Reviews of Spotlight Dance Center (Dance School)

I spent most of life growing up at this studio and I had so many amazing experiences. The teachers were so kind and taught me not only dance but life lessons. I also made so many amazing friends. Highly recommend this studio for anybody in the Burnaby area.

A supportive, creative, challenging and loving place to grow up and learn. Spotlight was a second home to me when I was young. Lots of love and gratitude to Jennifer.

Very disappointed with the studio and had a very bad experience as a parent. The show was well organized but some of the teachers were very rude and not sensitive to children's feelings. I was told to leave the change room so my 5 year old daughter was left alone. One of the parents that were present in the change room reported that my daughter started crying and no teacher attended to her and when the parent confronted one of the teachers, the response was that she always cries. And, I guess in their eyes it was a good enough reason to be so insensitive to chid's feelings. The second show for the 5 year olds was scheduled at 8:45. This is way past my daughter's normal bed time as she wakes up very early. Not really sure why couldn't it be organized in a way that considers little ones. Most little children were overtired and my daughter had very hard time. I have to admit though that the office is pretty patient with the payments as we forgot to pay for several month since they sent the requests to an email that I barely used. They did not stop my daughter from attending the lessons. Some teachers are nice but, others can be very rude and should not be teaching children behind the closed doors. Will not go back as I cannot trust that my daughter is treated well behind these closed doors and besides I'm not sure why parents cannot see class activities.

I spent the better part of 14 years of my life at Spotlight Dance Centre. To describe my experience there is hard to put into a few words but I will try. Spotlight dance centre built the foundation of who I am today. I went through my childhood and began young adulthood surrounded by teachers who supported me, challenged me and made me feel safe to be myself in dance and in life. The friendships I made while at Spotlight are gold. When you dance in a group you learn how to be a team player, how to work together creatively, how to push eachother and build eachother up. I am proud and lucky to have gone through life with my dance friends and am still very good friends with many of them today. Spotlight Dance Centre is a wonderful dance studio. The teachers are brilliant at what they do and they care, the studio itself is beautiful and welcoming and there is a variety of classes for all styles, ages, and abilities. Enrolling your child into dance class is no small decision. You work hard for your money and you want to ensure you're making the right decision. I thank my parents every day that they gave me the opportunity to dance at Spotlight. Through my training at spotlight I decided to pursue musical theater professionally. I got my undergrad at Grant MacEwan University and then my Masters at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland. I then stayed in Scotland for another 6 years performing and teaching and creating. Anyways, you don't want to hear any more about me but the point I'm trying to make is that Spotlight Dance Centre is worth it. I look forward to the day when my own children (who don't yet exist) can attend classes there and I can give the same opportunities to them that were given to me :)

This studio is wonderful, I grew up at spotlight and would not trade that experience for anything. The staff are respectful and professional. They really understand what a true dance education requires and leave an everlasting impression on their students.

Dancing at spotlight for almost 10 years was the best decision I ever made. Throughout the years I grew a second family that I will always keep in touch with, and made my best memories there. A wonderful studio with amazing teachers who helped shape me into the individual I am today. I had the best times dancing here.
