I couldn't say enough good things about Valley Jiu Jitsu--will try to cover the details. My…read moredaughter went here for I think a little over two years before we moved. Having to take my daughter out of here hurt. The trainers / instructors were excellent and on top of being fantastic at Jiu Jitsu they were equally mastered at handling kids who might throw a fit or become upset or aggressive. In the time my daughter spent there I clearly recognized how she developed her attitude toward teamwork, respect, self-esteem, discipline.... They were very warm and welcoming toward newcomers who might be a little intimidated in the new environment. I saw several instructors who were all great but in particular I'll mention Andrew who was amazing with handling the kids, managing conflicts and teaching respect without ever losing his cool, and Jason and Patrick were both exceptional instructors who helped round out the positive learning experience and environment. I'd recommend Valley Jiu Jitsu for anybody, any age, looking to toughen up and learn the technique and enhance your attitude and self-discipline. Seeing my daughter grow and learn there was amazing and I give my deepest thanks to the instructors!

This ashram acknowledges that yoga pretty much requires abstaining from violence in all parts of…read morelife, including your food. Refreshing. It is a philosophy and spiritual practice, not an exercise technique. = We met up with a group of friends to try the new cafe, Food4All, and ended up getting an in-depth tour from the ashram's founder. An ashram (in case you don't know) is a residential facility for spiritual learning. This one recently opened in the former BCIU buildings on this land, and oh how lucky the neighborhood is to have this foundation move in. They are making the building sustainable, practice zero-waste techniques, and are surrounding the buildings with organic farms. The ashram moved to Berks from Toms River NJ and is open to all, for dining, classes, internships, volunteering, and training, even an advanced certification in yoga therapy. YT can be applied to any workplace to help both the employees and leaders as well as the clients/patiehnts/customers. What a good idea for staff training. The cafe is all-organic and vegetarian, gluten-free, soy-free, mostly vegan actually. We had quiche, pancakes, salad, roasted veggies, and breads in a lovely bright dining area with lots of chai tea (made with coconut milk) and light. There are some innovative yoga classes here, for example, using swings, but they make it all sound welcoming to beginners. What a glorious use of two old school buildings which have been transformed into an open, bright, spacious retreat with many uses.

Back in 1992, I moved from NYC, where I had been teaching dance for 20 years and trained with top…read moreschools like the Joffrey Ballet School, Broadway Dance Center and others. I trained many dancers who turned pro. When I came here, I could not find good schools close to where we moved. I found this school and it was wonderful. My daughter and I took classes there and were very impressed. It was hard to continue because it was a trip from where we lived, and during the weekdays, I was a single mom of 2, due to my husband's work away from home. I opened my own school, locally, and it was successful for 15 years, until I retired from ownership and passed it onto others. I retired, temporarily, from teaching (since 1973) due to bad knees. Once I had them replaced, I called the owner, who is a colleague of mine who had judged for me at my competition, to take some classes to get back to dance. She asked me to also teach. I've been teaching there and am still so impressed with, not only the professionalism, but the moral and ethics, that match mine, that I find are lacking in some schools, I love working there and how she, and the staff, truly care for the well-being of the dancers. Michelle will not abandon her ethics, just to make a parent, or child, happy. Her standards are too high, thank goodness. I am so happy, after the few years I took off from teaching and dancing, to be at this dance school. I love the fact that their annual student demo concert does not charge fees for costumes, or concert fee. Only ticket sales. It is run beautifully, and I love working with professional teachers who think like me and have the background of excellent training, not just as dancers, but as teachers. If you are looking for an ethical school for your child, or yourself, with people who care more about you than what you can bring to them, this is the place. Thanks, Michelle Wurtz, for bringing me on board, in my later years, and giving me back my passion and the joy of teaching, again.

Only my second massage to date, this was a much less corporate feeling place than where I had been in Chicago. I liked that it felt like home, yet was very professional and clean. The bathroom was huge and filled with nice smelling things and cute decor. The massage room was light and spacious and she played soothing music while working on my back, legs and arms. I would definitely make the trip back to Phoenixville for Laura. Everything about the experience was positive for me, and I felt very lucky to have enjoyed a massage here.

I especially enjoyed attending while I was pregnant because the instructors were so great about keeping me safely active to my best ability, which was something that did not compare anywhere else. My baby is now almost one year old and smiles whenever he hears Tricia or Kim. I love the donation based model because it is so easy to invite a friend to practice.
