    This was a worthwhile class! We ended up being the only people signed up, which was actually awesome because it was personalized. While it says "couples massage," I wouldn't have minded just going with a girlfriend because it wasn't geared necessarily towards couples; it was more you just need a partner to learn with. I would have liked to know that we were going to use oils directly on our skin and be undressed under a towel. I recommend that class and you walk away with useful techniques.

    There were a couple unpleasant financial hiccups, perhaps due to imperfect communication between the Discovery Center and Dabble:
    - Apparently buying the class on Dabble reserves *two* spots with the Discovery Center. So my partner and I accidentally paid double what we should have.
    - On top of that, at the end of the class the teacher asked for a $20/couple "materials fee" that was not mentioned anywhere in the communication we got from Dabble or the Discovery Center.

    In addition, the class started almost fifteen minutes late, so the instructor had to rush through the last bit of the instruction and skip teaching us certain techniques.

    The instructor Amy (I don't know her last name) was not my favorite. She seemed tired, or bored, or something. My favorite "wtf?" moment from the class was when she spent a full minute reading us all of the text printed on her bottle of massage cream.
