I've been familiar with In Your Skin Studio since their former location, and seeing how they've…read moregrown into this new space has been incredible. Their new studio feels even more intentional and dedicated to their programming -- it's versatile, welcoming, and truly designed for community, movement, and connection. From pole classes to hip hop, salsa, bachata, workshops, and social events, there's such a wide range of offerings that make the space feel alive and accessible to so many different people. What stands out most to me isn't just the variety of classes, but the people and the care behind the experience. The instructors do an amazing job catering to different skill levels in a way that feels encouraging rather than intimidating. I recently took my very first pole class there, and I knew that if I was ever going to try pole, it would be at In Your Skin. I went in with zero expectations and left completely exhilarated. I was honestly surprising myself with what I was able to accomplish in just one class -- it felt like I was defying gravity at times. A huge part of that experience was because of Nicole, who was absolutely phenomenal. She was attentive, hands-on, supportive, and incredibly skilled at spotting, explaining movements, and helping students feel safe and confident. I especially appreciated how she blended pole with dance, creating multiple ways to connect with the movement and practice. But beyond the instruction, the community in that room was unlike anything I've experienced before. I actively participate in dance communities and travel both domestically and internationally for dance spaces, and the sense of support I felt during that first pole class genuinely stood out. People were rooting for each other in real, tangible ways. There was encouragement, celebration, and care that felt authentic -- something that can honestly be rare in movement spaces. I'm truly grateful this was the beginning of my pole journey, and I'm excited to continue discovering what I'm capable of through this studio. Another thing that matters deeply to me is who I'm supporting with my money, and the owner, Sada, is a huge reason why this space feels so special. She doesn't just own the studio -- she actively participates, teaches, and thoughtfully cultivates the environment both in the foreground and behind the scenes. You can feel the intention and integrity in the way the studio operates. The pricing is also refreshingly accessible, which makes consistent movement and community participation possible in a way I haven't often experienced elsewhere. And perhaps the biggest testament I can give: I don't even live in the same state as In Your Skin Studio, yet I willingly travel just to be part of what they've built there. That alone says everything.

Two of my children ahve attended Ponaganset High School. One is a graduate and is now in college,…read moreand one is a current student. I'm very happy overall with their education and experience at PHS. This school does a great job with the many CTE pathway programs, and students have the opportunity to earn real certifications such as CPR and OSHA while still in high school. The school facility is far better than many other high schools in Rhode Island with up to date classroom technology and clean hallways, classrooms, and bathrooms. The grounds are expansive with wooded cross country running paths and beautiful soccer, football, and baseball fields. The tennis courts have lights and all of the athletic areas are well maintained. I feel that for the most part, my children have received a good education here. As in any public school, some teachers are better than others, but for the most part I've found the teachers to be competent, dedicated, and they have good relationships with their students. My college age child was well prepared for university classes and had the opportunity to earn college credits credits through AP and EEP classes. The Music Department at PHS is a strong point of the school. Both the chorus and the instrumental program are outstanding and the students perform at very high levels. The students in the music program have the opportunity to audition for All State, and they also are able to participate in the yearly music department trip. Students in the music program develop a close bond with their classmates, and many great memories are made through the events and concerts they participate in. The music department teachers are amazing and are som eof the best teachers in the school. My only criticism of Ponaganset High School is with the AP classes. In my children's experiences, there isn't much accountability for the teachers of AP classes to truly teach the AP curriculum. In several of their AP classes, the content has not been fully covered. I wish the administration would put more time into monitoring the instruction in these classes to make sure the curriculum is covered, but that is the only downside I've seen, so I would definitely recommend Ponaganset High School.

Tuition runs about $3200. for the year which i feel is pretty reasonable for private school. The kids receive a quality education and the kind of endowment they could never receive in public school. The class sizes are small, my eighth grader is in a class of 10. There is familiarity as the kids have gone through the years with the same group of kids. I feel this has cut down on peer pressure and some of the other issues associated with school. The teachers take an interest in the kids education and are quick to get in touch with parents if there is an issue or extra help is needed. The one thing I don't like is there is no play area. When the kids get to go out at recess they are forced to play in the parking lot. While my stepson will probably disagree with me and may even do so her, as he should if he chooses, it is my hope that he will appreciate his education and experience here as truly special as he gets older.

Dear Trinity, Now that I am in High School and no…read morelonger part of your student body, I have realized how much my years with you really did matter. Truthfully I have begun to miss the unity and family-like atmosphere that you constantly portray. Although I may have been excited to join public school and wear whatever clothes I pleased every day, I now regret my eagerness to leave. Though I do miss you, I can honestly say thatyour lessons and moral teachings helped me become a person who knows what people to surround myself with and reflect on. Not only does this keep me out of drama, but also keeps me focused on my schoolwork. Thanks to your years of preparation, I don't just long to recieve good grades, but also to understand the use of every lesson I learn, so I can apply the skills in my future. As I sit in my classes everyday, I notice the severe disrespect that circulates through the students torwards our teachers. I hope that , as we get older, my classmates will mature; however, I also know that I notice these things because you have tought me the importance of respect, discipline, and knowledge. Even though I do appreciate and enjoy my current teachers, I truly all the teachers I had throughout my years at TCA. I regret all the times I was ungrateful,disrespectful,or unmotivated torwards the task at hand and any of my superiors. I wish I had sooner realized all of the hard work and sacrifice that was given by all your faculty to make my experience at TCA the best and most beneficial possible. In all truthfulness, without your guidance through the past years I dont know who I'd be as a student or a moral person. I am grateful my parents were able to send me to your school, and I know that the growth and experiences I went through with you will, for sure, last me a lifetime. Your familiar atmosphere led me to feel comfortable and welcomed among my classmates and teachers. I feel this aspect caused me to focus on my education and also taught me what healthy relationships should contain. Love, Entirely written by, A former student
