Pure Barre: 2 Locations in Charlotte!
Pure Barre is the fastest, most effective way to change your body. It’s a total body workout which utilizes the ballet barre to perform small isometric movements set to great music. The workout lifts your seat, tones your thighs, flattens your abs and burns fat in record breaking time! Pure Barre strengthens the muscles and then lengthens them right back out to create a long, lean look rather then bulk and mass.
I can say with conviction Pure Barre will make you look and feel awesome! I am no dancer, I’m kind of sporty spice! Since taking PB, I feel so much more elongated and toned and let me tell you, I’m ONE entire size smaller in my pants since taking unlimited classes in January. This is the bomb.com – I’m hooked! ~Jen P
Mention CSP and you’ll get the following:
New client special: Unlimited for 30 days/$100
5 classes for $105

Kumon
Kumon is the world’s largest after-school math and reading enrichment program. At Kumon, students of all ages and abilities develop the skills necessary to have a richer, more successful educational experience from preschool through 12th grade. Our methodology for learning gives students an unshakable understanding of reading and math, as well as a passion for learning that will grow and change as they do. We strive not only to give children the hope that they can become the people they’ve always imagined, but also to instill the desire to make it a reality. And we do that through a continual sense of accomplishment that will motivate them to achieve more than they ever thought possible.
There are no teachers at Kumon. We are not a tutoring service. Our extensively trained and certified instructors are guides helping your child along the path to success and self-discovery. Your child will advance with progressive worksheets for each subject, increasing his or her understanding of math and reading, all the while discovering the most important lesson of all — how to learn on his or her own. As your child completes assignments at our Learning Centers along with at-home assignments, the lasting benefits of Kumon — self-confidence, motivation and an insatiable passion for learning — will develop naturally. Our methodology for learning is perfect for children who want to be challenged and for those who need a little extra help catching up.
With centers in 47 countries/regions and more than 16 million students enrolled worldwide since the company was founded, Kumon has been one of the most successful academic enrichment programs for more than 50 years.

After a long day at camp, does your child wish they could take home more than a sunburn and a scary collection of mosquito bites? ART CAMP is just the ticket! Our art teachers don’t have nicknames like “Potato Chip”, but the only bugs your child will encounter are the ones they draw, and they’ll come home with fabulous artwork to hang up each day instead of a wet swimsuit! During our mixed media art camps, we’ll explore painting, drawing, 3D sculpture, collage, assemblages, printmaking & more! Age 4 – 14. Children are segregated into age groups to work on age-appropriate projects, or may work on the same open-ended project with modifications for their age.
