The progression I underwent the first two months training with Professor Victor exceeded the eight months of training at the previous gym I trained at. When you sign up with Candal's Martial Arts & Brazilian Jui Jitsu, you'll find various levels of jiu jiteros to train with, from white belts to black belts.

Whether you're looking to be a serious competitor or a hobbyist in jiu jitsu, I highly recommend training at Candal's Martial Arts & Brazilian Jui Jitsu!

The culture is welcoming and laid-back, making it a place our whole family genuinely looks forward to spending time at.

I have been bringing my girls to Strong dance studio for dance lessons for the past 2 years. I am…read morevery grateful for this studio and for the variety of classes that they offer! We have taken tap, contemporary, ballet, and Aerial silks. My girls have been taking ballet with Ms. Victoria this season and I really appreciate her teaching style. She is very attentive to their form and body posture and technique, yet does it in a fun and gentle way. She doesn't allow them to get away without a pointed foot! I really feel that their ballet technique will improve thanks to her guidance. My girls also take aerial silks with Ms Tiffany. I cannot say enough about this wonderful teacher. She is passionate about Aerial and my girls absolutely love her class! She's a great teacher because she actually demonstrates the moves, guides the students when they need direction or instruction, and is always very attentive to their safety. As a mother, I appreciate that the most! Aerial can be a daunting sport to start, but she makes it fun and is very encouraging to help them try new moves. My girls are advancing quickly thanks to her direction and leadership. I'm grateful to Ms Rachel, Ms Maribel and the rest of the admin team who works tirelessly in the background. Whether that is helping you with registration, getting costumes arranged for shows and photoshoots, and/or helping you with make-up lessons, they are accommodating and always very helpful when you email them. Lastly, I just have to talk about their Nutcracker performance. It is absolutely stunning! They do their holiday Nutcracker show to a live orchestra and it is and incredible experience for your dancer to be part of such a beautiful production. It is well choreographed, the costumes are superb, and the entire artistry of the show is well put together. They work very hard on this performance and it really shows. The kids look forward to it every season and it is a joy to watch from the audience. Thank you Ms. Rachel for creating a studio to carry on the passion of dance to our next generation. I know you are working very hard to try to make it a great experience for our dancers and for our families, and we do appreciate all your hard work. Thank you for sharing the gift of dance and giving these opportunities for our kids to grow!

Our oldest daughter took a one-time class here with her Girl Scout troop…read more It was just one class, but I was profoundly impressed. Strong Dance is located in a strip mall on Walker Street in Cypress. There's plenty of free lot parking nearby. When you walk in, you'll most likely be greeted by a friendly person at the desk just to the left. The studio itself is deceivingly large. There are a few dance rooms and TONS of sitting room for parents and siblings. It's clean. And tastefully decorated with large framed black and white photos of their students with their dance biographies. Our daughter brought her own jazz shoes, but the studio also had some available for the girls to borrow. Ms. Esther was our troop's patient and enthusiastic instructor. All the girls seemed to enjoy her style of teaching. If we didn't live quite so far away, this would be a spectacular place for our daughters to learn and grow!

We first did the free trial with them, and were pleasantly surprised to see a family-owned business with the most awesome and understanding owners, Era and Ruth.

Our daughter usually gets irritable at activities like gym, and while her attention still needs work, she seems to enjoy the environment a lot and is improving little by little! As a parent, I couldn't ask for more. Definitely recommend this place as a safe space for your kids to learn gymnastics!
