Jessica’s 5-star review: I bought a Groupon for a 6 class pass to Apex. The Groupon was specifically for Aerial classes. Options are: Aerial Silks, Aerial Hoops (Lyra), and Aerial Conditioning. I've tried all 3 classes with Cassidy instructing. She is amazing!! These classes have been so challenging, but I'm so glad I've done them. Silks was my favorite. It was hard, but I felt progress from the beginning to the end of class. The hoop was REALLY difficult, but I'm told each class you'll do better than the last. Aerial conditioning was my first class here, and I didn't really know what to expect. There was some pole work, and you used silks as well. I feel like I get a great workout in these classes, especially in my upper body. Thank you Cassidy, for pushing me outside my comfort zone!!

Jessica’s 5-star review: Oh. Em. Gee!!! I just tried the Rachel Dunn chocolate decorating class for the first time, and I will definitely be back. This was a groupon find. After purchasing the groupon, it was really easy to sign up for our preferred class time. Once my group arrived at Rachel Dunn, we were given our aprons, hair nets, and name tags. After washing our hands, we were ushered into the work room. After a brief intro video, Rachel's husband mike came out to instruct the class. In between decorating our goodies, he told the story of their humble beginning. We probably decorated a dozen or so chocolates, all of which you wrap up at the end and get to take home to enjoy. After class, you're treated to samples from their storeroom, and receive a discount if you decide to purchase anything. I can't believe this gem has been hiding in Concord all this time. What a fun way to spend a few hours. The crowd is pretty diverse - young and old, girlfriends, couples, families. I can't wait to go back! -
Jessica’s 4-star review: I bought a couple's massage package on Groupon, and took my mom for her birthday. This place looks a little "meh" from the outside. It's a 2nd floor walk up over Tiki Tom's. The rooms though... The ambiance was AMAZING! It was clean, had (faux?) fireplaces, light music, and was everything you'd expect from a swanky day spa. The masseurs were so good! I felt great after my massage, super well rested. They also gave me a discount card, and said that they would honor the groupon rate going forward if booked with them directly. I'm already looking forward to my next massage. -
Jessica’s 5-star review: Trying to be proactive with adulting this year, so as soon as my registration notice came in, I started shopping around for a place to get a smog check. Found MM Star Smog on Groupon, and liked that it was close to my house. I called and made an appointment for Saturday morning. The gentleman I spoke with over the phone was polite and helpful. The day of my appointment, I needed to push my time back. They were willing to accommodate the change. When I brought my car in, they told me it would take about 20 minutes. I was then shown to their waiting room - very clean. 20 minutes later, my car had passed, I was given a copy of the certification, and was told if I came back, they'd honor the Groupon price. -
Jessica’s 4-star review: My body has been taking a beating lately. Like 11 gym sessions last week. Went trolling Groupon for a way to treat myself, and came across Elevate. I liked the idea, and bought one session. I called and made my appointment - it was easy to do, and the person I spoke with was friendly. When I came in for my appointment, the first thing I did was fill out a questionnaire, and sign their waiver. After checking my blood pressure, I was shown to a room to change. You put on socks, gloves, crock like shoes, and a robe (all provided), and come out to the cryo chamber. Getting in, it almost reminded me of a standup tanning booth. And if you're a shorty like me, they raise the platform, so that your head is peeking out. There is an employee who monitors the chamber, he was nice enough, and we chatted (and I compared the chamber to an ice bar). I was inside for about a minute and a half, and he had me turn several times. I thought it would be the longest minute and a half ever, since it was so cold, but it was pretty enjoyable. Once my time was over, I went back to my room and changed back into my street clothes. Immediately, my right shoulder was less sore, and I was way more awake/alert. I will definitely check out Elevate again, and my only regret is that I didn't buy the three pack. Note to self, always buy more! -
Jessica’s 4-star review: For Christmas, I bought my cousin and her husband a Groupon to go play a round of mini golf here. They're new to the area and I wanted to give them something to DO. They had a really good time, so I decided to finally go check out their new location. I love the spooky theme, and there was so much to look at. Perfect for my family, who is BIG time into Halloween. For about $50, we got a round (18 holes) of golf and unlimited game play for a party of 4. Some of the holes were tougher than others, but nothing you had to be Tiger Woods to tackle. Took us about 30 minutes or so for all of us to get through the game. What I learned? I'm pretty terrible at mini golf (but I did have a few par 3s), but I had a lot of fun. After finishing golfing, we played some of the games. Everything was set to free play, which was nice. We got to shoot some zombies, and drive race cars. It was a great way to beat the heat! I look forward to visiting again soon. -
