Subject: When my daughter transferred from the Academy in PC, her new TC said she was more like a Novice dancer that was close to PW.
In reply to: Not a comment on the kids but Academy choreo is a joke 's message, "Challenging new steps? LOL" on 19:58:53 02/10/25 Mon

My daughter didn’t know the terminology that others her age did. Her skills were basic but she kept “winning”. She worked hard to get caught up to where she should be and made it into OC but required a lot of hard work. A is basic and they seem to want to keep it that way but that’s not how dancers grow. My daughter is not the only one this happened too. Once you go to A, it’s hard to leave because they will trash you, attempt to sabotage at majors and tell other dancers that you were close friends with, not to speak to you. It’s also hard to stay with the treatment many dancers receive. I don’t know how anyone who has a clue transfers there.

It sounds like, as an unbiased observer, that both RT and the A are coasting on rep:
1) Big names
2) Simple steps (Academy) or 3) same old choreo year in year out (RT)

Not saying either school is bad at all or trashing them, but based on what I've learned, they have talent and skill, but having legacy matters.
