On the plus side: there are many directions, teachers dance well, friendly admins. They are trying to create warmth with heating guns and conduits in winter, coffee and tea, a bunch of changing rooms, a clean toilet. Not bad halls.
Something that I don't really like:
it's cold there anyway,
there's no subscription for 4 or 5 classes. Unfortunately, of course, this is a school for youngsters)) There's something like 16+ in almost all directions. There are no groups where, well, at least from 25 + it started, so as not to listen to the whining of youngsters, only high hills, probably, there are older girls there.
And, of course, the conveyor :), there's nothing you can do about it. Therefore, there is no lamp or friendly atmosphere. Came and went. What was, what wasn't. Sometimes it feels like you're in school. You don't get any kind of charge of energy or a positive charge. Alas.
The videos of the students on the selections are not removed after each training session so that you can see the progress. Putting a mobile phone against the wall is not an option. For children and teenagers, the atmosphere is, of course, OK, but for more adults....well...such....

Positive:
- A very, very strong staff of teachers. I want to go to everyone, but alas, time and money are not enough))
- Many destinations and a convenient schedule (I work until 18, so it was important to find interesting groups at 19-20 pm);
- Not far from the metro
- A personal account where you can keep track of the rest of the classes in the subscription
- There are lockers with keys
- Beautiful halls and lighting
- Friendly administrators (including online admins)
- Nice toilets, hehe :)
- Various kinds of activities and classes
Disadvantages (subjective):
- Thermoregulation (cold in winter, stuffy in summer, but not in all halls)
- There are sooo many people in the locker rooms
- About the feeling of a "conveyor belt" – that's right. He came, danced, left. Even if he died, no one will notice, sorry for the black humor))
- "Most of the students are teenagers and very young girls" is also true. When you're about 30 or more, it's already uncomfortable.
- There is no unlimited limit (conditionally, you pay 400 rubles and go to any groups)

A good dance school) Friendly admins, given the overall location, appearance of the halls, locker rooms, etc., are pretty good.
But still, I can't disagree with the opinion about "come and go". Perhaps there is a "family" atmosphere in youth or medium-sized (already established) groups, but personally I do not have such a feeling at all. When there are 70+ people of the same group in the chat, there are always +-45 in the classroom, even for a large hall, this is really a lot. On the one hand, I can understand the benefits of this, but it would still be much more comfortable to either form smaller groups or set boundaries by number. I understand the large number of applicants, especially to popular teachers. But, alas, the more people in the hall, the more "blurred" the result is. And if we really work for quality, not quantity, then we also need to do something about the huge flow.

A super dance school for a mass client, the organizers are trying very hard to make all the conditions for those involved. It's cool in winter, but if you are actively engaged, then this is even a plus! Everyone will find a coach to their liking and pleasant company!

The teachers are real professionals in their field. They not only have excellent command of the dance technique, but also know how to convey their love for this art to their students. Each lesson takes place in an atmosphere of positivity and enthusiasm. Coaches are always ready to help, explain difficult moments and support in difficult times.

If you are looking for a dance studio, then Elgato is the perfect choice. You can choose the desired direction and coach to your liking. But be careful, the coaches here are very cool - you can lose your peace of mind from the desire to sign up for everyone. And this choice will be the most difficult - everyone has their own zest, rich experience and their own individual vibe.
You will want to come back here again and again for another reason - at the entrance you are always greeted and escorted by friendly receptionist girls who will always tell / show everything with great desire and remind you that coffee on Thursdays is for money))).
All this creates a cozy and homely atmosphere, so for many, the studio is a cozy dance house.

Good afternoon!
I have a very big question for the school management!
Why, by creating a group where children from the age of 14 and adults can study, do you not control what happens in the Telegram channel of this group? 18+ videos are dumped there and the children are watching it, but the administrator does not react in any way. The video was dropped at 22:36, and I wrote to the manager at 10:40 the next day. I was contacted, the video was deleted, of course, but my child and I were also removed from the group very quickly.

Excellent dance studio for adults and children - cool teachers, cozy halls, groups are very friendly and, in general, the atmosphere is almost family). Cool report concerts are held for students - another great motivation for classes + experience of public speaking.

