Powered by GoogleLoved Caitlyn Intermediate Silks class - she was able to get through a long beautiful sequence that you could do all in one or separately - very versatile and easy to plug into other sequences. She was very attentive to each of us in class. Also really enjoyed her humorous and fun energy! Favorite silks class so far at AP! AP is an awesome studio with so many offerings - everyone is supportive - making you feel like you're part of a cirque family!
We had a great time at mini movers. Gisela was active and engaged. She especially loved the rope swing and picking up the stuffed toys. We will be back.
This studio is a blessing to this area. The environment is dedicated to playful and communal sports. There is nothing like it. I never have felt so embraced in a studio or a group.
Great variety of challenging classes, relaxed atmosphere, & knowledgeable instructors. The emphasis on functional mobility and body awareness is a great compliment to my triathletic endurance activities. :) I'm a big fan of Creative Conditioning, which involves innovative equipment to build strength while having fun, and All Levels Acrobatics, during which coach Zach proved to me that, "Yes, you can learn how to do a backflip!" After an excellent, total body warmup & activation routine, he expertly guided us through a series of conditioning exercises that address the fundamental movements involved in backflipping. Then he set up a series of stations that progress the skill from basic to advanced levels. He provided individualized pointers to each student (covering a wide range of different abilities), engendered great camaraderie and a supportive environment. Challenging and lots of fun! 🤸🏼♂️
My favorite place of both learning and community. I will recommend this place to everyone looking for some amazing skill- and community-building. Classes expertly scheduled and run. Teachers very knowledgeable, prompt, and safety-oriented. Made some amazing friends here for my life. Can’t wait to visit again now that i have moved away. There’s nothing like this place and these people.
