I expressed my inability to twerk and her confidence in me to learn made me feel like I should definitely try it out. I had fun, I sweat, and the music was great.

And if you try and leave before she is done she publicly questions and tries to embarrass you for wanting to leave. Her members are also very harassing if you ever disagree with her.

We have 4 daughters and have attended 7 independent schools all over the country. Moses Brown is an…read moreexcellent school for all our girls. It is large enough that each daughter is able to find her place academically, socially, spiritually, athletically and is able to develop a healthy sense of self. MB is unique in that the Quaker values provide a calming, quiet powerful start to their day and help to build a partnership with their teachers. Our world is changing fast and we feel that Moses Brown is focused on the world that our girls will thrive in bc of their experiences and problem solving skills. No school is perfect but from our experience we feel that MB partners with us as parents to help mentor our kids to be the best they can be, to help make the world around them a better place and to feel Confident in their abilities. It is a challenging school but large enough to accommodate different learning styles. When there are tough issues that arise the faculty addresses them immediately. Our family is active at the school because we believe in the MB mission and feel blessed to be a part of the welcoming community.

The hours are a little funny, but you can work around them if privacy is what you're looking for…read more Not many people use the gym upstairs, so you can roll up and workout without many people bothering you. That being said, I am incredibly disappointed with an experience in the cardio/weight room. One of the staff members was so loud and talking to what seemed to be a regular patron. They were so loud, I couldn't even hear the music in my ears! They even put the news on, upped the volume, and started giving commentary. Not professional. In fact, it was infuriating. Upon leaving, I asked to speak to whomever is in charge to put in a formal complaint. They took my name and number, but I never got a call. Probably got thrown out. Despite all this, I go because I love the swim lessons for son. I think everyone else I've dealt with has been nice, but the establishment has definitely been neglected, especially the website! Why can't you post hours of operation, class schedules, and announcements on the website or Facebook? Hire an intern, anything? Yeesh.

It was cool to see other make pieces that were different to what we were making and the process behind that. You do have to wait a day to pick up your pieces, but they do also ship and hold pieces for around 30-40 days. The drinking glasses my partner and I made turned out great! Definitely a great value and would recommend!

I love that the class was limited to 4 people and we had two instructors. We felt completely safe at all times. Ian and Ben were funny and instructive, with very easy, straightforward directions. It was a perfect first exposure to glass blowing, and we'd love to return! We chose the ornament-making, as it's a simple, easier process for first-timers. They turned out gorgeous! The class was about an hour, and we felt the cost of the lesson and ornament were a good value! I highly recommended this experience at Gather Glass. *The glass item you make is outrageously hot, and needs to cool significantly. You pick up your piece the next day at the same place. *Check out the other Gather experiences on there !

The class is an hour long with half tap and half acrobats. I'm guessing this is to be able keep these younger dancers attention! The kids seem great, any staff I have interacted with have been helpful and the little always looks forward to going to dance class! They just moved from the original location on Newport Ave a few blocks away to Grand Avenue, Pawtucket, RI - The new studio is a block back from the main road, has plenty of parking (on weekend mornings anyway!), is located on the 2nd floor, is very large and clean. They have a coat rack area for parents and a room with shelving and hooks for the students to place coats and bags. Keep walking ahead to get to the reception area that is also connected to a large waiting room full of chairs and ottomans for the parents / siblings. There is a changing room with a bathroom off of it, a second bathroom with changing table, a kitchen type area with picnic table type seating for the kids to have snacks / drinks in between classes. There are three studio spaces in there now.... I only got to see the one (classes were in session!)....but it was very nice. Large mirrors, ballet bars, very nicely done. I can not say too much about the actual dance lessons at this point - So, I will have to report back once we have been bringing her here a bit longer - so far so good and the little is always excited to go! This building has a few other tenants but with all the signage we had no problem finding the way to go....the check in process at the reception desk is quick and easy. The only negative about this space is the open tread stairs at the front entry. Not being used to "seeing through" stairs, the little got sketched out when we hit the landing and started going up to the second floor. Luckily with a few quick reassurances she kept going and it wasn't mentioned again until we encountered another little girl and her mom on the stairs on our way out - having the same issue! Not major by any means but something to note. All in all - this place looks like a great way to get started in dance!
