I took guitar from Brendan for three years and he is awesome. He was open minded about what I wanted to learn and also extremely patient. I highly recommend him to people of all ages.

Definitely check out Seattle Kajukenbo!
The kids program there is called 'Kung Fu Kids' and the website is www.seattlekajukenbo.com
This style is a combination of Korean Karate, Judo, Jujitsu, Kempo, and Chinese Boxing (Kung Fu). The kids also practice tumbling and games that develop hand-eye coordination and strategic thinking skills, and of course they have a fabulous time doing it! There are several class options to choose from and even if you have to wait a little while to get into a class it is really worth it. The Sifu and all the teachers are great. The kids learn so much from them. I have been especially impressed by their ability to teach so many important skills to the kids in a non-stressful and encouraging environment. My seven year old has been at the school for almost a year now and always has such a great time at her classes. The school is centrally located at 22nd and Union, and easy to get to from anywhere in Seattle. As with any school, you have to check it out for yourself, and let your child try a class. Seattle Kajukenbo teaches real skills and anyone who wants to learn, will really benefit. Self-defense skills are important!

This is the new library that opened a year or two ago. The building itself is worth the trip. It is a truly unique building with interesting art work. Inside there are multiple floors with an excellent choice of books. It is easy to spend hours in there. The location makes it a little inconvenient unless you have access to downtown parking, but it is well worth the inconvenience.

A great studio, with incredible instructors!!
They work with you and provide lots of great encouragement. They talk you through the postures and help individuals in the class improve. Very supportive teaching style, with positive feedback rather than criticism. I have been practicing there for five years, and both the studio and Bickram yoga are incredible.
I have practiced in other studios in different cities, and the Sweatbox is the best. If you want to practice or try Bickram yoga in Seattle, the Sweatbox is the place!

Good: The staff was very well trained in how to work with kids, in addition to the technical subject matter.. Bad: I'd like to see more locations available in Central California.. Improvements: I think it would be fun to have the summer camps tie in with follow-up virtual camps. Giant Campus is introducing virtual camps, and they seem like a lot of fun..

This is where I am going to get my degree. I really am glad I decided to go here because the instructors are so nice and because the schedule is so flexible. I work full time and I have been able to get my degree by going to night classes. My boss has helped a little with letting me leave early some days, but still, the school offers a lot of late night classes. The only downfall to this school is that you have to do a lot on your own. If you do not ask, they will not tell you (for instance: graduation information, financial aid, etc).

I studied at Brenneke and got a fantastic education. I have had massage from therapists all around the country and I still consistently find the Brenneke graduates to give the best overall massage. They have a special philosophy that goes beyond just the mechanics and it makes ALL the difference. Go to school here

This is a great school for serious students. The expectations are high, but the young women are nurtured so that they can achieve excellence. This is a wonderful place to grow into a responsible adult. Not just for Catholics- all religions are welcomed.

I took one of the "warm glass" classes at Pratt last year, and still can't get over what a wonderful place it is. The variety of courses offered are amazing, and the amount of one on one time with outstanding artists is top notch. Be a member, or start taking classes as soon as possible. It may seem expensive, but it's sooooo worth it. They have courses for every skill level, so don't feel like you have to be an "artist" to have fun.

More
The super thing about North Seattle Community College is that it's part of the Seattle Community College network, so basically you can take the same classes at North as you would at South or Central.
THere is ample parking there, and the whole campus looks kind of like a mall, with multi-leveled concrete-walkways connecting the different buildings. If it's raining while you're in class (of course it's always raining in Seattle), make sure to bring an umbrella so you don't get soaked walking from Chemistry to Algebra.
Their cafeteria food is provided by the Culiary Arts students and is TOP NOTCH and not expensive at all!!!
Oh yeah. The teachers are great and you get a good education there
