By no means am I a dancer. I took a beginner's dance class in high school (over 5 years ago) and it…read morewas more like gym class, where as long as you show up you automatically get a good grade. I went to one of the classes in September of 2016 and I'm not going to lie, I got really lazy and haven't gone back until recently. I honestly think that whether you are a college student, a parent, someone who has danced when they were a kid or never danced before, the classes are always fun to go to. It's fun to go with friends, but I go and I don't know anyone and I don't feel like I'm alone. I am a horrible dancer, and half the time, I'm on the opposite leg, wrong beat or I look completely lost and I never have felt embarrassed. Even one of the classes, it felt like everyone knew the choreography, except me, but I just smiled and danced a beat behind and no one seemed to mind! :) I attempted to do a split (I cannot do it to save my life) but the instructor (Arica) just gave me a thumbs up and smile, which is a great feeling knowing I'm not being judged negatively or feeling pressure to do it correctly right away. Below are the reviews of the classes I've taken so far. Hip Hop for Beginners (Madison) - So, I THOUGHT about taking intermediate. I've grown up listening to hip hop, so I was thinking, "I can probably do the intermediate moves" but in Sept 2016 the intermediate class just didn't fit in my schedule so I took the beginner's class. I originally thought I wouldn't get a great workout, because the moves may be some small or not as intense as I would of thought the intermediate class would be. I was wrong! I felt my body sore the next day. Madison, is not only a wonderful instructor, she was energetic and time just flew by. I like that the choreography had hard moves, smooth moves, and just a variety of styles. I took her class for a few weeks, even bought the 6 class card (which never expire). I had a great time and really liked it! Madison teaches a different class where the dancers wear heels and it looks like so much fun, I do plan to attend a class soon. A few of the hip hop for beginner classes that I took, Madison wasn't the instructor. So I got to work with different instructors, which honestly was great! The dances were all different, and fun. They also talked about the classes they taught, and showed some of their moves which I was in absolute "awe" in. There was an instructor that specializes in robotics, he was awesome and the dance was a lot of fun too. Hip Hop Zumba (Arica) - I've gone twice now, and it's so much fun! She talks to everyone as if she's really good friends with them and it's a nice, welcoming environment. She really knows how to make us sweat though! It's overall a lot of fun! There are people of all different backgrounds, ages and sizes that go, which I love! There are people that seem to have friends in the class, and some that are like me and don't know everyone, but no one seems to be judging anyone. I haven't felt embarrassed not knowing the choreography right away. I've jumped up when everyone was going down, and I just laughed because it's a fun environment. She's an awesome instructor, and she promotes what else is going on at the dance company. Deep stretch (Raii) -- Definitely love taking this class! It's at 8p on Wednesdays (after the Hip Hop Zumba) and it feels great to just stretch after a good workout and before bed. Raii is so calming, and he's not pushing anyone to do anything that may hurt. He's said a few times, "as long as you feel the stretch, you're doing a great job". I just thought to myself "how positive is that!". I really felt a great stretch on my big muscles, and on my little muscles. It was relaxing but great! There weren't a ton of people at this class when I went, so it felt more close knit the class. I was surprised though, because he's awesome and the class is a great stretch class! Overall, I recommend this place to anyone! It's a great workout, and so different from the mundane gym / treadmill / weights routine. All the classes I took were the adult classes, and I liked the 6 classes package purchase. There's also other packages which all of them are reasonably priced. I think this place is great for literally anyone. There's no judgement, they welcome everyone and the people that do attend all have a good time, I do for sure. The one and only thing I wish they would do, is make a dance to Ed Sheeran's "Shape of You" because I love Ed!

The class was just me and the owner, so we both got individual attention at our respective levels, and a good amount of cardio. My arms were burnt out at the end of class, and I learned a kick too. They also have capoiera and I'm excited to try that too. I'm just glad that since this was a dance studio, i didn't walk into am expert class, and both of my classes here have been manageable for non dancers.

I tried places I had not in the past. Peacemaker lobster. So good. Had the mini roll. The bread was fresh, buttery, crispy. The lobster was tasty with the right amount of mayo. Juan tacos. Birra taco was the best. Came out hot. Was not greasy at all. Very tasty. Wools get again. The chicken taco was good. The steak taco was ok. The taste frozen lemonade was very refreshing and good. The creek bros lemonade was good but the sugar crystals were interesting to chew on. Parking can be challenging in Clayton but meters are free on the weekend. There's definitely a lot of restaurants. Quite a few caterers. Some brought their own chairs, else eat while standing. There was some shade which was a welcome relief to the 98 degree heat index. Always a good time when looking to try many new things.
