AM withheld instruction to try to sell more classes.
Horrible.?My husband and I went there with the goal of learning to dance for our daughter's wedding. We purchased 4 lessons (45 minute) for $500 and got little from it.?1. A good 10 minutes of each lesson was devoted to trying to sell us a Bronze package for $5000, which I believe was 40 more lessons. So we were effectively paying them to deliver a sales pitch to us.?2. We were given 15 minutes on one dance and then another 15 or 20 of another. Overall we were taught the basic steps for up to 3 different dances per session rather than learning and solidifying a single dance at a time. It was difficult to keep it straight or to know what dance to do to what songs.?3. There was a lot of false flattery. Each time that I went there I was told how wonderful I looked. After a while it came across as insincere.?4. The instructor acted as if she was teaching children or prepping high school kids for a big game. Lots of hand slapping, hugging and insincere closeness, when what we wanted was a professional dance instructor. ?5. They were deliberately withholding instruction as part of the ploy to get us to sign up for more classes. Part of this was teaching us dances that we would never use such as the Polka and the Quick Step. Little time was devoted to waltz, fox trot, swing and other dances appropriate for our event.??I would not recommend anyone to go there.
