gymboree or kindermusik?

[enjey]

^thanks for the info khriseee!

Dr. Liz didn't respond to my email about Kindermusik trial classes in Shang kaya I went with the one near our house na, hehe! Blessing in disguise naman yata kasi I learned from another mom that teacher suzette's classes is supposed to be part of the Maestro class chaka I really like her. She's really nice and plus factor is that if I enroll J in the Saturday classes it's just a 10-15 min drive away from our village. Iwas traffic! yay!

Sis, ano ba yung maestro class? I checked their website, yung ibang location may Maestro sign, yung iba wala. Pero same class naman.

^hi enjey, got this from Kindermusik na site na generic and affiliated with any of the classes here in Manila. It should be able to explain the maestro concept better than i can

Are you also enrolling your baby to classes? How old is he/she?

[enjey]

Ah ok. So better pag may Maestro my baby just turned 1 so will enrol her sa village. I prefer sana sa Podium kaso kakastart pa lang daw nila so basically no students pa. Pag meron daw nagenrol at least 4 students, itutuloy nila. Pag hinde umabot, im not sure pa kung san ko ienrol si baby Kung piliin ko kay T. Jeannie, baka sa fort na lang. If not, baka sa shang na lang kasi walang Maestro. Hehe

^sis enjey, we attend the village class at Shang and so far ok naman. I like it and I've seen a huge improvement with my daughter. I think we just had our first or second session of the second unit last Oct 27. We didn't have class on Nov 3 so classes reconvene this Saturday.

sis cldy, sorry didn't get to check out if gymboree is open yet at Shang, I'll check it out this weekend

[hunny_ally]

^i was at Shang last Sunday. Parang open na

[khriseeee]

^ah really? Yay! I wonder what they changed. I'm excited for my daughter to try it out now that she can crawl and stand.

[hunny_ally]

^oh I didn't get to check. Just saw it from afar & there were people inside. Mukhang Hindi naman construction staff so i assumed they re-opened.

[enjey]

Sis khriseeee, pwede ba mag enrol anytime? Sa website kasi nila, august yung start. So parang january pa next class.

Gymboree Shangrila opened uli last October pa.

Kaya lang, may price increase starting January 1, 2013.

Better beat the price increase and enrol before the year ends para mahabol pa ang old rates.

[jhez]

^yep. 10% din tataas ng Gymboree... Di pa rin ako nakabalik for the trial lesson... Kakainis super busy...

[enjey]

Kelan start ng class sa gymboree shang? I already enrolled my 1yr old sa kindermusik podium every thursday. Gusto ko pa sana ng isa pa na mon or tues class. Based sa nabasa ko dito, gymboree is more physical, tama ba? pwede na ba yun for 1 year old na hinde pa matatag maglakad? How much sa gymboree and ilan sessions?

[PrincessC]

^ meron naman laging classes sa gymboree shangrila e. you can enrol anytime.
physical ang play classes pero may iba rin namang classes like arts, and music na di naman ganun ka-physical.
but the good thing about gymboree's classes are they are all age-appropriate. so the classes they will recommend you are specifically designed for your child's age level.
until the end of the year, minimum of P3,400 for a 4-week enrolment. but you have to a member in order to enrol. annual membership is P1,800.

by 2013, because of the price increase, P3,400 will be P3,600 and P1,800 will be P2,000.

[twelvth_goddess]

^That's right. According to Gymboree Eastwood mga around 200-400 nga daw price increase nila.

^^^sis how much yun Kindermusik? Pwede po pa-pM ng contact number? Thanks.

Hi sis! So even non-walkers ok lang sa play class ng gymboree kaya? Kasi my son although super likot na cant walk on his own pa. He needs to be assiste kasi parang lasing pa, hahaha! He's just learning. So parang im second guessing if ok na mag play class...

yes, like i said, all classes are age-appropriate.

Agree with PrincessC. Most likely ganyan din yung babies na kasabayan ng son mo.

I paid P9750. Thats for 15 sessions na.  Classes in Podium will start first week of january.

^^^ baby ko din hinde pa nagkalakad. Im not sure kung pano sa gymboree pero sa kindermusik, kasama naman talaga yung parent/adult sa class.

[jhez]

^sis do you have their number? I tried to email them several times kasi wala sagot. Hindi ko kasi alam kung makakahabol pa ako. Tagal ko kasi maagisip kung kindermusik or gymboree.

[enjey]

Sis wala eh. I remember i tried calling them before, yung nakalagay sa website nila but i always get an answering machine saying they might be in the middle of a class or something. Pero ngayon, baka naka christmas break na sila. Kaya nag walk in na lang ako sa Podium branch nila. Very accommodating naman sila. Pinag trial class nila ako on the spot.
