Bella Star Studios

"As an adult who dances with the coordination of a new born baby giraffe, I have never had more fun in a structured environment than I have when dancing with Shaelle. I go for fun and fitness, and we have a ball. There is no pressure, lots of laughs and uplifting environment and lots of encouragement from everyone in the room. To look forward to anything after work as a busy mum speaks volumes and I really look forward to my weekly class."

"I was quite nervous about getting back into dancing after being out of it for 15 years but after joining Bella Star Studios I'm so glad I did. Shaelle always makes the classes fun, changes the style every week to cater to everyone's interests, breaks down every dance so it's easy to learn and checks in with how you are going as the class progresses. The classes are great fun and a great work out. I always feel very supported and included. They have helped me gain more confidence and try new styles I would never have attempted. I am even dancing in the mid year concert which is a big thing for me. I could not recommend Bella Star Studios and Shaelle more."

"Never been to such a caring, friendly dance school! The confidence Bella Star studios has brought out in my daughter is incredible. Worth every second & penny we spend there. Shaelle and her staff are committed to creating a comfortable, safe space for the students to feel able to express themselves through dance without judgement. I also take the adults classes which has been like a breathe of fresh air for this tired mumma! Take the class, it’s so worth it!"

"I signed my daughter up for 2 terms of dance. My daughter was moved up an age class at the recommendation of the teacher, and from then, was not engaged or encouraged to participate. She was made out to be a distraction, being the youngest in the group. She was in and out of class and the teachers did not attempt to engage her to stay (which should be noted, as they do for other children) We ended up leaving a class early and were not even contacted by Shaelle to check in and see why we had left/if everything was ok. After advising Shaelle that we were unhappy with the service and lack of encouragement and engagement - we would not be returning for the remainder of the term. I asked to be refunded for the remainder of the term and this request was refused as they "don't offer refunds" - nothing else was offered, no apology or offer to fix the issue - only that my daughter was welcome to come to the remaining classes - which of course she is because we have paid for them!! The only contact you ever receive is a request for more money! I would not recommend this dance studio. Its all money money money, that is her bottom line, and they would rather keep your money than be fair and refund if you are unhappy with the service provided."
