Marr-Mac is a lovely centrally located dance school with a wondrous owner, dedicated staff, four large studios and rental options (when we get out of the lockdown).
My daughter has done the bollywood class at Marr-Mac and her teacher was AMAZING. Very understanding of her ability and patient. Both of my children have done previous classes here as well and their teachers have been really great and friendly. However, that being said, the parking situation at this location is ridiculous. If you have a vehicle larger than a car or a mini SUV you are going to have issues finding somewhere to park. On two separate occassions someone has parked behind me and I've been boxed in to the point of not being able to leave after my daughter's lesson. I drive a Yukon XL. I have 3 kids and I'm not about to park far away and carry my smaller kids through the snow and ice no matter how great the teachers and classes are. I've also had payment issues. I originally registered my credit card for the first payment and assumed the tuition would be coming off monthly like every other studio (or class for that matter) that my kids have taken. 3 months go by and I recieve an email stating I owe 2 months worth of tuition. They only accept etransfer or in person payments. That's crazy! It's nearly 2020, people use credit cards now. Definitely behind the times and a little more of a headache for the parents every month.
We Love this place... I took the parented class with my Daughter, 2 months later she Still remembers the songs and Moves ... for sure we will be taking more classes there :)
Wonderful dance studio; they have many varieties of dance such such as highland, bollywood, and contemporary. They offer adult classes as well. The year end show is always an enjoyable time. I'm not sure about other levels/genres, but at least for the higher levels of ballet, there are numerous occasions for the ballerinas to compete and dance at many functions.
Long-time member of the Edmonton dance and arts community, Marr-Mac offers friendly, quality instruction across a range of dance styles and all ages. Ability to pay month by month is appreciated too.
