ETA: I only wish you success in life, and that is our differences. I don't have any smart, alecky things to say about you. I think you are very talented in what you do. I will continue to say that. However, it is not my job to stroke your ego. I actually enjoyed your classes and looked forward to going I was going to stop for a bit until my body got over the shock it was in. I don't know how to use zelle or any of that kind of stuff, so I asked my daughter to do that for me. My daughter's partner was going to pay for any classes she wanted or the 2 of them wanted together. Please remove my "glowing" review from your website. You helped me feel empowered and gave me the wherewithal to quit smoking cigarettes, and for that, I thank you. If you had talked to me just a little bit more instead of making judgments, you may have understood. The smarter thing to do with someone you consider a friend would be to put differences aside and send a text message, so be careful. She is not your friend. Don't get her confused as such. When everything is going her way, she sends random text messages throughout the day and night. The very second it's not, she has many reasons why you are no longer wanted and she couldn't wait to see the back of you until it was time for payment again.
I continue to say that I'm happy I'm not being used anymore. It's pretty sad that when one decides to live a healthier lifestyle, the support just isn't there. After using nicotine in cigarettes and vape, I honestly thought my coach would support me. I can't say I wasn't warned. At first, the classes were fun, and I enjoyed time with my daughter. We did take classes together. I acknowledge that, but we also wanted classes separately. Eventually, as younger people do, my daughter advanced a bit quicker, and I wanted my own classes, as did she. I lost quite a bit of strength during that positive lifestyle change. I thought I could build that up quicker on my own. Polefiction By Trish suggested that I do open pole, which would bring her more money. I had thought about that, and my daughter was dressed to take over if things got tough for me, but by the time I sent a message I hadn't had any instruction for 11 days and it was being suggested that I wait 19 days. Those can be found on Emily Grace's review. I started to figure out that perhaps I was just the purse strings and taxi driver for my daughter. I'm happy I finally realized that. It was actually my daughter's partner who asked me to send a message because he felt that something wasn't right here. I'll be forever grateful for him. I hope one day the contracts remain the same because the one I have a copy of says much different. As far as knowledge, I wouldn't recommend her. I bought a home pole, and with one phone call, I was told that home poles have a different feel. The owner at Polefiction By Trish told me that the different feelings from home and studio pole were caused because my severely disabled son licks his palms, and perhaps I wasn't cleaning it well enough. That answer in and of itself shows an extreme lack of professionalism and disregard for the differently...
Read moreIt's funny how your hand was out for money, for someone who didn't wish for us to return to your studio. As for your comment regarding how you gave countless suggestions of other dance studios, be it as it may, I got assaulted in the same complex as your studio currently resides in, as you know. I didn't wish to return to the complex, but I came back because I thought you were my friend, and I loved the way you taught, but as the saying goes true friends stab you in the front and you certainly did not do that be it as you lied. My question to you now is how did you know that I did not wish to continue despite what happened and my mother wish to quit? I do have my own money separate from my mother. How did you know that me and my partner didn't reconcile and want to take classes together? I guess we will never know. I guess my mother and I are one of the same. I would also like to know what your numerous problems with us were? To sum this review up (so it doesn't get removed), classes started well. The instructors seemed nice, but it quickly soured. Of course, this will be another "cute" review, but as a parting goodbye, I would like to inform you that you know nothing about me. I'm glad my partner and I will not be attending any of your classes, and I hope you have the day you deserve.
ETA: Yes, I do have my own voice. I was flabbergasted by the text message you sent my mother.I never thought you were that kind of person. My mother doesn't know how to use Zelle or Paypal so she had me send her payment. As for my partner, I never brought him up because I didn't think it mattered since at the time we were fighting, I didn't know if he wanted to try a class, but surprise surprise he did, after my glowing recommendation. Here you want some more truth, let me add. I enjoyed learning in heels, I liked Reanna's class, and I thought your silk was pretty. I grew unsatisfied because every class started to feel the same and I couldn't master any certain moves after months of practice at home. I will not be recommending you to my friends anymore. I wish you...
Read moreTrish “booked” an appt with me through FB messenger and told me only that “we’d secure payment closer to the date”- her exact words. She did NOT tell me I needed to pay to secure the booking, nor did she tell me where to send any money. When I reached back out to her the day of the appt, she treated me as if I should’ve guessed that I needed to pay to secure the booking. When I asked her if or when she ever told me this was the requirement, she would not answer my questions, sidestepped any responsibility for not sharing her own business policies with me, and never offered any understanding for why I might have been confused- her own lack of clear communication. I expressed that all this made me feel bad- no direct response to that either. Idk- it all seems very unprofessional and like a very avoidable way to lose a potential customer. Edited to add: I would’ve paid had I known I needed to or where to send the money. Imo Trish’s response further proves my point: instead of offering some kindness or understanding, I’m belittled and condescended to. No! No thank you. It’s not a “cute” review, I’m not stupid for not guessing your policy and literally not knowing there was something I was supposed to read all of. It’s a serious review with valid feedback. All this could have been avoided easily, yes, if Trish had just said “I need the payment now to book.” It’s like tattoo artists- sure, it’s standard to pay a deposit, but every time I book the tattoo artist still clearly says- I need a deposit of this amount, here’s where to send it. Trish claims to be queer friendly while talking down to a queer person and making fun of me for wanting clear info about her business policies that I have no way of knowing other than...
