Expressions Dance Academy 10A Ashby Road, Markfield LE67 3LA

"I have two children who attend expressions for ballet,tap,modern and drama. Both girls really enjoy coming every week and have really grown in confidence since they joined over a year ago. Keep up the good work ladies!!"

"Both of my children attend Expressions, taking part in ballet, tap, modern, streetdance, acro and musical theatre. They both absolutely love the classes and enjoy having the opportunity to learn new skills, take exams and perform on stage. They both actually miss it if it is shut for the holidays!!! They say the teachers are friendly, the atmosphere in the classes is really friendly and fun, and they have both made some good friends by attending the school. As a parent I enjoy watching them develop and grow into more confident and happy individuals, watching them better themselves whilst also having fun doing activities which are healthy both physically and mentally. The production that the whole school puts on every two years is the icing on the cake, it is an amazing opportunity for the children to showcase how much they have learnt. Both my children love learning all the new dances, reading scripts and all the extra rehearsals - and even the running around like headless chickens between costume changes - to have the reward of performing to a packed theatre for 3 shows. The classes are 100% excellent value for money, and seeing them grow and the smiles on their faces is priceless. Keep up the good work Expressions. S.Cleobury"

"Total chaos!! I rang and left numerous messages and emails none of these were returned, so as my daughter was so excited I decided to just turn up with her, what a BIG mistake that was, the lack of communication from this academy should have been a BIG clue, It was total chaos when we got there I was told to complete enrollment form which I was told was to be found in their shop, in the shop the lady behind the counter got out a folder full of scruffy bits of paper and gave me a how did you hear about us form!! I said wrong form she said they didn't have any enrollment forms so handed me a tatty bit of cardboard and said put your details on that. I was informed I had to leave my daughter she is only 4 and this being her first time I was very uneasy about this but there was no compromise on this and as she was so excited I didn't have the heart to take her out there and then, I have never felt so uneasy in my life so my husband decided to go and collect her at the end of the hour it was total chaos yet again, my husband just walked straight in picked our daughter up and walked straight out with NOBODY stopping or questioning him, so to end if you don't mind your child being thought of as £'s then this is the place for you and obviously you have no qualms about any tom, dick or harry collecting them then this is your kind of place but not ours, this should be renamed Shambles and Chaos dance academy."
