[danceismything2]

this is stupid

studios should be choosen by if you feel comfortable with the surrounding and if everyone is nice

not the flooring

@danceismything2 actually no. The floor is really important. If the floor is rough and sticky by normaly will cause students feet to hurt and make it difficult to do spins and moves. If they fall theyd get hurt more seriously too. If the floor is to slippery students can bump into eachother,fall,even break bone!!! The floor does affect ballet dancers dance in a dramatic way!!!!

People seem to forget that Ballet once used to be taught in local church halls without full length mirrors. I have danced for 14 years in rented school rooms and church halls and gained high Distinctions in every examination.

It's the quality of the teaching that matters not the studio.

Actually what parents should think about when choosing a ballet class is that the child will be happy, not whether they will have a long dancing career.

I agree that a child should be happy in their class, but they should also be given the option to have a long career by being put in a studio where they can dance on a proper floor.
