Studio Society

Negative experience: DO NOT SIGN UP. So... I bought a membership to Studio Society and was charged 34£ two weeks ago. I then tried to book classes but was not able to. Downloaded the app and could not get access to my QR code to get into the gym as it said I had no active membership. Mind you, I did get a confirmation email when I signed up and money has been charged from my account. Then I got sick and did not think about this matter for a while but recently recovered. Tried to write to them on Instagram but came back and noticed my comment had been removed. Tried emailing them but there's an automatic reply saying that they're in a liquidation process... okay? So why was I able to sign up and why did you charge me money? Why is there absolutely no information online or anywhere? Also tried calling but to no avail. Went by the gym, it looks dead inside. Would appreciate a refund and some information on the matter. Feels rather fraudulent at the moment.

Positive experience: The class itself was amazing! One of the best pilates class I've been to. The teacher was knowledgeable and explained the exercises well. However, I will not go back. 1st of all, there was an artificial room perfume diffuser that got into my lungs as I was working out, second of all there is a horrible fake screen of the sea in a room but it was also o dark like in a night club. I would probably put up with the screen but the artificial perfume diffuser is not for me.

Fantastic experience: I joined this gym because of Robin Persad. I tried his Ride class through Classpass and was immediately hooked. Robin is super motivational and makes you work hard while bringing the tunes, honestly making me question why I'd ever spend a Friday night in a club when I could just go to his Ride. Bodycombat is also an incredible class with Xandy and makes me feel so strong and powerful, and Tony's Reshape never fails to make me smile. Highly recommend. I even enjoy the virtual classes which feel like a game.

Negative experience: What a waste of money if i needed a virtual class i would do it for free on youtube! Save yourself the trouble and go elsewhere

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Studio Society either for gym workout or classes. They have a great variety of classes through the day and the strengh and cardio room has everything one would need! The team there are great and super helpful, definitely recommend

Fantastic experience: Fun and reasonably priced exercise classes with a lovely front of house team and great instructors.

Negative experience: The gym is cool but most of the classes have virtual instructor so I would recommend you to just open YouTube and do it, then there is not much of a choice of classes with instructor and they finish early. The strength studio is tiny so if there is already 2 people in there is crowded. They promise you 50% off if you invite a friend but you need to email them 20 times and they always try to avoid it , also the cancellation is hidden and impossible to find and you need to tell them 28 days in advance. My recommendation is for that price is not worth it at all.

Negative experience: As much as i love some of the instructors class which are really amazing-highly recommend Xandy and Robin, but today this gym disappointed me. Firstly, the virtual class didn’t pop up in the right time(happened to me 3 times) and I took the class which I’m not familiar with (fair enough); And then, I don’t know how the staff or team manage the time schedule, when I was taking my class, they are bunch of people came in and they said it’s gonna be their class in 5 minutes which is unfair( I just started my class for 10mins, I supposed to have at least 20mins left); Thirdly, I have talked to reception instructor about it but to be honest my day was a bit ruined because of the weak managing of this gym. And btw the Boditrax machine wasn’t working today. I really loved here because no matter what kind of weather outside this gym always lighted up my days but I wouldn’t recommend to anyone if it keeps running their business like this, it will never grow.

Fantastic experience: Jake, Amy and Robin run incredible classes!

Fantastic experience: Amazing classes and instructors - would recommend for anyone in West Hampstead!

Negative experience: Went to try this gym out and shortly after getting there I regretted it. No one to help you with any inquiry! I went to find the class I was suppose to do but had to check all the studios, when finally got to this class, the instructor was totally unprofessional and late, didn’t explain or ask if anyone was new and so I had no idea of what was happening. We then had to que to be able to use the toilet, apparently there are in common with ladies and that’s fine but for a gym this size would have thought at least 2 toilets would be needed. I wish I didn’t waist my time to go there and definitely not going back!

Negative experience: It's a yoga studio for pseudo-spiritual gym bros with neon lights and a horrible fake screen of a forrest in a room that looks like a nightclub. The layout, lighting of the room and positioning of the mats meant that I couldn't see the instructor half of the time. The 'ethnic' house music and heating system drowned out the voice of the instructor. They've spent loads on making the place look like a dystopian upper-middle class health hell but no money on the yoga mats. I was sliding about on mine and one woman didn't have a mat until halfway through when I gave her one.