A gorgeous studio. Friendly staff, cleanliness, there is drinking water to fill a bottle with a tray, a vending machine with delicious energy drinks, which are difficult to find in Minsk. I would like to single out Olga Pavlova, the most positive coach with incredible energy and dancing skills. Love💜

A very cool dance studio, a family studio, very kind administrators meet and classes are held by cool teachers!
Everyone will find a choreographer for themselves, with their own approach, their own style and their own music!
I've been going to see Olya Filenkova for several years, mommy, my soul chose her🫶🏼

Everything is great! Starting from the entrance to the studio, the staff, the hall, the locker room with lockers and, most importantly, the delight of dancing and the coach! It's a little cold, of course, but it's treated with dancing and a bike at the beginning 🙌

Crowded classrooms, you can't see yourself in the mirror, or the coach.
You can't get into the locker room in the evening either, you definitely won't be able to change clothes sitting down.
There are no age restrictions, be ready to dance with 14-year-olds.

Cool teachers and pleasant administrators work. The studio itself is beautiful, but the building is cool in winter. One of the disadvantages is a large number of students in the classroom, sometimes there is not enough space at all, you cannot see yourself in the mirror

Dynamic youth dance studio🔥🔥🔥
Among the advantages: many directions, excellent teaching staff, a lot of positive emotions, atmospheric design, people become one team, relatively convenient location
Of the cons: poor ventilation, stuffy in summer, a lot of people, there may not be enough room in the hall for movement, there is often a crowd in the locker rooms too + there are no personal lockers (there are only in the corridor for valuables) throw things on the bench in short and go dancing

An insanely atmospheric place. The administration, teachers, students - all charge with positivity and a desire to develop further in dancing. Everyone is kind, friendly and ready to support at any time.
And what kind of halls are there… Each with its own style and mood, spacious and comfortable.
I will return there more than once, I advise everyone🙌

I'm a dancer at the beginning. of course, I went to the gurley choreo.
There were a lot of people at training, there were columns in the hall and it was not comfortable to train, I did not always see the coach and poured that I would either step on a person or hit a column.
There are no questions in the work of the coach, a very nice girl, very clearly explained and repeated the movements. The choreography was not difficult for the band and it was very exciting.
Unfortunately, I realized that the place for training was completely unsuitable for me.

I like everything, but it's very cold in the corridors in winter. The whole building is not falling off. The guys are doing what they can. But if you do not dance yourself, but wait for a child, then you need to dress very warmly

The dance school is , in principle , very good 🔥
The branch itself is pleasant, the halls are atmospheric. The reception is on the 4th floor. There are signs everywhere
The teachers are different, but everyone has an attentive approach. It is convenient that there is a universal subscription. I recommend going in different directions and deciding what the soul is all about.

+ Polite administrators;
+ Only modern trends;
+ Excellent teachers;
+ Several studios and a common room at once;
+ The opportunity to attend various classes as part of the subscription;
+ There is a discount system;
---
- Not a very convenient location in the factory building (10-15 minutes to the Proletarskaya metro station through the park with the river, it's scary for children to walk late at night);
- There are no Latin directions, but it's a pity 😢

Very nice managers at the reception! Smiling, polite. They walk into the hall with you, help you connect to the speaker, show all the light. If the room is cold, they themselves launch guns with warm air in advance. It is easy to find the school in the building by following the signs. The prices for the hall are reasonable. The halls themselves are good👍🏻

The staff is good, the halls are spacious, but the number of people in the group is simply mind-blowing. You're standing in the 5th row, you can't see anything, you're afraid to accidentally punch someone in the nose. I have been to two types of dance: jas funk and hi hilss, the coaches are normal, but I do not recommend it because of the number of people, it discourages all desire to walk.

I came there for a masterclass in the largest hall (black and white) there were about 40 of us, the hall is designed for 50, but after 45 minutes the whole floor was wet and all the mirrors were fogged up, considering that we turned on the air conditioner and wiped the floor several times, everyone was constantly falling
