EXCELLENTBased on 30 reviewsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Sabrina McGrathAugust 13, 2024Excellent space for aerial training with large training space and high rigging points if desired. Adults and children’s classes are fun and challenging. Camp options are also great for summer, March break, etc. My daughter enjoys them.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Carissa NeufeldJuly 9, 2024This is a wonderful dance school! The owner has a passion for giving kids amazing and unique arts experiences - they have numerous dance classes but also run events and circus performances. It’s really a one of a kind dance school. My daughter loves the silks classes and the teachers and all friendly and fun.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Cathy KurzbockJune 23, 2024Hosted my kiddo’s 7th birthday party here and it was THE BEST! Great customer service in the planning/lead-up and FANTASTIC staff on the day of the event. Our instructor Emma was so great with the kids, teaching them cool tricks on the “silks” as part of the Circus training. Was so patient and helpful, and so accommodating when the pizza we ordered arrived late - she was cool as a cucumber and just kept the kids entertained a little longer. The assistant teacher Elisia was also so awesome - welcomed us, helped with set-up and clean-up and was so sweet with the kids. Excellent facility, easy to find/park, and just an all around awesome time. Highly recommend and can’t wait to return with some of my own pals sometime!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.juliana NiñoMay 10, 2024This is a beautiful place to practice aerials, I just had my first class today and It was fun and I learned a lot, Jen is a great coach !!
