you are right craig any training is valuable and no not all dance schools are the same. There are some fantastic people out there who do some wonderful work. One school in particular that deals with mentally disabled adults does some fantastic work and every time I am bought to tears by the happy smiles on the faces of their eldery parents as they watch their son or daughter up there onstage despite all the odds.

And on the whole most kids enjoy their experience in a dance school but what makes me so cynnical about them is the treatment that is dished out to these kids who are there to learn and for fun and enjoyment by these people who call themselves professional teachers

I have witnessed some appalling things all because the teacher sees a performance as about their work and not that of the students.
