As always, the training was focused on technique but making sure the kids have fun. She changes activities frequently so the kids do not lose interest and makes sure they are safe.

Professor Thamires is always welcoming and makes class super friendly and fun. As a new student I especially appreciate how she breaks down each move step by step. A bit more coaching tips during free roll would be a great way to also promote further learning and safety. It’s always a good time!
