometimes even multiple in one day). Here is why I love this place SO much: 1. The people: Danielle, the owner, and all her instructors are amazing. Not only do they give a killer workout, they care genuinely about all of the clients coming through the door. After attending only a few classes, they will know you by name. Not only are the instructors amazing, the other women that attend SP are amazing as well. My sister also attends a lot of classes with me, and we have made so many friends (of all ages) here. 2. The classes: First of all, there are SO many different classes, which I love. There is truly something for everyone - from mat classes, to barre, to kickboxing, zumba, and HIIT classes (with new classes being created an added), you'll never get bored. I take a different class every day. Each class is difficult in its own way, and you'll definitely feel like you've got your butt kicked (in a good way). The instructors always offer modifications throughout the class so hat you can adapt to your own fitness level. 3. The price point: When I was first looking around at studios, I couldn't find a better deal than Studio Poise. They the least expensive studio in the area, and you get SO much for your money. The unlimited membership is $150 per month (but you'll get $10 off if you attend 15 classes a month), and you can attend as many classes a month as you want. So if you're attending upwards of 30 classes a month (which is usually how many classes women with this membership take), that's only $5 per class. It's truly a steal. Studio Poise is my happy place, and you should definitely try it out if you live on the north shore!

You get an awesome workout, regardless of your current fitness level! This is my happy place!!read more

Now as it transitions from Mass Motion Dance North to Bosoma School of Dance, and is changing locations to Hamilton, which is not so close, I am more than happy to bring my daughter to the new location. I would follow Katherine almost anywhere. She creates a warm and nurturing atmosphere for the dancers, and the technique and choreography is unlike any we have seen at any other studio. If you have the opportunity, bring your kids in for a trial lesson, you won't be disappointed.
