“Militza was wonderful she was patient and easy to follow and I would take another class with her. The location was beautiful right by the ocean and quick walk to nearby local restaurants to make for a fantastic night out. Only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 was the size of the class felt a little big 20-25 people.”
