I had a great one on one class with Dancing Designer. They were prompt in their response and extremely punctual. I learned from the minute my time started till the very end. I was surprised as to how much they were able to impart upon me in just an hour. The instructor was very patient and efficient. It was a great work out for both my mind and body!
