We found Ariel's mommy and me dance class and immediately knew it was something I wanted to try…read morewith my 18 month old- when I called to sign up I was able to also receive a free trial class to see if it was a fit for us. We have been attending dance class for a year now and it's been amazing to see the growth in my daughter's personality, I largely thank dance for her following directions, trying new things, somersaults, and learning to clean up! It took some time in the beginning maybe a month or two for her to want to jump in so don't give up right away especially if your babe is younger. There's class during the summer still and lot's of fun themed classes, dress up days and songs. I love supporting this dance studio in particular because Miss Ariel is an big advocate in giving back to the community. We had our first recital and we also got to perform the dance at a local nursing home for the folks there. She offers all types of dance classes including adaptive and since we all performed at the recital we got to meet all of these awesome special needs adults (who are excellent actors, singers and dancers!) and who are so often forgot about in extracurricular activities.

My son has been going here for years now and he absolutely loves Dance with Mrs. Ariel ! He loves…read morethe adaptive class that lets him try new things and be himself. So much fun !

The dad/daughter dances are also extremely well done...a must if you are a dad with a little girl...takes some commitment but a memory neither of you will forget.

It's the only dance studio in the area that offers quality adult and kids dance classes AND socials and events to be able to put to practice your skills.

If you're looking for something new, returning to dance or looking for community, Vedanza is the place to find it.

I used to hate working out. I was never someone who enjoyed going to the gym, and I had never…read moreseriously picked up a sport until I was 24, so I never thought fitness would become such an important part of my routine. Joining this community completely changed the way I see fitness. Being surrounded by such strong, inspiring women motivated me to show up, wake up early, and actually feel excited to try. One of my favorite things is the variety of classes. There really is something for everyone, from Latin Sculpt to Barre to Bounce to Mat Pilates and Yoga Strong. Every day I can switch it up depending on how I'm feeling, and that honestly makes me even more excited to go. I've now completed almost 400 classes, and I'm so proud of how far I've come. I feel stronger, healthier, and more confident, and I've also met some truly amazing people along the way. What I love most is that this became more than just a workout class, it became a moment in my day where I could take care of myself and genuinely feel happy while moving my body. I'm moving away this summer, and leaving is bittersweet because this place has meant so much to me. I can honestly say it's so much more than a fitness center, it's a real community. If you're in the area and thinking about trying it, I really recommend giving it a shot. Even if you're someone like me who never thought they'd enjoy working out, you might be surprised by how much you end up looking forward to it.

Bounce was so fun! Basically a trampoline cardio class. Emma is a superb instructor. I wish they…read moreoffered Bounce more often, but it's only available on select days. The other offerings are mostly Barre and mat Pilates. Jennifer in front was so welcoming on my first class. The members here are also super kind and friendly.

I have only taken open pole so far, though I've been doing so pretty regularly, and there have been a couple of instances of start time being later than scheduled, but not by much... and they always let you stay a little later when that happens. It's not usually a problem for me, since I tend to get there a few minutes late sometimes anyway. So just be aware that if you're a stickler for things starting on time, that may not always happen here. There have been a couple of instances of last-minute canceling of class, which was disappointing for me. They are good about texting you and letting you know, though I do wish they wouldn't cancel so close to the class starting time. If they absolutely have to cancel class, I would appreciate a few hours notice at least. For some reason, for the last two days I've had trouble navigating the website and the app... neither would allow me to sign in to a class. I've never had this problem before, so I'm not quite sure what's wrong yet. Both Oceanside and Encinitas are nice beach towns, too. So that's definitely a plus.

I am a 48 yr old big girl and felt super welcomed and never did I feel like I did not belong there. So far I have had 2 instructors Heather & Rebecca. Both were amazing instructors.

My daughter joined their competition crew with zero dance experience other than a 3-day camp elsewhere that taught jazz, ballet, hip hop. She loved hip hop so much that I scoured the internet for a place that could ONLY offer hip hop. It's a crazy added bonus that she is obsessed with k-pop and this studio also teaches that genre!! The level of commitment for the crew is akin to a professional dancer, however, this is preparing my daughter for a professional career in the industry so she will be ready for anything if that day comes!!

I have also taken a pilates class she teaches and it is amazing (mind you i am struggling in the corner just to straighten my legs and she is twisted into so weird bendy shape I will never manage!) As an instructor she is vibrant and bubbly and (a biggie for me) not intimidating. My mother in law and I go together and there is lots of other women (and a few fellas!) that have been singing up (through the city of Escondido) session after session. We are loyal to our Angie!!! I highly recommend her to anyone as a Zumba/Bokwa/pilates/whatever-other-class instructor and also as a personal trainer!
