Shop Local: Ginga Futebol Academy

Although we have always only featured local businesses which we frequent ourselves, we’re making an exception this month. That’s because the only reason we haven’t used this business is because they were not in business when our kids were young. Ginga Futebol Academy has been open since 2010. It is owned by two of my dear friends, Filipe and Sarah Cameron. Ginga  provides soccer training and development for kids ages 5 through 18. At Ginga, the focus is on building a strong technical foundation in a fun and supportive environment. With small player/coach ratios and trained coaches, they have something for everyone from the beginner to the player looking to take their game to the next level! Ginga is one of a kind in Regina and if our grandkids lived in Regina, we’d want to enroll them in this Academy. Filipe is totally dedicated to making sure that all kids have a wonderful experience. Fall registrations are open now!

I encourage you to contact Ginga Futebol Academy:

Shop Local: The Perfect Fit

If you’re like me, you have alterations and/or tailoring that need to be done from time to time. It’s always a bit scary leaving your favourite clothing items with someone to cut up and alter. Well, be afraid no longer and visit Alieh Soleimani at Art Tailoring, 1230 Broad Street, in the Value Mall.

Alieh opened her business in 2006. She is a lovely person and the most amazing tailor with over 20 years experience in the field. She does custom tailoring and makes complete wedding and grad gowns, and any kind of costume.

A friend of mine recently had a sari tailored by Alieh, which turned out beautifully. She has altered numerous items for my family and we trust her implicitly. She guarantees her work and she has the most reasonable rates.

Check Alieh out at arttailoring.ca, pop her an email at info@arttailoring.ca or call her at 306-525-9009.