Fantastic experience: Just did ABC with Robin and loved it! Super motivational and great music. I highly recommend it

Positive experience: If you’re only into classes this is a solid place - great instructors, class variety, decent equipment - the challenge is that it’s very small - only 2 free rooms & 1 spin room, so booking in advance down to a minute of opening time is pretty much the only way to get a space, which isn’t ideal if you prefer flexibility or would like to go last minute / schedule changes. Post covid, prices were literally doubled - so pricey for what it is.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Studio Society either for gym workout or classes especially the one with Federica. She is a great motivator her classes are always the best. Love the playlists and her power-focused classes. If you’ve not tried yet you simply have to.

Fantastic experience: I Love studio and, especially, I love Federica’s classes. Her energy is contagious, she makes us work hard but always with a smile. Last but not least she always plays the best workout playlists. Every time with her is so much fun!!!

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend this gym and specifically Federica's classes. She is an amazing trainer - always positive, full of energies and very professional!

Fantastic experience: Can’t rate the place highly enough, love the classes especially the yoga. Great price for this part of london and the amenities.

Fantastic experience: Great club and always a really helpful staff thank you. Spin class is good and the gym space is great

Fantastic experience: I have joined the gym last month and I really enjoy the variety of classes, the tutors seems all very nice, and I especially enjoy Federica's classes as her energy and spirit really pushes me to my limits! I always leave the studio with a smile:) Really recommend it!

Fantastic experience: Totally worth the commute from South West London! Loved the immersive studio experience and Les Mills Body Combat class this morning Very welcoming, approachable team members and great Club Manager Would highly recommend the Studio Society!

Fantastic experience: I visited yesterday to test out the gym. The manager Dan was very welcoming and enthusiastic, helping me find everything! The gym had all i needed, and the boditrax machine is extremely useful to track your progress. Overall a great and clean place, run by warm and knowledgeable people - highly recommend and will definitely return!

Fantastic experience: Great club. Really nice gym and really amazing studio classes

Fantastic experience: First time here while in London! Great place, really enjoyed the experience. Wish there was one nearer home!

Fantastic experience: Great gym, amazing classes and really lovely staff!

Fantastic experience: Fantastic club. They've got everything. Absolutely love it here!

Negative experience: Very inflexible 28 days cancellation policy. I have had to freeze my account due to a family death, and I am still expected to pay for a month that I will not be using.

Fantastic experience: I love this place. Being an older lady at a gym can be quite daunting but David has made me feel Totally welcome and at ease and Juan is a fabulous trainer. Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: The most wholesome experience for my fitness goals and my mental health. The best instructors, Mike, Natty, Jojo, Juan, Syreeta, Jake, Sofia and everyone else in the team. From classes that challenge you like HIIT and Reshape to classes like Zumba and Moonlight Meditation that leave you relaxed.

Fantastic experience: Best fitness studio by a mile! Amazing choice of classes everyday, experienced and friendly instructors and staff, clean and cool facilities. The classes are fun and cater to all levels.They are adding a new studio for weight training too which will be a welcome addition. I have been a member for a year and a bit and I can not recommend them enough. You won’t be disappointed.

Negative experience: On weekends last class with instructor is at 12pm. I went to 5 or 6 classes so far and got missed class email twice(£4 fee for missed class) even though I attended the class. Not sure whats the issue - reception staff not checking you in properly or their system. Room temperature is too cold during yoga classes.

Fantastic experience: I was very intimidated by sound of this gym but over the past 6 months I have been a member, I have felt incredibly welcomed and supported. I have never been a gym person but I have now established a steady routine of going to classes 2-3 times a week. Ramone is an excellent instructor - he is energetic and encouraging and has made me feel proud of myself during each class. Thank you!

Negative experience: If you care about your money stay away from these crooks. I registered for only one month while they charged me for a renewal contract. Scroll down and you will see I’m not the only person who had this experience with them. They’ve been charging people for nothing.

Fantastic experience: been training at studio society for over 6 years and i can safely say it’s the best place for classes in london; staff always friendly and knowledgeable and the classes variety is unbeatable - absolutely recommend it to everyone that loves fitness classes and beautiful, clean premises!

