My DD4 has been at the same huge dance school for 6 years (she is nearly 10). She practises this style of dancing 3 times a week and I pay £90 a month for this..There are 20 all together in DDs class in 3 different tiers depending on ability.The top tier practises 3 times a week and the others twice a week.They typically do about 4 comps a year (which you dance individually for) and 2 shows which are a group routine.
They have a new instructor who has come from a different club with her 2 daughters and 4 other girls.The trouble is she is only really interested in her own kids and to a lesser extent the other 4 (her friends kids)
With the old instructor they all did a group routine in shows which was great.When the new teacher came she changed things so that the new 6 were at the front all the time and the others were off stage or very much in the background doing things any primary school aged child could do!.They have just started working on the next show and it is clear that it is going to be the same.My DD says she doesn't want to do it.It involves lots of extra rehearsals and £££ for costumes entry fees etc .The instructor has asked why.I am tempted to tell her the truth, but I know she will take it badly.WWYD?