Jessica’s 5-star review: I purchased a Groupon for Anew Wellness Spa for a massage with Vichy shower. ***Brief interruption: What is a Vichy shower you ask? It is a kind of shower in which large quantities of warm water are poured over a spa patron while he or she lies in a shallow wet bed, similar to a massage table, but with drainage for the water.*** When I called to make my appointment, I was notified that they do not accept Groupon's on the weekend, but that they would honor the price anyway. No problem! I booked for a 60 minute massage. Anew Wellness Spa is tucked away behind a pharmacy on Monument Blvd. Upon arrival, I was given a brief questionnaire and taken to my room. The room with the Vichy shower was connected to the massage room, and that was up first. I was given a paper bra and short combo and was instructed to lie down. The shower was AMAZING! My masseuse Lisa scrubbed my body down while expertly using the shower head to massage me and keep me warm. After 15-20 minutes or so, I was told to take off my paper undergarments and lay down on the massage table. A few moments later, Lisa returned. My full body massage lasted about 45 minutes, and was great! Lisa maximized every minute, using her feet on my back to CLIMB over to the other side of the table without walking around. I was so relaxed afterward, and am very glad I wrote Lisa's name down, because I'll definitely be back! -
Jessica’s 5-star review: I was surprised to see a few negative reviews for Trina. I purchased the Groupon, and reached out to Trina for the first time via Yelp. She responded promptly and told me that she had just had emergency surgery but to reach out in a few weeks. When I reached out again, I was able to make an appointment. On the day of my appointment, Trina had me fill out a questionnaire and then brought me back to her room. She recommended upgrading from the European facial to the Vitamin C facial since it had been about 5 years since my last facial. The extra charge was $9. The room was on the smaller side, but she maximized the space well. It was a very relaxing experience. Trina was very thorough in explaining the process, what she was doing next, what to expect, etc. In between steps, we chatted and she asked about myself, my skin care routine. The hour flew by. I enjoyed it so much that I made an appointment for a facial and a micro-derm in the near future. Note, if you do both together it's a discounted rate of $100. -
Jessica’s 5-star review: I found Beauty by MH on Groupon - which EVERYONE knows is my favorite way to find new things to do/see/try. I was specifically looking for some ways to treat myself over Christmas break. I decided a spray tan was just what I needed. Megan was very responsive both through Yelp Messenger and email while trying to schedule an appointment. She text me the evening of my appointment to make sure I knew how to get to her office (note: she's upstairs). When I arrived, Megan let me know my color options (we went with Hollywood due to my hair color and skin tone). She gave me my hairnet and [optional] paper panties, and left me to strip. When she came back, she got to work. In less than 10 minutes, I was sprayed and on my way to golden brown. She made sure to wipe down my nails after so that the tanner didn't tarnish the color of my (fairly light) manicure. After getting dressed, Megan went over my after care and sent me on my way. Thanks, Megan! I will *definitely* be back. -
Jessica’s 4-star review: Every time I get a massage, I wonder why I waited so long since my last one. Awhile back, I bought a groupon for a one hour massage with Jason. About two weeks ago, I called to make the appointment. The woman I spoke with was polite, and got me all set up. I received a confirmation text, and a reminder text/email. One of the reasons I bought this particular deal proximity to my house. With that being said, I go to the Baskin Robbins downtown every so often, and never noticed Ohh La La until AFTER I had scheduled my appointment. It's sort of hidden in plain sight. I arrived a few minutes early today, and was immediately given a seat while the stylist working the floor went to let Jason know I had arrived. He brought me out a waiver and then as he showed me to the room, asked general questions about my body/health. Then we got down to business. The amount of pressure Jason used was PERFECT! I have some issues with my right side from a car accident, and I could feel the difference in pressure between the right and left sides. Once my hour was up, Jason left the room so that I could get dressed. Because I was so relaxed, I took my time returning to the lobby. I turned in my Groupon, left my tip, and grabbed one of Jason's business cards. I will DEFINITELY be back! Minus one star for music. I actually really enjoyed the selection, but I feel like instrumental / non-verbal music would make you less aware of how much time had passed. Every song that ended, I knew I was 3-4 minutes closer to finishing.
