I responded (email) quickly to the quote with a couple questions. Again no response, so I called and left two voicemails on back-to-back weekdays during business hours. I never heard back. Even if I'd wanted to accept the quote and book the rentals, I don't know how I would have given their lack of response. Extremely frustrating communication, I would not try them again.

I work in a service profession and interact with people daily. Encouraging people is a significant…read moreportion of my job. I have also worked in customer service jobs as well. I understand that people have their good days and their bad days, so it takes A LOT to get me to the point that I would write a negative review, and I do NOT do so lightly. My perception of my experience as a bride doing business with this company has led me to feel WORTHLESS as a customer. It is far less demanding to list the positives of my experience with Queen Bee than it is to list the things that caused me STRESS and DIFFICULTIES during my interaction with them- ON my wedding day, DURING my honeymoon, and AFTER I returned home. It has been absolutely AGONIZING, to say the least. As for the positive, all I can say is that their automatic payment system and automated emails letting you know of your upcoming payment and thanking you for your payment is convenient (for all involved).

Despite his admirable and well-intentioned outlook, I couldn't wait to dance, swing, and work my way around that pole! I originally learned about Vertical Tease Durham on Groupon, my curiosity roused I went to their website and decided to try the Intro to Pole but with the Pay as you go Rate for $10 a session in the 11AM Saturday morning slot. I don't know how strippers do it - working that pole is hard work, and not to mention super fun! Clad in yoga pants, my friend and I giggled like two mischievous school girls, I think there was even a "weeee" squeal after our first Firemans swing. Besides being a ton of fun, this pole dancing class was a pretty good workout as told by my sore delts, lats, and obliques the next day. I can't wait to work that pole again! I'm going to rent out the studio for a private party for one of my girlfriends birthday! Weeeee! Sorry Chris Rock. PS - Vertical Tease is a little hard to find, GPS took us over by Chapel Hill so we ended up calling and getting directions from the receptionist. There's a service road and it's upstairs.

Having now been to two classes, I can say that pole dancing is definitely their forte. Kendra, the manager (and possibly owner), is fun and enthusiastic. Her constant encouragement was helpful for newbies like myself. "It doesn't matter how hard you fall as long as you get up sexy," may be my new motto. The instruction was great, and the workout was pretty good too (although I may be investing in kneepads). Five dollar Fridays rotate the style of lesson, giving you a chance to try some new things without spending a lot of money. After such a great lesson with Kendra, however, I was disappointed by the belly dancing class I took. The instructor seemed inexperienced, saying things like, "do the... what's it called..." and "let me see if I remember the next step." I've had better workouts practicing on my own, and since I didn't get a lot of feedback from the instructor on my technique, I'm inclined to keep it that way. Over all, I encourage everyone to check out the pole dancing classes, but if you're interested in another style of work out, maybe look somewhere else. PS. Give yourself plenty of time to get there; it's hard to find (on a frontage road to 15-501 and over Pomegranate Kitchen).

Eleatta provided an atmosphere free from the need to be perfect which enabled artistic expression. One of my friends wanted to be more detail oriented and Eleatta provided one-on-one tips to her, while another friend wanted to be more expressive and abstract, which Eleatta also encouraged. The night was such a joy-- my friends and I were able to talk and also had a place set up with a great atmosphere to enjoy and relax right away. Thank you, Eleatta!

I joined a party with about 12 people total; Eleatta had the canvasses and paints all set up (with some wine and sweets, too!); she took a painting she had already created and broke it down into manageable steps. She gave plenty of leeway for adding our own style and expression while providing the solid basis to producing a masterpiece by night's end. Tons of fun. Highly recommended :)