Fantastic experience: My favourite gym in London so far. The classes are unique, professional and engaging. The immersive rooms improve the experience, and the app makes bookings easier. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for something different !!

Fantastic experience: Very good gym Warm atmosphere Very good choice of classes So rare to find a concept like that !

Fantastic experience: It is a great place to exercise. It is particularly clean and quite modern. It's pretty impressive that there are so many group lessons that you can get motivated. The instructors are very well educated and energetic.

Fantastic experience: Been a member since 2019 and love the variety. Spin, Hiit, yoga, zumba, bare, pilates, Les Mills… all sorts of classes to choose whatever you just feel like on the day. Also loved the summer outdoor classes with Ramone :) Staff is very friendly and helpful, the facilities are good- locker rooms include hair dryers and hair straighteners. It’s a monthly subscription for unlimited classes so if you’re coming in regularly, it’s a great value for your money.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been to Studio Society 3 times and have loved every class! The studio atmosphere and instructors have fab energy and I love the virtual backgrounds. The equipment is great (Les Mills) kit and so are the facilities and location!

Fantastic experience: I've tried numerous spin and fitness studios over the past year and this is by far the best. The staff are very professional and the variety of classes on offer allow you to easily diversify your training, all under one roof. The studio space itself is second to none. A really friendly atmosphere, I've made some great friends.

Fantastic experience: I love this place. I started going there almost 3 years ago and I have been hooked. The place is clean and the studios are well equipped. Staff are very friendly, professional who motivate and push you to do your best. I love spinning and yoga especially when you have Silva teaching yoga, she’s amazing I would recommend anyone going here.

Fantastic experience: This place is so gorgeous but the people there are so amazing and kind!!! The staff are so great and so motivational and positive!!! This is such a friendly environment!!

Fantastic experience: Nice club with a very friendly and professional stuff. It is in my close proximity. Have been covering a couple of classes there in the past few years. Always left with positive experience. Wish all members and stuff a great 2023!

Fantastic experience: One of a kind gym with lots of classes to choose from and a truly immersive experience. Most importantly, the owners, staff and every single coach are absolutely the best people, and once you visit a few times, you get a sense of community and belonging. Can't wait to be back in the new year! <3

Fantastic experience: The most amazing place in the whole sports world, honestly. Great teachers, amazing vibes and the most immersive feeling that you will ever experience in the gym ;)

Fantastic experience: Absolutely love this gym! From the choice of classes, amazing instructors, friendly staff, responsive management and clean facilities - the immersive environment is just a bonus! When I moved back to London from New York I was worried I would not be able to find a studio that could match the diverse work outs I was used to. But finding Studio Society has surpassed all expectations, and at a very reasonable price! Would highly recommend to anyone who loves the motivation of group classes and the flexibility to change up their workout throughout the week.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member here for just over a year now and absolutely love it! I was never previously into my fitness until I joined and finally found myself enjoying exercise- the classes are really engaging and make you want to keep coming back!!! Massive improvements in my weight control and general fitness! Also the team are so friendly and become your gym family which keeps your motivation going! I would 10/10 recommend and looking forward to continued classed over 2023- happy new year!

Fantastic experience: I have been a member now for three years and just love this gym! The range of classes is great, I can sometimes do up to three classes a day. Great instructors and friendly staff.

Fantastic experience: Rode Robin - best spin in London…. Would love to see more spin classes of his and at better times!

Fantastic experience: An amazing gym, everytime I’m here I feel welcomed and impressed with the amount of classes on offer. The perfect for gym for those who love group classes whilst enjoying an immersive workout experience. If you’re looking for a hidden gem it’s studio society would highly recommend to anyone!

Fantastic experience: Great place, amazing stuff and instructors

Fantastic experience: A really great local gym, with excellent classes and professional trainers. The studio is spacious and the immersive rooms are awesome. The staff are friendly and there is a good vibe. I was sad to leave, but would highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for a class based gym - the classes are up there as some of the best

Fantastic experience: I went there for a trial and is one of my favorite Fitness studios in London. Loved the yoga class with the full moon background…was so dreamy Also the staff so friendly and helpful! There should be more Studio Society around London, wish I could live closer to be able to join

Negative experience: Luckily for them they have a very good Zumba instructor and for HIIT once a week, but the app is one of the worst apps I’ve seen as it’s have a lot of computer bugs and at list once a week you will get from them a charge of £4 and they will block you from booking classes even if you couldn’t cancel cause the app wouldn’t let you cancel it, and they have more virtual classes than a real classes. For me it’s got to a very disappointed situation.

