Alexandra School of Dancing is a traditional ballet school with a friendly atmosphere welcoming children from 18 months to adult. Tap and modern dance classes are also taught helping develop children's musicality, co-ordination and motor skills. Dancing helps children come alive and bring out their natural rhythm, along with encouraging interaction with other children.
The school studies the I.S.T.D. exams which are accredited on the National Qualifications Framework (NQF), for England, Wales and Northern Ireland. All exams are at the discretion of the teacher as the standard is very high indeed and often requires extra classes a week to ensure that the standard is reached.

Maggie Kudirka ,was 23 years old abald ballerina..
The fact that Magda believes that long hair is a requirement to be a ballerina ,is to me a testament of her ignorance.
To then proceed to make reference to the child's feet .. as if it was impossible to dance if you were black!! How about Misty Copeland, aurther Mitchell ??????
The actions towards this child were disgusting.. your business should seize to exist..
If you were sincere then you would have called for a meeting to discuss and rectify the issue at hand.

Several time Magda made nasty comments about my daughter's hair. 1 time I braided my daughter's hair and she said to me. "Make sure tie her hair tight next time because it is distucts other children. Another aucasion my daughter brought her doll and she said "your doll has more hair than you. All this time I just ignored her comments to maintain professional boundaries. The other time she said " your daughter has such ballerina feet for a black child, some black children struggle"
October 2018 I missed payment and my daughter had missed few classes coz I went away to burry my father. Magda

My 4 year old daughter attended a Saturday class where the kids could have "fun" and a bit of free style ballet dancing. There was a 2 week free trial, which was helpful. The classes themselves were ok. The staff and the main teacher of the school in particular were not very welcoming nor approachable. I imagined that if you was working with young kids that you'd have the social skills to do so. Their approach towards parents was also quite unprofessional (e.g complaining about unpaid invoices via memos in unprofessional language).
After 20 weeks, my daughter found the classes a bit repetitive
