There are many rumors surrounding SWS. It is quite unbelievable what some will say in order to detour people from making their own choices and or getting the correct information. Don't believe everything you hear! Get out there and see for yourself what SWS is all about!
The TRUTH about SWS:
-SWS PUTS EQUAL ENERGY INTO OUR RECREATIONAL TEAM! We have a Recreational Director who over sees the entire Recreational Program stay tuned for more info about this.... and our Recreational dancers have their very own yearend performance! Some of our instructors for our recreational program are straight from So You Think You Can Dance!
-WE ONLY HAVE ADULT INSTRUCTORS FOR BOTH OUR RECREATIONAL LEVEL AS WELL AS COMPETITIVE!
-WE DO NOT HAVE WEIGH INS This rumour is ridiculous.
-WE HAVE DIFFERENT LEVELS NOT EVERYONE IS AS ADVANCED AS THE NEXT So many are afraid they would not make the SWS competitive team however this is because they are not aware we have MANY different levels of competitive!
-WE BELIEVE BEING A GREAT PERSON FAR OUTWEIGHS WINNING HOWEVER WE EXPECT NOTHING LESS THAN THE STUDENTS VERY BEST People will often forget a great dancer but NEVER forget when someone is good to them.
-WE DO NOT FAVOR STUDENTS All students get routines and praise as deserved. All the instructors ask if that students work to their fullest potential.
-OUR COMPETITIVE STUDENTS HAVE A SCHEDULE OF 3 DAYS A WEEK ANY MORE THAN THAT IS THE FAMILIES CHOICE
Anyone that believes that SWS doesn't have a fun friendly atmosphere...
has never seen Sasha participate with the kids in a pool relay race.
Anyone that believes SWS only cares about winning...
has never heard Mandy and Sasha saying "Being a great dancer is wonderful but if you are a great person you will always be remembered."
Anyone that believes SWS's recreational team is expensive ...
has never seen our price chart where the average per class can be as low as $5.50!
Anyone that has been told the SWS competitive team is too expensive..
has never had a meeting with Sasha to discuss how many routines they wish to do (How many routines you do is the families decision SWS does not force families to do more than they can afford. Some dancers stick with the base amount of 3 routines and others do more.. it's really up to you!) The program itself is approx $6 per class and there are ONLY competitive students in the class. This is an unbelievable price!
Anyone that believes being tough on a student isn't the way to teach..
has never read the write ups from the graduates to the directors in the SWS yearbook.
Anyone that believes SWS is scary..
has never seen the Artistic Directors at the annual Christmas Party.. last season Artistic Director Mandy was a french magician and Artistic Director Sasha hosted dressed as Santas helper!
Anyone that believes they are not good enough to be accepted to SWS...
has never met with Sasha to discuss our different levels.
Put the rumours to REST!
Whenever you hear a rumour about SWS ask yourself ..
Why would this person speak poorly of SWS??
am I hearing this from someone who just didn't get their way??
am I hearing this from someone who wouldn't want me to get the correct information??
and
Don't believe everything you hear!! Find out for yourself!! Come and see for yourself what SWS is really like!

To anyone reading this .....As a parent at SWS I am proud to speak up on behalf of this studio! Switching to this studio was the best decision we ever made! The skilled teachers and team atmosphere helped our son to become a successful dance professional! There are many bumps along a road to success but NEVER let rumours decide things for you! Always go out and see for yourself!
ReplyDeleteYou wouldn't believe the things my family was told by people including our previous studio owner! Looking back I know they just didn't want us to leave where we were.. I am thankful each and everyday when I walk through SWS's doors that we didn't take the comments at face value and we found out that nothing of what we heard was true! My daughter could not be happier!
ReplyDeleteI too was told many different things by different people however...here we are and couldn't be happier!!! Thank you SWS for not only accepting my child with open arms but for teaching her the important fundamentals of a dancer....!!!
