We are the parents of children that take lessons at the Creative Children's Dance Centre. We are saddened to learn that treadmills will be placed over the dance studio. We have heard the amount of noise that just walking and construction has created in the studio and lobby space and are worried that the noise from treadmills will adversely affect our children's dance classes. Please consider an alternate location for the exercise equipment.

Watching my daughter struggle to hear her instructor over the sound of drilling this week made it clear that this space is not built for heavy gym equipment. We are currently gathering notes from other parents about how this disruption is impacting their children during rehearsals.

The groundswell of support for our dance studio has been incredible to witness in such a short time. My daughter and her classmates deserve a quiet space to learn and grow without the constant thud of heavy equipment looming over them.

my daughter has dance at 4 and it is already loud enough in there. treadmills are a terrible idea for a studio environment.

Ridiculous. They need to focus! How are the kids supposed to hear the music with stomping machines going off overhead???

This is common sense. Who puts gym equipment right on top of a dance room? The vibration alone is going to be a nightmare for the instructors.

Please dont do this. The kids love their classes and they work so hard for their recitals. Dont ruin it with constant noise.

Bad planning. My niece is there twice a week and she already complains about the banging sounds from upstairs. Put the treadmills in the back basement or something.
