Review from En Pointe Studios

Our studio thoroughly enjoyed attending Dance Invasion! As a small-town dance studio, we were initially nervous about attending such a large competition, but from the moment we arrived, we felt incredibly welcomed.

The facility is absolutely beautiful, the staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful, and the entire event was extremely well organized. Everything ran smoothly and stayed consistently on schedule, which made for a very positive experience for dancers, teachers, and families.

The adjudicators were encouraging, and professional. They provided valuable constructive feedback, and we found the scoring to be fair and well-balanced. We also appreciated the many opportunities for students to win various awards presented at the competition.

Without a doubt, Dance Invasion has been one of our favourite competition experiences to date. We have nothing but positive things to say and are already looking forward to attending again in the future!

Review from Alberta Dance Academy

Our studio has had the pleasure of attending Fabulous Feet Productions events for several years, and each experience has been exceptional. Gail and her team consistently demonstrate outstanding communication and professionalism. Their events are well-organized, run on schedule, and maintain reasonable hours for teachers, dancers and their families.

The adjudicators are experienced, knowledgeable, and provide valuable feedback, while the event staff is consistently welcoming and efficient. We especially appreciate the format of the dance-offs, overall awards, and scholarships, which provide an impactful finishing touch to each competition.

Fabulous Feet Productions continues to be a favorite among our team, and we always look forward to attending their events at the wonderful venues they select.

Review from Niki Prime of Wynyard School of Dance

Good Morning,

I hope that this message finds you well. I just wished to take a moment to say a heart felt thank you. Our small town was performing in Dance Evolution in Regina this weekend. This was our first time competing in this event. I am both a parent of two dancers and sit on the executive for our school of dance. Right from the beginning, this competition had an ebb and flow that was beyond fabulous. The venue was perfect. It was accommodating at every level. We loved being on the university grounds and having access to free and ample parking. The set up in the foyer was wonderful and the staff welcoming and warm. We were blown away by our dressing room and the quick access to the washrooms. We appreciated the schedule and the adherence to the times! We loved the access to the stage and the general overlay. The ability to hold practice in the practice rooms was also appreciated. Even though the weekend was busy, I never once felt overwhelmed — the atmosphere that was created was homey and calm which is so very much appreciated. I also loved the ability to view the dancers in the wonderful auditorium!

Your choice of adjudicators was second to none. There have only been a few times in my life when I have had the privilege to be in the presence of such positivity and never has that been in the area of dance. Sadly, both of my girls were thinking of quitting their dance lives this year. However, after both of them had their groups qualify for your dance off — and having the opportunity to listen to the feedback from both Kellie and Shannon, they are sparkling again – as is their momma. I must be honest and say I did not understand the purpose of the dance off initially and was feeling a little grumpy about the late hour and the long drive home. However, the ENERGY and BUILDING of confidence and spirits from that event still gives me goose bumps!

Hats off to you!! There are not enough words for me to say Thank You… so just know.. that our hearts are aglow … and that you and all of your work, dedication and heart are appreciated. I am so very hopeful that we will have the amazing opportunity to participate in this event again.

Thank you.

Sincerely,
Niki Prime
