Best

I am an alumni of RAFA and professional performer in the dance field spanning venues such Broadway shows, national tours, commercials, tv, and am now a director and choreographer...

Worst

Ok, the training here I have been very pleased with. But the unorganization is RIDICULOUS. We took at the spotlight studio and I wrote a review on how bad organization was there...

DO NOT BRING YOUR KIDS HERE 9/9/2011

I used to bring my daughter here for meney classes and paid too much money for the bad ballet classes that was somtimes tought by Ms lynette that has no clue how to teach ballet I have ben a ballet artest for years and I have retired. she dose not know or how to teach or dance ballet My daughter is not pleased with Lynette of her mean ways. my daughter is now 17 years old and wants to go to another place to dance whear she will be happy and not be put down. She knows more abought ballet thin Lynette I know this because I seen her dance. DONT BLOW YOUR MONEY HERE IT IS NOT WORTH IT more

RAFA Review 8/20/2007

I am an alumni of RAFA and professional performer in the dance field spanning venues such Broadway shows, national tours, commercials, tv, and am now a director and choreographer. I would never have succeeded in this career had I not had the training that I received with RAFA and specifically Lynette Gregg. In the Clear Lake area, you will not find a better and more diverse training ground that encompasses world class ballet teachers, tap, jazz, musical theater, as well as various performing opportunities for all ages. Lynette has brought passion, energy and foresight to her students helping them train in a nurturing environment and yet helping them bridge over to university or professional avenues when ready. I know they take great care to ensure information and structure is in place and always make quick reconciliations if anything is miscommunicated, I'm not sure what the negative responses here are achieving when a company has obviously been thriving, growing, and educating young artists for over 35 years. And in an environment where sports and other activities dominate, I would think any consumer/ art lover would be building up a business that not only teaches art appreciation and education to their youth, but also is a regional ballet company bringing art appreciation and outreach to the community. And as per the recital comment, you wouldn't go to the New York Symphony and call it band practice. :) Even in the semantics, Lynette is aiming for the highest goal not only for herself, but for her business and students. more

We have been pleased 7/16/2007

We have been very pleased with RAFA's programs. My kids may not be destined to be great ballerinas, but what my husband & I appreciate is they are not just about ballet, although their ballet program is very strong. We have really taken to the theater aspect of their school with their Musical Theatre classes and Broadway Studio Workshop. It's organized, but not as structured as the ballet classes. I'm not saying there's anything wrong with structure, but the musicals have really allowed them to shine. I'm surprised the other reviewer had trouble with information b/c we get SO MUCH information from them from emails to handouts to letters. If I forget their rehearsal schedule, I can even go to their website to check it. Like I said, it's working for us. more

REALLY wish it was better 5/31/2007

Ok, the training here I have been very pleased with. But the unorganization is RIDICULOUS. We took at the spotlight studio and I wrote a review on how bad organization was there. We quit for summer then signed back up at this location thinking maybe it was just location. It's definitely not. It's VERY frustrating to not have details on things and to not be able to get ahold of anyone when you call. To turn in paperwork and they misplace it, etc. I really wish I didn't have to take my daughter out because we do love her teachers and as I said, she is receiving good training, but I can't handle all other aspects. Another gripe I have is they are going up again in pricing and to me, that's only ok if you are getting your money's worth. I shouldn't have to work so hard to squeeze info out of them when I'm paying so much. I don't feel quite as strongly as the previous reviewer, but I will agree with one thing, don't EVER say the word recital....lol more

DONT DO IT! 7/18/2006

Please do not waste your money on this ridiculous establishment!!! The quality of instruction is not bad, however the owner is a delusional bitch. You are not allowed to say the word "recital" unless you are ready to get a tongue lashing from Ms. Lynette. She is quite frankly THE most unprofessional business owner that I have ever had the misfortune to meet. She employs a meth addict and a verbal abuser-very conducive to an educational place, eh??? Enough said. more
