I started going to Aradia 2 months ago, and I couldn't have made a better choice! I have always been someone who is in the gym several times a week. Since starting at Aradia, I have no need for my regular gym; I have seen better results with my flexibility, core strength, and muscle definition by taking classes at Aradia. I love the pole classes, but I also love that there are so many other types of classes: Zumba, chair dance, Aerial Silks, twerking, flexibility, yoga, etc...
I also have to mention the people; both the instructors, and other people taking the classes. I have not met anyone who was not friendly, eager to learn/teach, and extremely supportive of each other. I have never been a "group class" type of person, so I was very leery at first. That feeling went right out the window as soon as I walked in the studio for the very first time. The instructors and staff are always smiling and welcoming, and I find it is very easy to meet new friends. I figured out very quickly that we all share something in common; we want to have fun while getting in shape. There is no "standard" size or age for both the instructors and people taking the class, and it is a very comfortable environment.
I know I have found my "fitness home", and I am so happy that I did.
The equipment in the studio is top-notch, and extremely safe. The instructors are all well-educated in safety and techniques. This is very important to me, because I know firsthand how badly you can hurt yourself using bad techniques (I have also seen enough youtube videos of what can go wrong with cheap equipment).
One last thing: Pricing. They have great prices, and you can customize how much you want to pay based on how many classes you want to take. Personally, I decided on the 6-month membership, because I like taking as many classes as I can each month.
I would recommend Aradia to everyone; it is so different from your typical gym workout, and who knows, you may find a new passion you never knew you had; I know I did :)
