[quote=Anonymous]Can you shed more light on the rigid club policies? [quote=Anonymous]Avoid DC EDGE at All Costs If you're considering DC EDGE, I strongly advise you to think twice. The club fosters a toxic environment where kids face harsh punishments and are made to sit out during competitions if they miss even one practice or are more than 10 minutes late for any reason—no exceptions, regardless of the situation. One of the biggest issues is how secretive and rigid the club's policies are. As a newcomer, you won’t be made aware of these practices upfront, and they can come as a huge shock when they happen to your child. For new skaters, this is not the place to be. There are many other clubs where children are welcomed and encouraged to grow at their own pace, instead of facing the constant pressure of performance. DC EDGE's approach to their Aspire-level team is more in line with preparing athletes for the Olympics, rather than fostering enjoyment or development. Eventually, kids lose the fun and excitement of skating as the focus shifts solely to pressure and competition. Save yourself the stress and frustration—find a club where the experience is more balanced and where kids can thrive both in skill and passion for the sport.[/quote][/quote]
