Drop in splatter painting was fun for my toddler. He enjoyed getting paint everywhere…read more girls at the front were nice

I would never bring my kid here again…read more I bought a 1 hr drop in session through livingsocial and I thought it would be fun for my 4-year-old. Since it was advertised as a class, I imagined there would be activities or enough supervision to satisfy a child for one hour. NOOOOOOO... they basically gave us one piece of paper and paint, then go ahead, do your thing kid. No instructions, no activities, no prompts. For extra paper or canvas you have to pay extra. That didn't make sense to me. If you were to advertise it as a one hour class, then it's a one hour class. Enough activities to fill up an hour. If it is an art session for one painting, then it's a session with supplies included for ONE painting. That wasn't the worst thing though. We came back earlier than the one hour mark to check up on my girl. We found her wandering around the foyer area with absolutely no supervision. It was a completely open area from the back to the front so any child can just wander off, or worse, any person can walk in and just grab a child. Their staff should have done something to keep her inside. Scrap paper, crayons, play dough, ANYTHING. And for that matter, even if they couldn't handle her, ISN'T THAT WHY WE LEFT THEM TWO CELL PHONE NUMBERS?!?!! When we picked her up, no one noticed, no one acknowledged us. If I were a kidnapper, Kidoodles is the place to go. That was completely unacceptable and the staff were completely irresponsible. NEVER again.

My daughter has been taking music lessons here for 4 years and it's been consistently of high…read morequality. It's been great to see the improvement over the years. The instructors and the staff are all very professional and experienced. Our daughter's teacher is a good fit. The class structure is very rigid. Do not expect any credits if you need to skip a week. On the flip side, the instructors are allowed to cancel with short notice for their own personal reasons. Our daughter's teacher has musical commitments a few times each year and this she misses out on lessons 4 or 5 times a year. The actual spaces can be hit and miss. Our daughter is in a small room in the basement, with very poor acoustic control, immediately adjacent the early learning room where very young kids clang and bang loudly on instruments including pianos and other loud instruments. Not very condusive to a quality private lesson environment for our child. In general we are happy.

Place des Arts is wonderful! They have courses for children as well as adults in everything from…read moremusic, dancing, drama, visual arts and more. I have taken three courses here (two spinning classes and a weaving class, as well as a short felting workshop) and have loved them all. The instructors are so knowledgeable and experienced that even in a beginner class you come out of it feeling like you can take on any project. If you are interested in the arts, this place will surely have something for you. And one of the best things about them, other than how incredibly affordable the classes are, is that they offer most of their programs in the evenings as well as during the day so those who work or go to school can still go.

In a fun, positive, and relaxed learning environment, students have the opportunity to gain experience through an array of hands on projects. France is an extremely knowledgeable teacher who works very closely with her students. The small class sizes allow for plenty of one on one time. I highly recommend France's Sewing School to those looking for strong sewing experience and a chance to explore personal creativity. Suitable for both younger and mature students, France's Sewing School is a great choice for those seeking sewing expertise.

The sewing machines are easy to use, and students have the freedom to choose their own project based on their level of experience. Truly a great way to learn how to sew or knit.

$11/pp for a few oppourtunities to feel the effect of gravity on ur body?…read moreIn my opinion is a wee bit pricey. If they were guided lessons maybe but I will say my kid loved it,but as I am not certified in gymnastics I lack the knowledge to truly benefit from these gymnastic beams,rings and ramps and such so in my opinion, a trained guide for correct and safe use should be included in the lofty $11 fee. Js. I will say that my white socks were absolutely clean after our session so this tells me that they diligently clean all surfaces thoroughly.Even the lobby floors were squeaky clean.

I tried to cancel a single class for my two kids three months in advance. I was told it would be a $25 fee for each. The class cost $42! I said fine, if there's a one time, then fee cancel all my classes (over$500). Suddenly their policy changed to be a 20% admin cancellation fee. So if you sign up for a class here be sure you don't need to cancel and don't leave your kid here alone.

She even shipped my pieces to me as I'm not from the area. They arrived sooner than expected. She estimated a few weeks. I had them within a week.

I went here for the one day belaying lesson at the climbing gym. I picked this place as they offer…read morelessons at more affordable price (65 CAD) compared to the the other competitor within Greater Vancouver area. Climbing shoes, harness, and grigri rental is included in the lesson price. The instruction given was clear, and helpful. They also tested me by purposely doing things wrong (grigri on the wrong side, the rope is too long, etc), and asked me to verify that everything is good to go. I got the chance to belay the other lesson taker, and the instructor would pointed out what habit I need to fix. After the lesson, I got a piece of paper to review what I learned today. I also got a bit of free time to climb on my own. 7 days trial is included in lesson so that you can climb and practice more. The oval climbing gym offers bouldering (small section), lead, and speed climbing. Pretty solid climbing gym in my opinion!

Their kensington charles tupper soccer summer class was such a waste of time and money. I regret…read moreeven tagging my son's cousin along to this madness. Firstly, this certain location decides to cancel the first soccer class because of FIFA and we're supposed to be okay with that. Secondly, make sure that your child never gets sick when signing up for this class as they DO NOT do make up classes for it. You need a prescription/doctor's appointment which is ridiculous since kids can get sick anytime without needing those two required documentation. Thirdly, i feel like the program itself doesnt teach the kids properly anyway so why bother. I will never ever do this program ever again even if you have to pay me, save your time and money, steer away!! I cant wait for this program to be over, we dont even show up for most of the classes now. What a waste!
