When my daughter were dancing at the suturing my daughter was not aloud to dance at the Ritalin because she was going to be on a school trip for a few weeks and she was going to miss some competitions. We accepted that policy because it was being applied to every body, however the next year it happens again that a student was going to miss some competition for the same reason, and guess what? That student was able to participate in the recital and the competition that she was able to attend. This is not the first situation at that academy, but I definitely, if you want to make your child unhappy take him/her to the academy. I would never recommended it to anybody.

We had the unfortunate experience of enrolling our children in this 'school'. Although the dance…read moreteacher, Ms Lee is obese we decided to give her a chance, after all she's been doing this for many many years. As the classes commenced we found her to be very unprofessional ie: talking about other classes of students saying what 'Dummies' they were. Her words. As for her being able to demonstrate dance moves she was physically unable to. Relying on parents to demonstrate such moves that required going down on the floor and jumping up and back down to the floor. We also had a seeing impaired child enrolled who's mom decided her daughter was not ready to do the Christmas show on stage as Lee stated she would not be there to assist said child. Lee even made a joke in front of several of us about having one child almost fall off every performance saying the girl was ready. Really!!! Lee also wanted to keep our children for three hours back stage during the performances, assuring us she did so every year and would have toys etc. to entertain them. I arrived to find total chaos! No security regarding parents picking up and dropping off children and there were approximately 30 colouring pages, one box of crayons a half pillowcase of mega blocks to entertain over 50 children. Several people we knew walked into the 'secure' area with no questioning etc. anybody could have taken a child! Lee also attempted to physically remove a crying child from my arms. I said absolutely not until her mom comes. Lee actually stated that I was being over protective. It was just one big chaotic mess!!! The result was 6 of us parents withdrew our children which left her with 2 students for Wednesday morning 10 am class. Also note that her Resume' states she's done this or that training with so and so....FACT: she did one day or two day workshops with named people. Using the word trained with is misleading. Very UNsatisfied!!! That's all.

After working my way through 2 years of nasty grief and health problems and other assorted issues (thanks, pandemic), I was determined to turn over a new leaf and begin really taking care of myself. Over the summer, I began walking around my neighbourhood, but I knew I wouldn't be able to keep it up over the winter. This place is so incredibly close that it fit the bill for contintuing my commitment to fitness. The indoor track is now my second home. I do at least a kilometer each time, and I like that they reverse the direction each day so you get a different view. It also overlooks the activity in the gym below, so you can chuckle at the kids doing karate or playing indoor soccer in the wintertime. There's plenty of exercise equipment. The Lifecycles are great because you can watch TV or internet, and power your usage with your movement. There's the studio where they have all the classes (Zumba, cycle, etc), the gym for basketball, volleyball, etc, and the workout room. Last weekend I got brave enough to try the pool. A little chilly when I got in, but the water was actually pretty warm once I was in a while. The day locker rooms are nearly immaculate. I like that there's a wet and dry locker area, with the handy cords for your locker key that you can put around your wrist while you work out. For an additional price, there are enhanced locker rooms with overnight lockers, towel service, etc. Everyone I've met here, staffwise, has been friendly and approachable. Make sure to wipe down the equipment after you use it. One of these days, I'm going to try out the smoothie bar in the lobby. Can't speak to the daycare or children's programs since I don't have kids, but I've seen all kinds of activities for them in the gym since I've been coming. If I was a parent, I'd definitely consider enrolling my kid in some classes or daycare here.

Things such as stretching and and following directions are a bit too advanced for a age 24 month old. At the end of class when they play with balloons etc she does enjoy it but I wish I would've waited another six months or year. They also change the class from 915 to 9 and we did not get the message so we miss part of the first class. But those two things aren't a big deal and so far we are having a fun time. The staff seem friendly enough and the class is pretty well structured. I like how they let both parents come in or there is a waiting room with a window where grandparents or the other parent can just sit and relax and watch your children. ( this class there must always be one parent present in the class) We are halfway done our eight week class and I would say so far so good. It's a nice way to get your children active.

Having been involved with this tae kwon-do school for over half my life, I can say that it's one of the best out there. Unfortunately, I've had to use what I've learned in real life, and I can tell you that it works. Things have changed a great deal since I started when I was... 12? But that's what happens when businesses expand. The instruction I received personally has always been the best. In my opinion, you get what you pay for. The best teachers, the best facilities, and the best programs. I've met people here that I'm going to know for the rest of my life. The people who have been unhappy obviously don't understand the word "contract", or are the type prone to signing things without reading them, and I find that really unfortunate.
