The studio has two rooms so two classes go on at once but you can't hear each other's music. Our Salsa teacher was amazing! He's so funny and kept our class flowing so well. They have bi-weekly Latin dance parties that you can go practice at with DJs. They also have Friday night practice nights that are free for students where they play all sorts of music. The group started with about twenty people and ended with about 14. It depends on what time of year. Summer is probably very quiet. $75/5week class is a very good price! Totally worth it.

Or it might be I don't do well learning in groups but I didn't much enjoy this one. HOWEVER we came back for private lessons to learn a wedding dance and it was awesome. Teacher was wonderfully patient and explained things perfectly clear. Worked very closely with us and made a dance we are were very happy with. Dance is not my thing but if I had to recommend a place, this would be it!

Sugar Swing is as sweet as it gets. It is fun. It is groovy. It is a blast…read more When you do join Sugar Swing Dance classes, you're not just another student in a class. You become part of a non-judgemental community - an almost exclusive swing dancing community that welcomes you with such friendliness that almost feels like home. Now, that's excellent hospitality in the making. Instructors are super friendly and professional at what they do. They offer classes to complete beginners and no partner is necessary which is a mega bonus. I have personally been taking lessons since May 2017 and have met a lot of friendly peeps. If you are afraid that you may look like a complete fool, don't worry - everyone is there to have a good time learning and bettering their swing skills. No one's got time to analyse how bad you're doing because we have all been there. Instructors are always ready to give you a tip or two which almost immediately makes one look like a pro at swing dancing. Apart from the classes they offer, they have social nights which are held on Fridays and Saturdays. These nights are open to everyone even if you have never swing danced before. They do beginners' lessons on social nights like these at 8PM followed by the official social dancing at 9PM. Again, you don't need a partner even for events like these. Just bring yourself and a big smile to the dance floor! Discounted rates are made available for both students and members of the Sugar Swing Dance Club. Another mega bonus!!! :D WIN!

I was lucky that one of the Sugar Swing dancers (I think his name was Reed) offered to partner with me and a lot of fun ensued! It sure brought back junior high phys ed and Swing Dance lessons I had taken for a few months back in high school (oh my... we're talking 15 years ago!). They had 5 members at our event and they all brought their own personality and spunk to their performances. They were definitely the perfect pairing to our Prohibition themed party and really brought the life to the party! It was a real treat, both to watch and join in on the fun! Thank you Sugar Swing Dance Club for coming out to Yelp!

It's been a while since my last visit to Marr Mac, but I have vivid memories of my experience at…read morethis dance studio. I have been studying dance since I was 5 years old (thanks, mom!), so the first thing I did when I moved to Edmonton was find a dance studio. One of my girlfriends recommended Marr Mac. I love this studio's location: it is at the back of the building occupied by Movie Studio and is very discreet. The studio itself is in the basement and consists of several large dance rooms. There are hardwood floors and wall-to-wall mirrors in every room.I signed up for musical theater, hip-hop and jazz. Additionally, there are ballet and tap classes. What can I say about the intructors? These people bring out the best in their students and make everyone believe in themselves. They are quick to provide encouraging words and to commend, and they never reprimand or discourage. There were several older women in my hip-hop class who confessed that their feelings of inadequacy upon starting the class disappeared as the classes progressed, thanks to the instructor's professionalism and encouraging words. I didn't get a chance to experience it first hand but as far as I know, Marr Mac's students get to perform onstage at various venues and to take dance trips abroad. Our musical theater teacher mentioned that once we master our routine, we will get to perform onstage. I wish I stayed at Marr Mac long enough to see this happen. Unfortunate circumstances made me stop attending this wonderful studio. I am thinking about resuming the classes very shortly.