Fantastic experience: One of the best gym in London!

Fantastic experience: Great classes and instructors

Fantastic experience: Hands down my favorite studio! I do yoga, pilates, hiit, body pump and Studio Society is the perfect place to get all the classes in one place. Try Natty's and Ramone's classes, you will thank me later ❤️

Positive experience: A good gym, with friendly staff, great classes and clean equipment. I did encounter an issue due to a membership that hadn't been cancelled properly by their staff and random class cancelation fees, but good/effective customer service more than made up for it. Would recommend, but keep/save written communications with this gym just in case.

Fantastic experience: Amazing instructors and staff. Great selection of classes at convenient times. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: I have been going here for years and now I have to leave because I am moving away - but I have made life long friends here and met great people while working on my fitness. Great place, great people and great results IF you put the work in! ;)

Positive experience: Great gym, the trainers are great - Candice, Chris, Ramone, but a special mention to Liam whose workouts always leave me trembling. A bit expensive, but I would recommend

Fantastic experience: My favourite studio in London, my best and most spiritual connections through yoga have been experienced here:) wish there was a studio in East London where I now live!

Fantastic experience: Totally smitten by this place! It is by far the best gym I have ever come across and I feel very lucky to live across the road from it! I highly recommend anyone to take advantage of the free trial class and the discounted first month - you will not look back! Exercise has always felt a chore to me and I've never really enjoyed it, so I am amazed that because of these guys, and finally at the age of 44, I find myself buzzing looking forward to each class, and feeling on top of the world afterwards. It is so much fun! I am so happy that I saw their sign and took up the free class / popped in for a look around a few weeks ago on a whim. The membership is appropriately priced and the set-up / cancellation policy is great. Also their app is very well designed and makes it really easy to book and keep track of classes. The gym is gorgeous - super slick and smart, amazing facilities, extremely clean, smells divine, has sophisticated low lighting (very clever!) and mesmerising immersive projections on the walls of the expansive studios - which makes it feel a real luxury cut-above the sweaty, smelly, starkly-lit, experience often found at a gym. The range of classes is incredible and for the perfect length of time, at brilliant and convenient times, and extremely high-quality teaching, even when it is someone who is doing cover for a class. But the best thing by far and the reason I decided to sign up and keep going, is the people, including fellow members who have been nothing but lovely and supportive. There is none of the intimidating snootiness here! Everyone is fully of good energy with great vibes all round, which is the best experience post-pandemic! The hugest thank you to the awesome instructors and staff who are the nicest, friendliest, most welcoming and encouraging people I've ever come across in a gym environment, who also just happen to be amazing instructors too as well as great people. I've been so impressed by their warm and personal approach, and genuinely look forward to seeing them when I go in. In particular, a huge shout out to Natty (I am still in shock that I love Ride after hating Spin! Thank you for persuading me to try it!), Tony, Chris, Ramone and Syreeta - thank you so much for all your help and smiles. You guys totally rock!! Love this place!!

Fantastic experience: This is the best gym if you want a good variety of classes and a lot of flexibility on the time. Super fun courses and amazing instructors. I definitely recommend Studio Society!

Fantastic experience: The best workout/spiritual experience you could ever get. The variety of classes is amazing, the instructors are the nicest people I've ever met in my life, the studio screens are so creative and the music is TOP! I feel lucky to have found this place.

Negative experience: The most disgustingly behaved people I have ever met a lot of bullying and victimisation towards innocent people. A proper bunch of crooks. Avoid this place at all costs.

Fantastic experience: Brilliant Classes. Done a weeks worth of classes now with Ramone as the instructor. Enjoyed every one of them with him. He's very helpful and comes round to make sure your doing the technique correctly. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: I'm in love. I've just joined two weeks ago, but it's been magic ever since. The variety of classes - amazing, giant studio - yay, super pleasant instructors - check, tidy and thought through changing rooms - also there! Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: This is by far the best studio I been to, the staff is super friendly and helpful. Can't recommend it enough.

