★★★★★Tina DeyerleMy 35-year—old daughter who is developmentally delayed has been a participant in Ooze Studio for nearly a year in both private and group settings. Mia is an amazing instructor and along with being creative she has a very special gift for relating to her students and making them proud of their accomplishments. We are do lucky to have her in the valley!
★★★★★J MinOoze Art Camp was the best morning activity for my 7 year old son during our summer family vacation in Monterey Bay. Having 3 hours of art a day for 5 days really flourished his creativity helped his attention span in other activities - reading and lego building. At first, we were all little nervous to drop him off with other random kids at an unfamiliar environment but he learned how to make friends and even felt empowered being in the mixed-age class. It was an amazing experience for all of us and I can't wait to sign him up for the next Ooze Art Camp during our next Monterey vacation.