right before the first class, they sent a text message with a video link for us to watch. The link…read moredoes not work. I sent a text back to them. They then sent us the correct video link. I watched that video while going to the school on our way. It simply shows that we need to drop off our little ones at the door. Honestly, by that time I did not realize that it's any issue. We dropped our child off and asked him to follow the teacher. I was helping my son to take out the jacket. I was not inside the school but in front of the reception area. The front desk told me in medium harsh voice that we should not "put our legs" inside the office. We need to drop the kid off outside the door. I want to note that it was heavy raining that day and from their communication it was not clear that if they will help the child to take off the jacket. Since then we just dropped off our son at the gate and left. But believe me, even though we are not getting inside the office, we were seeing that they were either very firm or harsh and telling other parents not to get into the office. Something happened at the day before the last class, after which, we decided not to send our kid to this dance school anymore. There was a parent whose child was very young, younger than ours. The mom was helping the child to get in and was saying goodbye and took a picture of her. The front desk yelled at the parent and asked her not to take picture. The parent was nice and polite. She humbly said with a smile on her face that she was not taking picture of any other kids. The parent just saw me standing outside, and told me, "not sure, why they get so upset, when we drop off our kids." I said, "I am also not sure." One of the owners saw us, jumped to us from far away and started yelling at us that we were being rude to the front desk. I just gave her a look and told her that "I was just standing outside and was listening to the parent. I did not have any interaction with the front desk." The owner said, "okay fine, then it was not you, but her...", she pointed at the other parent. Then the owner started insult the parent. The owner tried to make a point that it's against their policy to let any parent to even get inside the office room, since there is not enough space for all parents to stand there. Honestly, I completely understand that. But the other parent just told the owner that if it was so, then this should have been communicated with us before our registration. The owner as usual, yelling, shaking her hands and told the parent that this communication was sent before registration. Although it's not my headache, but I could not see the way the parent was treated. I just simply said the owner that "the communication was sent via text with a wrong link right before the class. So many parents may have missed that and the parent is right that we should have known earlier." The owner pretended that she did not listen to me or I don't exist in that space. She was looking at her phone to look for proof to insult that other parent a bit more. The parent was very upset but she kept her voice calm but firm, was trying to show her concerns. The owner then threatened the parent to take her girl away from the class, the child does not need to participate, if the parent is complaining. The parent was still calm and said, she is not complaining, she is just showing the loopholes. I then left that place. Me and my partner we both decided that even though nothing happened to us personally, but the way other parents were treated, it's completely unacceptable. We do not want to send our child anywhere where the bare minimum manner is not present. Every parent has the right to normally pick up and drop off their kids in designated area that is convenient and comfortable for the kids. It's raining cats and dogs outside and they expect us to drop the kid at the door without letting us help the child with jacket - that's not acceptable. P. S. My personal interaction over the text with this studio was very nice. And we didn't have any argument with the owner. But it's just that we don't want to support a business that humiliates other parents.

J'Adore Dance and Wellness is the home of Salsa Babies!…read more I heard about Salsa Babies when my daughter was but a wee lassie so I registered for a session. Hot tamales Batman - so much fun! The long and the short of it is a salsa/latin dance class for moms in which your baby is snuggled to you in their baby carrier. Yuppers, your baby is your dance partner! Usually classes are once a week for 10 weeks and each class is about 1 hours. It's a great way to help you lose your baby weight, make mommy friends, socialize your child and have a great time. The classes are a bit pricey, about $125. I believe you can claim this as a child fitness credit - added incentive. J'Adore Dance and Wellness also has a number of toddler and preschool dance classes and programs that help your child develop movement skills and a love for dance. I know we'll be going to more!

I like the idea of a passcard idea that I can pick and choose when I can or want to come.

I refer anyone to come and try a class, in particular a former dancer I think would really enjoy being in a studio again... But all skill levels could enjoy! Thanks so much for letting me try the studio! It was an awesome experience I'll be back!

We were then told the class would be done outside. I did not have footwear to dance outside, was worried about dancing in the grass barefoot and didn't have sunscreen on.

It is too bad as I have wanted to learn bollywood dancing for a couple of years.