Fantastic experience: A fantastic boutique gym. The studios are massive for London and with a good diversity of classes this is definitely a great gym to visit.

Fantastic experience: I had bought a membership unintentionally, even though it was clear in the welcome email that I would have been charged monthly (and double the first month price). Tony has been very helpful and issued a refund the day after.

Fantastic experience: Love it! So glad I joined :)

Fantastic experience: It’s supposed to be 10 stars!!! (And shout out to Natty!)

Fantastic experience: Love this place! Shoutout to Ramone - top lad and best instructor! Great classes, super facilities, worked up a good sweat. Props to the team for getting me in shape

Fantastic experience: Love this place ❤

Fantastic experience: My favourite gym by a long way. Studio Society excels in group classes, with a great combination of classes delivered by trainers, video, and immersive content. I found it easy to book at quiet times, with even the busiest classes not too crowded. They get the basics right too, with clean facilities, great air conditioning, amazingly friendly staff and a feel-good atmosphere every single time I went. Unfortunately I no longer live nearby, and I'll miss the studio a lot.

Fantastic experience: This is by far the best quality gym around at an affordable price. Definitley recommend!

Fantastic experience: Really good well organised studio / class based gym. Great for someone like me who needs exercise in my schedule rather than saying I will go when I have time.

Fantastic experience: I recommend to everyone to try the free trial at Studio Society, as this is how I became a member despite hating gyms as such (you will just get hooked unwillingly, as they are so good!). I get it, why they are called Studio Society, as its one warm, welcoming place with modern, clean cut & top quality studio facilities. There is a huge selection of classes, and most importantly, their instructors are next level, hat off to them (check out classes of Alex, Andrea & Ramone, my favorites!) And last perk, they have an ever changing virtual wall projections in studios, super friendly reception and a great music to add to the experience. Only one in London!

Fantastic experience: Really enjoying the immersive classes so far. The virtual backdrops make for such a unique environment. It feels like you're working out in an IMAX.

Fantastic experience: Brilliant gym with a great variety of classes, good instructors and very nice facilities (projector walls and other immersive tech). Really enjoy doing yoga here with Claire.

Fantastic experience: Love it down here, thank the lord for Air Con Great staff too Get me on instagram... @freestylephotography_uk ✌

Fantastic experience: Great studio, & really friendly staff

Positive experience: Great classes and have a great variety of workouts! Stuff are always friendly and the place is clean!

Fantastic experience: I've been using the facilities at Studio Society since they started approx 3 years ago, however have to give up my membership as I'm moving away from the area. As someone who despises gyms, I can report that this is the best fitness experience I've ever had. Superb atmosphere, top quality facilities, always impeccably clean, great staff and challenging classes! The energy here is addictive!!

Fantastic experience: Hands down the best spin class experience I've ever had! Getting fit now feels possible and fun! My friend dragged me along to Andrea's eclectic class this morning and wow. Firstly it's all ground level so super accessible! All the fitness experts and receptionist were so welcoming! The class experience was dramatically elevated by seeing my avatar on the virtual screen.

Fantastic experience: I've been a member of other gyms before but I'm always lost as to what I should do when there are no classes available. I decided to try Studio Society due to a large selection of classes. One month in, and I'm really happy going there. Cleanliness and nice-smelling spaces are also a bonus. Plus, the studios where the classes are held are really amazing!

Fantastic experience: Studio society is such a great gym! The staff are always so welcoming and friendly and it has a real community feel. I've been going for nearly two years and would recommend to all that's looking for a great place to do classes and meet new people.

Fantastic experience: Went to try out Andrea’s Sunday morning class and loved it! Liked how the class was short (30 minutes spinning and 20 minutes core) but intense! Will definitely sign up. Management was super welcoming and the gym held really high standards. Great place :)

Fantastic experience: Discovered studio society and Syreeta was the best thing ever happened last year. No looking back,excellent instructors and booking system so easy to navigate. Thank you

Fantastic experience: Surely one of the best studio I have been to! Very professional and friendly staff ! Great clean facilities !

Fantastic experience: Best place to combine sport & unique experience with the immersive rooms. Amazing and various classes, plus trainers and staff are always friendly and motivating ! (And facilities are always clean which is really appreciable !)

