We had a kitchen all to ourselves and the teacher's undivided attention at 5pm on a weeknight. . We started off by whisking an egg into a cup of flour. After much kneading, we each had our homemade pasta dough balls which we let rest. Then, we got started on the pasta sauce. We made both a white and red sauce. In between, we had sips of the rose we brought because they're BYOB! Once we got the sauce going, we rolled out our pasta and cut them into strips of fettuccine using a couple of pasta makers. Finally, we chopped up some fresh garlic for garlic bread. I've forgotten her name, but the teacher was very friendly and knowledgeable. She even taught us a cool trick to turn parmesan rinds into delicate crisps. We wrapped up the session by digging into our pasta dishes and snapping some photos to capture the moment! I can't wait to make my own pasta at home.

First off, I want to high five the amazing team who worked so well and patiently with the kids as they took turns and worked together to make the very fun recipes in store for the class. Secondly, I was so impressed with how organized it was and how there was an age-appropriate job for each of the kids who attended. Parent were able to help, but most of us were taking pictures of our kids cooking because how often do we see that?? The space was so clean and well put together, and the energy was just as fun as the process. We cannot wait to go back for another cooking class with friends!

The older kids program looks great and I especially like the bell located in the middle of the gym that the gymnast gets to ring when they master a skill for the first time. Great motivation! I am particularly impressed with the Tiny Tots classes. That program is outstanding! I have a very shy and timid little girl that easily becomes clingy, but somehow Coach Ethan got her to join the class. She happily joins his classes, but I was interested to see what would happen on that one day he was not there. Other coaches quickly stepped up with encouragement and she joined her class. After the initial warmup to music the class divides into two groups and each goes to a different station or the trampolines before switching. Each station just looks like fun activities to the kids, but each 'fun' activity is designed to teach a very specific skill. Each 'fun' activity is first demonstrated by the coach, but big picture cues beside each piece of equipment also instructs. When the coach observes a child skipping a skill or not completing it correctly, they will assist or give extra instruction. I notice that the assistance is as minimal as needed since the goal is for them to achieve independence. The station's setup changes each week. After a class, the coaches often chat with a parent about a skill that was mastered or improved by their child. I have seen improvement in core strength, balance, stretching and confidence, to name a few.

Even after all this time, my son who is a teenager now, remembers this event. At the time he…read morecouldn't explain very well what happened as he had a language disorder. Now he can explain exactly what happened. Ms. Sharla was furious that he and another boy were playing when they were supposed to be quiet. She picked him up, shoved him forward with great force against some cabinets, catching his back on the counter top above the cabinets. At the time and to this day, I can't believe the deceit. At first she said nothing happened. Then she said she assisted him to time out. Then she said he fell off a table. I still have the pictures of the bruise on his back. It was a heartbreaking event. From reading other reviews, it doesn't sound like much has changed.

I wanted to cross hitting a baseball off my bucket list. The price on the internet was $ 55.00 dollars for a session. I thought that was fair because I wanted to accomplish this even if I'm a senior. Jason was wonderful to me. My only and biggest complaint is the pricing. I was fully prepared to pay the $ 55 for the half hour when I booked the online appointment. When I arrived today, I was told it was $60.00. Not a big difference but you should have honored the price on the web site. I told the young man about the pricing difference but my complaints fell on deaf ears. I feel this is wrong and cheated. I would give Jason a 5 star rating but your customer service one star. Update 3/31/24. D Bat has done the right thing and refunded the 5 dollars to my credit card

The ganache we made for the center of our macarons was very tasty! Unfortunately, the ovens were not working properly, so our macarons for our whole group of 11 people were all either under or over cooked. Mine were extremely overcooked. They were very hard and chewy. For $79 this is unacceptable. They could have offered us a replacement class or a pickup order of new fresh macaroons, but we were simply told "sorry, it happens sometimes". Everyone else has such great reviews and photos on Yelp, so I'm really sad I did not get that same experience.
