Shane and Josh were positive, encouraging, patient, and inspiring throughout the entire session. Their passion and enthusiasm made such an impact that our son finished his morning lesson from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. and couldn't wait to come back for an evening ride from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. The entire experience was truly amazing. Thank you both for creating lifelong memories and helping build our son's confidence and excitement. We are incredibly grateful for everything you do. We will absolutely recommend you to others and will definitely be back. Please continue inspiring young people the way you do. We look forward to seeing you again soon! Rich G

A complete disappointment from the very beginning less than 5 into the performance. Horrible, awful, uncomfortably long transitions, causing darkness in the whole house at one point for more than 35 seconds. I am embarrassed to say I know someone in the show. It will be a long time before I see the Ballet Theater San Luis Obispo. This performance was so poor, I have considered asking for a refund. Boo to the Director, Choreographer, Stage Manager for subjecting the players to such reticule. The theater SLO PAC was occupied less than 30%, perhaps was a warning sign. The performance was such a disaster we chose to leave at 1st intermission at 45 min mark.

I started dancing with BT-SLO as a middle schooler. I can honestly say now in my 30s looking back…read moreon my experience over the years, that there are few things more influential in my life than ballet and my time spent with this studio. While I never perused a professional career in ballet, Ms Terry taught me lessons of perseverance, hard work, commitment, and disciple that has carried into every aspect of my life. When I left for college in SF and I always loved returning for drop in classes during my school breaks. I've danced in studios in SF and NYC - I have yet to find teachers who are truly committed to your progress and providing professional level technique training for someone like me who just wants to dance without any intention of being professional. I recently moved back to SLO and returned to regular ballet classes and the studio as an adult. It's clear that Ms Terry's training from my youth still lives in my body and muscle memory (even if my body isn't what it used to be lol). Being able to dance and perform again (even despite the hurdles of Covid) has been a life saver to my mental and physical health. The people who dance here and support this small company (all different from when I was a kid) quickly became my community in and out of the studio. It has really helped me settle into SLO again. I'm forever grateful for this company, Ms Terry, and Blair for creating this space, gathering an amazing community, and giving me endless opportunities to follow my passions. I cannot recommend this studio and this company enough to anyone who is interested in ballet. It is a true gem that I've loved for over 18 years!

A few weeks ago my girlfriend said she wanted to receive hadn't gun training. She had shot many…read moreyears prior with a hand gun really, too big for her, that was difficult to control. For me, it had been close to 30 years the last time I shot a had gun, but in 2005 I did purchase a hand gun and shotgun. To date, I have shot neither. As for my girlfriend's son, he loves shooting in video games, so it was time to see if he could hit the mark on a real range. I communicated with Jonathan after finding his academy on Yelp, I filled out the email on his site and we discussed what I was after for the three of us over the phone. We met him in the parking lot at Range Master in SLO on a Saturday. After signing a release form, we got our safety glasses and ear protection, both plugs and noise canceling headphones, in which Jonathan could talk to us once in the range. Making our way inside, Jonathan took the led, picking out ammo and targets, as we filled out more paperwork, providing our CADL to the guy behind the counter. Once completed it was time to make our way inside the range. We staged in a "ready room," putting on our glasses and ear protection, which receiving our targets and ammo through a small pass way. After goin g through their two-day system, we were inside the range, not crowded but a lot of other shooters, as we made our way down to lane eight. Jonathan discussed hand gun safety and the parts of a hand gun, showing us how to pick up and hold the weapon confidently. He showed us how to load magazines, with and without a loader. It was then time to shoot. My girlfriend started on a .22 ,a hand gun with virtually no recoil, easy to use and friendlier than the larger caliber she tried to use years ago. Wouldn't you know it, her first shot, a bullseye, right through the 'X' on the target. Pretty impressive! What was more impressive was the knowledge and instruction we received but the patience Jonathan had with our son. He's on the Autism scale, but high functioning and I had let Jonathan know this prior to coming to the range. He took the extra time to explain and demonstrate what he wanted done. His shooting? Pretty good, much better with the .22 than the 9mm, but he still had a good time and it was something new to experience. As for me, it was a good refresher on the safety and use of hand guns, which have come a long way since I bought mine 20+ years ago! Jonathan did inquire about our shooting goals and the CCW permit came up. It was something I considered years ago, but the politics being what they were years ago, made this process very difficult. Those have changed since that time, and it's not as difficult if you can make it through the class and demonstrate accuracy and speed on the range. I appreciate the time Jonathan spent with us and the knowledge we gained from his instruction. We are looking at furthering our skills on the range and will coming calling the next time we want to shoot. Thanks to Jonathan and Steel Bear Academy, would highly recommend him and his services.