Fantastic experience: Studio Society is just what you're looking for if you want high quality workouts, a ton of variety (from spin to floor barre, HIT to yoga), friendly and professional instructors and amazing value for money. I have been a member since they started and it has played a huge part in keeping me healthy and feeling good! The variety is one of the biggest draws for me, as it keeps working out fun and interesting, and also keeps challenging different muscles and helping gain new skills (e.g. cardio fitness vs balance). The virtual surroundings create an awesome atmosphere, allowing you to get in the zone for each workout. Absolutely top-notch, best gym membership I've ever had.

Fantastic experience: First visit step by step! Greater with a smile by Renata then explain the current offer and showed around this magnificent space! I was very impressed already. Then signed up for Body Pump classes that was absolutely packed (believe it or not I was shocked) that passed within first minute of the classes as the trainer was amazing and you could tell she was enjoying working out as well! Surprisingly straight after was another class back with Renata the one from the door! ABS, what a blast of energy. I literally didn’t wanna leave this place at the end informed that maybe I wanna relax on yoga? Clair here knows what she’s doing! One of the best yoga instructors I had on my path! I’ve literally just closed my eyes and follow her voice forgetting about my busy day. Seriously this place is so awesome I could live in there! Other gyms are far far away, the walls with projectors do the job transferring you into a different world depends on the classes. MIND BLOWING! After all of those sessions on departure James said by and offered himself in case of any questions or doubts, but believe me NO DOUBTS WHAT SO EVER! Studio Society is AWESOME!

Fantastic experience: First time I've been truly motivated! Studio Society is a studio only with classes. Studio Society has a huge variation of classes where everyone, from beginner to expertcs, can keep up, moreover is the staff every inspiring. Opposite to the regular gyms I've been a member of, it's a pleasure to hit the morning classes and kick start the following day with a spin class or body workout with a motivating instructor! Normally I don't posses that great amount of self-discipline to have more than one or two workout in the same week (if that even happens) but Studio Society, the instructors and the set-up defiantly changes everything - I will recommend this too everyone

Positive experience: Great place clean & good atmosphere. But you need more staff on the door one won’t do the trick I waited nearly 30 mins as one staff was resolving something with someone. 2. Too expensive for me to just attend once a week (Melvin’s classes) if they had more I would be there in a heartbeat as I’m sure a lot of people would . There was a group that spoke to Manager about Melvin having more classes it was said they were looking into having more of Melvin’s classes but till today nothing

Negative experience: The gym is great. BUT BE AWARE, if you get involved, you will be signing up to a Direct Debit with “Harlands”. I cancelled my direct debit in accordance with the contract. They took the money anyway. I claimed under the direct debit guarantee. They are now disputing that I ever cancelled (despite two emails in their inbox from me) and asking for the money. The gym may be great, but it isn’t worth it to have to be involved with these crooks. I am not facing having to make a claim against them in the small claims court for the money they are trying to steal from me. BE CAREFUL ABOUT SIGNING UP, unless you are willing to pay direct debits after you no longer wish to use the service and have cancelled in accordance with the terms of the contract.

Fantastic experience: I've been a member for over a year and I’m so glad I joined. There’s so many different classes throughout the day including spin, Pilates and barre, hiit and strength and you can do as many as you want for a pretty reasonable monthly fee. The staff are all so friendly and the studio is very clean and hi-tech. Would recommend anyone to join!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member for just over a year and really enjoy many of the classes on offer. New classes have been added on a regular basis so things are fresh and often something new to try out. When I had a problem with my account it was quickly rectified with no problems and Tony made sure none of my booked classes were affected. Most of my classes are with Tony, Ramone and more recently Alex. I often take part in the spin, HIIT and boxing classes which I love. They are highly skilled and each class they deliver is motivating and challenges each member there. As a result I definitely feel stronger and better in myself. The only comment I could add is that I’ve noticed that only the poor reviews have been responded to. I think it would be nice for the great reviews to be acknowledged too- especially for the instructors working hard at the club. Studio society is well worth the membership- give it a go!

Fantastic experience: Came here with one of my girlies and did HIIT the Barre – such a fun concept. And lovely teachers
