Saying "can't" is a punishable offense for a 6 year old in a beginner class. One of their teachers, threatened, punished, and berated a young kid into a meltdown. As the young child tries to hide herself in a ball, the teacher stands over her and frightens her from seeking help. "There's no crying in aerial silks!"-teacher As a parent, I was unhappy with maltreatment of my child. Talking about concerns breaks the "code of conduct", even if it's about the health and well being of your child. That's "completely inappropriate", "rudeness and hostility". -email I tried to remain calm discussing the situation. I started to tear up as I asked that someone tell the teacher to be kinder to young kids she doesn't know when she comes into a classroom. I offered the advice of instead of standing over the child and reprimanding their tears away, to send them out of the class to their parents. Studio says me and my kid are the problem. Lack of respect and care of children is appalling.
