The Gay Wightman School of Ballet reviews
5The atmosphere is very warm, where children can learn about acting and knowledge
This school removes negative reviews! So here I try again to share my experience of a parent whose daughter was with the school for 5 years. The owner cares about money and nothing else. When we were there my bill for concerts included cleaning? The building is old and there were days when the smell inside was so strong that it makes you gag. There is no room for parents to sit while waiting (so many times I had to sit on the floor). The two change rooms are tiny and because the classes are so full (more kids, more money!), when the older girls had to wait for their next class, the younger girls could not change because there was hardly any room. The performances were of poor quality. The owner constantly pushes extra classes (my daughter did 3), she says some are by "invitation only" but I don't believe this for a second. Almost everyone in my daughter's "basic" class was sent an invitation only email. The teachers hardly ever smile and greet the parents. The culture is awful. I would not recommend the school.
Went there, it was alright. I moved schools and i like my new one better L
My daughter has attended Gay Wightman for over 8 years since she was 3 years old. She is attending classes in a number of dance styles offered such as ballet, contemporary and musical theatre. She loves her teaches, and the commitment and attention that is given to each individual dancer is reflected in her passion and growth over the years. The teachers are dedicated and warm and train the dancers to a technically high standard. The teachers have developed my daughters skills to help her reach her full potential and they have also inspired her to work hard. She has also made some beautiful friends and we have found the students amongst all levels to be kind, respectful and encouraging. We look forward to many more years at Gay Wightman and we highly recommend them.
