Hmmm, what is it about the North West? I was warned. I experienced the same as @Anthony Bartlett. What a strategic (tokenistic), tacky, distasteful and terribly uncomfortable (discriminatory) experience.

Llegué poco más de diez minutos después de las 8 p.m., que es cuando empezó la clase (teniendo en cuenta que viajé desde Manchester), a la puerta principal que estaba cerrada y no había nadie para atender al timbre ni al teléfono de recepción. Tampoco es la primera vez. Peor aún, al hablar con un miembro del personal en las redes sociales, no se disculparon y empezaron a echarme la culpa. ¡Me han mentido y me han dicho que había alguien en recepción hasta las 8:30! Así que o no sé decir la hora o me ignoraron. No volveré por mucho tiempo ni recomendaré a ninguno de mis estudiantes que asista a las clases allí.

Alyx Wharmby I'm really surprised to hear your review and I can only speak of my own experience. I know that my mums income was low and Rare Liverpool stepped in and told her 'ability to perform not ability to pay' in fact encouraged to me to do more classes at their expense. I thanks to the support of many including Rare Liverpool received a full scholarship to the very prestigious Sylvia Young Theatre school. They even helped me access fund raising to move to London and I am certainly not a footballers child. I am now going to Laines with full funding after being offered 10 places and dadas. I have been lucky to have a career in tv and stage so far and again I am not a footballers child. The thing with Rare apart from the annual awards help that is given to students is kept quiet in order to protect the dignity of the students. Often the students themselves don't know they are funded you have to provide proof of income. I have seen Lyndsey and Michelle phone people to sponsor kids who on paper could afford classes but it's just not happening. As for the studios they are fab but what does a lick of paint mean 'fur coat and no knickers' springs to mind. I have seen rare pick up kids that have been let down by other schools and colleges and continually fund them. As for the child you are discussing I think that it is a sad state of affairs when children need to be bullied in this manner. She is just a child and should not be brought into this! I met this. Hold at Move It! A few years ago when Rare took to London anyone who wanted to ( they funded some too) i watched her dance in many well known teachers classes and omg she was amazing! I didn't know who she was but I knew I couldn't keep my eyes off her. The poor girl is very aware of her parents and glad that her dancing friends do not have the same attitude as you they are mature. I really feel any point you may have had becomes invalid when your jealousy/insecurity if a child is shown in this viscious manner. Agreed everywhere has problems but it's how you deal with the problems that show the calliber of a person. I thank Rare for so much including the session with Melissa they funded in order for me to master To Kill A Mockingbird which consequently led to my first Weat End production playing Jen. Again my parent is not a footballer.

To Alyx Wharmby Continuing our response your review: Quantity over quality: You're assumption on increasing income through quantity is completely wrong. We have actually reduced student numbers and increased staffing. We are controlled by the charity commission which means every single penny, decision made is orchestrated by us, a board of trustees. This information is available and completely transparent. Again we would welcome you in to discuss this further if need be Graduate teachers: The graduate teachers are in addition to our fantastic guest teachers and again we celebrate the fact that we can develop these as budding young choreographers. All graduates have trained in one of the top 5 conservoitoires in the U.K, New York and LA so bring a fresh and eclectic level of training. The are police checked, insured and are also mentored and supported by the fantastic guests you refer to along with the Directors of the school New studio; You mention that the new studio is barely used, it is actually a college building. We use this studio daily during college hours. But we prefer to keep our younger students in our main building. We are also fundraising through our charity to invest in this space to have further facilities for our students. If there is any more information you would like please arrange to come in for a chat. We value feedback and are always trying to improve our service. Some of your points are borderline potential allegations which could be tantamount to slander and we will pursue it if necessary through our legal team. If you are going to respond further to this please do it with a name. If not we will actively investigate your IP address and will take further action Regards The Board of Trustees

Trato vil y juzgón por parte de Michelle después de usarlos durante años y de ser un cliente que paga: mis maravillosas damas de la despedida de soltera fueron tratadas como basura. Diciéndome que es «no desnudez, ya sabes»; solo hacemos burlesque con ropa de buen gusto, divertida y en capas, como ya lo saben. ¡Nos echó fuera demasiado pronto! Nos trató de manera despreciable y sin ningún respeto, ¡y aun así cobró nuestro dinero! EVITA - NO LO USES - UTILIZA LIVEWIRE DANCE STUDIO o MDI en Hanover Street en su lugar. ¡NUNCA VOLVERÉ A USAR NI RECOMENDARÉ A NADIE!
