“Our dancers attended Revel Minneapolis and had such a FABULOUS time! Christian and Frank were so helpful with everything. Our dancers loved all of the classes so much. It was extremely personal. Teachers tried to learn names and gave personal corrections which is really awesome in a convention setting. The whole event was so professional as well. Our dance families and teachers were very pleased. The judges critiques were very beneficial too. We had such an amazing time at Revel and have already begun looking at the calendar for next season so we can attend more cities. Thank you, Revel!”
“My students and parents are still RAVING about REVEL! My students had a blast! Revel is truly something special. So organized and their staff is STELLAR! The kids are BEGGING to do all the combos in class. ESPECIALLY BALLET! You know they're doing something right. As an educator, I am so pleased with the classes my students received, as well as the entire competition experience. We would highly recommend REVEL. We can't wait to go back!”
“Wow! We loved our first Revel weekend! So many of our seasoned advanced dancers said it was their favorite competition convention weekend to date. We have struggled with some weekends this season where the environment wasn't ideal and made the situation stressful for parents and dancers. Your faculty created a very nurturing vibe, while maintaining challenging classes. Please know how much I appreciate that. I also appreciate that your numbers for "sold out" don't feel too big and dancers have space to dance and awards don't go passed midnight. Another thing I really liked was how you selected dances for the closing show.”
“So we just wrapped our final comp of the season, and honestly 100% of the feedback I'm getting about every other event from the staff, dancers and parents is, "it's ok, but it's not REVEL!" I don't know how you all do it, but we're so grateful you do. I wish we can find more events like yours because everything else has been disappointing this season. Thank you for hiring people who care so deeply (Duncan and Derek in particular) are mentioned in our studio on a near daily basis. And creating an environment where learning is truly at the center. The massive amount of work and love you and Frank pour in, it shows in every facet.”
