May 21, 2025Unfinished business
I hired Alana to create a choreography routine for a Bruno Mars song. I repeatedly reiterated that this was for teen girls with zero to no dance experience and that it should be as simple as possible. She completed the task by the deadline, and I did like the routine. However, I mentioned that it may have too many moves for the girls. We agreed that I would try it and contact her if there was an issue for possible changes. I reached out numerous times to request some dance alterations. She failed to reply to my first two requests and finally did on the third attempt. She refused to help out. She wanted me to use the 1st portion of the routine for the whole song. If we had not discussed making changes, I wouldn't have any issue, but this was discussed, and she had agreed to it. If you hire her, get everything in writing and make all expectations very clear. I now have to hire another choreographer and spend more money.

It’s unfortunate that we were not able to work anything out. When you reached back out to me several months after I completed the requested assignment I did not have the capacity to redo the work. I did offer to get on a zoom call and work with the teens personally but was not told there was any issue with the completed work I submitted to you until much later after its submission. The moves were very very basic and with the girls still struggling with them I felt it was best to have them repeat the moment phrase twice versus giving them additional moves when you stated there were already too many moves. I’m not sure why this was not an ok option for you. I’ve always been nothing but professional which is why all of my other reviews have very opposing views than this one. I wish you all the luck in your event and hope you are able to figure it out.

February 15, 2025Ballerina wedding was a great decision
It really was great. The owner was both professional and friendly. Alana was really great she really listened to me and made my ideas 💡 come to life. She was graceful and beautiful and I admit she brought tears to my eyes. My wedding guests were amazed. I would definitely recommend her to anyone. She made the whole process easy and her rate was surprisingly reasonable. Thank you Alana for making my day special 💕

November 10, 2024A Visionary and a Talent!!!
If you are looking for entertainment to make your event feel extra special, I highly recommend Alana aka the Event Ballerina. I contacted Alana to perform at my mother's 70th birthday and all I can say is WOW!!! She danced to Nina Simone's "Feeling Good," and I can say she left all of us FEELING GOOD!
It was such a joy to see her bring her energy, her talent and her flare to the stage. I was a bit worried because she was going to dance on our patio. I am sure that brick pavers can be unforgiving to the feet, but Alana had total control. She made excellent use of the space and made us feel like we were at the Harris Theater.
Alana's communication is superb, she worked with me to implement my vision, her contract was well executed and easy to understand, she was timely for the performance, and above all, she left my mom and our guests with a moment that they will never forget. Everyone was completely enthralled. It is months later and my mom is still talking about it.
I am so grateful that we were able to collaborate on this experience. I look forward to having her perform at future events. Hire her immediately!
