Step up is really a very cool dance studio, there are many different directions and teachers, the studios are very conveniently located, so it's very convenient to get there
Teachers try to find an approach to each student, everyone always explains the material in detail, which will be understandable even to a beginner who has never danced.
I've only been walking for 6 months, but I've already seen good results, made a lot of new friends, attended parties and master classes (Katya, thank you for organizing this and bringing top choreographers)
Step up is a family where you will be supported, so everyone can come here, even those who have never danced.
From the good:
- It's convenient to get to the studio
- Several halls, all close to the center
- A variety of styles – jazz-funk, hip-hop, gurley, twerk, etc.
- There are a couple of good teachers (in particular, Daria and Ekaterina)
- A personalized approach, let's say. If you go to a group more or less constantly, the teacher remembers your name, corrects your movements in class, etc.
- Very reasonable prices
Now out of the negative. Oh boy, where to start.
- A huge constant turnover of teachers
- Teachers recruit girls who have been dancing for a year or two on their own. I would like to remind you that the ability to reproduce movements is not equal to the ability to dance, is not equal to the understanding of musicality and is not equal to the ability to teach
- The level of teachers' choreographies is weak (for the reason, see the previous paragraph)
- The school's policy is quite aggressive. They constantly get into some kind of conflicts with other studios and teachers, and even with students. I don't want to look at the Instagram of either the school or the teachers – the constant toxicity, how bad everyone is around, and only this school and its head are good. I have a very negative impression.
- In my opinion, they position themselves as the best school in Minsk for absolutely no reason. Well, honestly, guys, not at all. No, no, and no again.
- There is no division into levels, everything is mixed in a pile
- Stories constantly writes that "a new band is starting from scratch," although in fact, this band has been going on for a long time, but it's just the beginning of a new WEEK, not the start of the band.
In general, you can walk, but the disadvantages are significant.
The Step Up team has a professional, friendly, youth-oriented and charming teaching staff who are passionate about their work, constantly growing and developing 💪🔥🫶 I found my own among the many interesting and modern trends and now I'm getting high with the guys from Step Up. I've been practicing for several months in a group of beginners together with experienced dancers, looking at whom you strive to be no worse, as a result, progress is on your face, I didn't even expect myself to be able to dance like this, and support My teacher is simply priceless🙏😊♥️ This is a special, atmospheric place where you discover and improve yourself under the guidance of the best, creative and creative teachers.
