Ah I'm so happy to write a review of the good people at Sink Or Swim Scuba!! I dove with them a…read morecouple weeks ago and then got right back into the swing of things home in Montreal that I delayed, but thought of them so fondly and am so happy to give them 5 stars! From the outset, communication with them through their website and via email was easy and super fast and friendly and professional. I got a great impression right away, which for me is important. Scuba diving makes me ridiculously happy every time I do it and I want to keep doing it with people who make me feel safe and cared for, and more than that, people who have that respect for the ocean and the science that makes the whole thing feel almost reverent. I spent an afternoon with a divemaster who works at Sink Or Swim, rented all my gear from them, had a thrilling, crazy cold, deeply beautiful dive, then spent a while pouring over dive books learning the proper names for everything we saw. One thing was I wish they had urged me to book one dive and upgrade to two if I could stand the cold since I'm not dry suit certified, but I understand business-wise why they did what they did and couldn't reimburse me when I was too blue for number two. Main point: the people here are awesome and conscientious and cool and I will dive with them when I'm back that way for sure.

Four weeks ago I started my open water scuba diving course. The reason I went to SoS was because…read moreI was referred here from a friend and he said amazing things about them and he was right! The course was amazing. Top notch instructors, and when it came time to do our ocean dives, we had more than enough dive masters along with us to make sure everyone was comfortable, safe and had a great time. Since then I have bought all my gear through them and they were very informative and took the time to explain all my options and the positives and negatives of each piece of equipment. Last weekend I took part in their annual poker dive. Although the weather didn't turn out for us, everyone had a great time. They have gone above and beyond for me and I know if there is anything I need they will be there for me!

Fine Balance Pilates is the best! Owner/instructor Margaret Merrett has developed quite the…read morefollowing of fitness enthusiasts over the years an when you take her classes, you will see why . Margaret Merrett has been working in the fitness industry for over 25 years, and is a fully certified Pilates Teacher and a BCRPA Personal Trainer. She is enthusiast, an always cheerful. Classes are kept small enough that even though ythere are others in the room, she gives individual attention and is always quick to modify exercies to your particular needs. She offers reformer pilates, matt pilates, spinning classes, and more..... I am hooked on the reformer pilates because you can't cheat while doing the exercises and her routines are always varied so it's never the same thing twice. In the past I have gone to a traditional gym and always got bored and never saw the results I wanted. With reformer pilates, it only takes a few weeks and you will see the results. What I notice about Margaret's studio that sets her apart from many of the others is her quality of instruction and standards for her other instructors. I've been to other fitness studio's whose client base is based on the following of the owner/operator. The thing I found;however, is when the owner/operator is away or has a sub, I have always been left feeling like "that was a waste of my time because _____________ was not here to instuct." With Margaret's other instructors or the rare time she has a sub, I am NEVER left feeling that. She has high stanards for herself including her other instructors. Exceptional fitness instruction all-round.
