What to avoid in Broadway Dance Center

So after a summer of taking dance classes at Broadway Dance Center, I have composed a personal list of things to avoid...

1.) Jumps and Turns Class!

The level may be listed as advanced but dancers beware! There will be all levels taking this class. Apparently several people want to just learn how to turn and jump like they do on SYTYCD and think this class will do this immediately for them regardless of the level of the class. The class I attended was as follows:

*The real teacher was 40 minutes late, her assistant led a "follow-along" stretch that was way to fast and pointless.
*The class was packed like a sardine can...including several people who didn't find it necessary to use deodorant...vomit!
*The teacher talked down to us when we didn't do the exercise full-out behind her while she was introducing it...
*I probably got punched in the face and stomach 9743958734 times during class.
*The combinations were big in directional changes...not so great for those novice jump/turners....
*The teacher highly praised a young woman for doing a "beautiful triple turn" on the right (without seeming to notice the bent supporting leg, the uneven arms, and the absence of a spot) and it was funny to watch the girl on the left side falling out of a single...
*The teacher's name was Ginger...avoid like the PLAGUE!

2.) Classes that require wristbands

If the person signing you in reaches for a wristband, switch your class immediately! Wrist band classes are overpacked. No matter what you think, you will NOT be able to see the teacher. You will NOT get much from the class, except some bruises from getting hit by dancers around you from the lack of space.

3.) Classes with several foreign people.

I know I sound like a horrible person! I love Europeans, I really do! I just don't think it's fair to have to take dance class with the ones that don't wear deodorant. I always feel faint by the end of class, the BO is unbelievable.

4.) Classes that visiting dance studios have over-run

If you see several little munchkins wearing Dazzling Dance Studio sweatshirts, shorts, socks, anythings please take a different class. It is great that they are coming to enjoy the city and better themselves in dance class. However, they believe that they are going to be fine in a higher-level class and what ends up happening is the teacher will spend the entire class correcting them so they don't injure themselves too terribly...
