Kinetic Arts Center

Customer service 5/5Environment 5/5Quality of teachers 5/5I have been going to Kinetics Art Center for over a month now and it has exceeded my expectations overall. The adult drop in class packages work best for me and I've been consistently attending Sam (primarily silks and lyra) and Megan's (trapeze) classes. I called the front desk to make my initial purchase because there were so many options, I couldn't decide what I wanted based on my schedule. Fortunately, Janelle (front desk) was very patient and helpful, and I ended up getting the 10 class pack. When I got there, it was a bit intimidating because I was more used to smaller studios, but everyone here was so nice. Janell also made sure to check on me to see if I was doing ok when I took my first class. The other students and teachers were very welcoming and supportive to check out other classes, which is how I ended up with taking two classes back to back at-least once a week instead of just one class. In regards to the teachers, "great" would be such an understatement. I love Sam's class because even though it's primarily silks, they'll put one other apparatus (hoop mainly, and recently flying pole!) for us to try out-so it's more than just one apparatus in this one class. I also really like that they'll give us challenging *enough* moves because it's so satisfying to execute steps after struggling so much for it. I also love Megan's trapeze class because she's very flexible with our experiences. This pace is great for me because I don't have alot of experience with trapeze and the ropes on it feel so different from silks! Nikki and Zi have substituted for their classes and they're both amazing as well. I'd highly recommend taking classes here. It's a fun and challenging workout compared to a regular gym...I also love that it's spacious too!

I bought tickets to the Circus Austerius for myself, my husband and 6 yo daughter. The show was amazing! I had never heard of Kinetic Arts Center until I had come across it in 510familes.com, just looking for something to do this weekend. The show's performers ranged from 12-18 yo and the acrobatics, contortions, juggling and clowning were just beautiful, funny and awe inspiring. There's floor seating which is fine if you have little kids and they like to move around. We bought chair seating only because I know my back and neck would not tolerate sitting on the floor for 2 hours. There are snacks available for a nominal price. Doors open 30 min before the show starts. The staff are friendly and helpful. Tickets range from $24-36, I believe more if you go VIP. There's not a bad seat in the house. In addition to the shows, they offer classes and camps. Check out the show! It runs until the last weekend in March. My daughter who is 6 thoroughly enjoyed every minute of the show.

So this is a covid change review, disclaimer for that up front.I signed my daughter up for the entire September- December aerial session because requiring longer sessions is part of the new covid era changes. Fine, it's expensive but it's worth it. I showed up on the second one of her classes to find out the parents are not allowed in the studio to observe. My daughter is seven. I would like to be able to see she's how she's doing, how she's progressing, and encourage her. This is extremely frustrating. Added to this, there was no indication of this when I signed her up. The policy is not posted on signs anywhere in the building, nor does it appear anywhere on their website. The seems incredibly arbitrary. I am a high school teacher and have been teaching 30 kids in a classroom for the last month. Everyone is masked, air purifier is going, and windows are open. All teachers are required to be vaccinated. This "No Parents" policy does not seem wholly supported by science or CDC recommendations. The whole thing is extremely disappointing and has made me decide against signing my other child up for a session, which they had expressed interest in. I understand that they are making an attempt to keep everyone safe, but requiring vaccination cards and masks to enter would have made much more sense than a blanket ban on parents in the studio.

My 11 yr old daughter has been attending a beginner class since doing a summer class here (2019) in the summer. I appreciate the fun, firm, caring instruction in this non-competitive, collaborative environment. I like that my daughter is gaining interesting experiences and skills in a supportive, fun community.

Oooh. I took my first ever class here. I was really nervous but the staff was friendly and encouraging. My instructor was really patient with me and I learned a lot. They have a big parking lot, clean bathrooms, and you can make reservations online or over the phone. CONVENIENT!

I looooooove exercising here. It's rigorous but fits your ability where you are. I feel like I've gotten so strong and I love coming.

WOW!Saw a show here (Circus Odious), for the first time last night and was completely blown away by this place on every level.Show wise-Cirque du Soleil this is not folks....if you are looking for world class polish in performance, that is a machine ready to take yer doubloons. Rather, come here to have your socks charmed right off your feet.This place puts on an incredibly well produced production with 12-17 yr young kids who try their absolute hearts out. INCREDIBLE what they do. And it is wicked fun.The setting, the set, the costumes, the music, the content, the kids, OMG-who knew you could pull this off!The staff and facility are just excellent-place is run like a Swiss Watch With A Smile.Major Applause for what they are doing.We'll be regulars here now we know it exists.....Dear Kinetic Art Center: THANK YOU!

This review is not about the service this place provides. This is about how i was treated as a parent of a student, you know, the one who pays the bills.Apparently, parents arent allowed to watch classes their children are enrolled in. Ive been kicked out of watching several times. Why arent parents allowed to watch? Noone will tell me. The teacher said that some students might not like it. She wouldnt say if someone in the current class felt that way. So i asked the "facilities manager" who couldnt or wouldnt explain it. She said she'd look into it but never contacted me again. Also, the areas you can sit in are super uncomfortable. You cant watch and there is nowhere comfortable to be while the classes you cant watch are going on.This woud be a major flaw in their scheme except that they dont give an f about parents. As soon as my daughter loses a touch of excitement about this terrible place, we're going to stop going and find somewhere tht isnt hostile to parents.

Kristin Robsen ("TT") was our instructor and she was incredbly professional. She made it fun while offering us a good challenge at the same time. The girls loved it . TT you are a great ambassador for this sport. Thank you for a great time! we highly recommend the Kinetic Arts Center!

Dear Kinetics Center,I really like what you are doing for the children and I applaud the parents who take the time out to take their children there. I'm the audience who buys tickets and don't know anyone personally involved. The last performance 12/2019 was clever in some respects but lacked what I seek, which are the kinetics, the acrobatic scenes. So to an audience who is drawn to purchase tickets not only because of the story but also for the acrobatic stunts, it seems like consistency is lacking considering the namesake of your company. Also I notice there were not children involved except from the audience. I thought this was a family center. I paid VIP tickets for the donation aspect, knowing it went to a good cause and I have no problem with that.
