    If Icould give minus 5 stars?? I would give, previously I made a post, saying that the site is overpriced, they charge you a member fee that does not include anything, they do a recital at the end of the school year, (it is not mandatory) but who is going to practice for a whole year and in the end they don't participate in the recital, even if they don't participate they basically lose a portion of the class and money because they take part of the class to practice the recital. Which I repeat is overpriced, they sell you the recital package that includes the t-shirt for the end of the show and the digital video of the show. But for parents who pay for 2 classes are 2 shows, that's fine, I decided to pay him, it's my decision. but in the end when it was time to pick up the shirt for the end of the show, they only give you 1 when they charge you for 2, in my case 2 shows, I imagine the same thing happens with parents who pay for 3 or more shows.The fee I'm talking about is charged months before the end of the year. whether to know if the child is going to return or not.But the most serious thing in my case, the stuff didn't like my post and they want to force me to delete my post, or else they won't accept my daughter. This post is personal and does not reflect the opinion of my daughter. so they violate my constitutional right granted in the first amendment and also discriminate against my daughter for my opinion.Do not trust the qualification on ****** of this academy because if they did it to me, threatening to remove the post, maybe other parents too, just so that their daughter is happy and can practice what our children like.I have proof

    Hi ****, Ms. **** here the ownerThank you for sharing your thoughts and concerns about your experience with our dance studio. We understand that the cost of dance classes is an important consideration for parents, and we strive to be transparent about our pricing structure. We would like to clarify that the fees we charge are essential for maintaining the quality of our dance program and providing the best possible experience for our students.

    I would like to address your recent attempt to re-enroll your child in our dance studio. We believe that every child deserves a positive and enriching dance experience, and it's our responsibility to ensure that our classes align with the expectations and goals of our students and their families. After careful consideration, we made the difficult decision not to proceed with re-enrollment in this case.

    Regarding the matter of constitutional rights, it's important to note that private entities, like our dance studio, have the ability to establish policies and guidelines that ensure the safety, comfort, and positive experience of all our students and families. While we aim to create an inclusive and welcoming environment, certain policies are in place to maintain the overall integrity of our studio and its programs.
    It's important to us that our dance studio provides a supportive and rewarding environment for all students. While we respect and value the feedback we receive from our dance community, we also need to ensure that our studio is the right fit for both the student and our team.

    We understand that your experience with us was not entirely satisfactory, and we sincerely apologize for any disappointment you may have felt. However, we must also consider the overall dynamics of our dance classes and the wellbeing of our entire dance community.

    We wish you and your child the very best in finding a dance studio that aligns more closely with your expectations and needs. We hope that you find the dance experience you're seeking.
