"As a choreographer myself, I find Alaina to be a really good choreographer and teacher. Her choreography is easy to pick up and technically fits the strengths of every dancer on the team. Shes willing to slow down and perfect each move until it is portrayed and executed just the way she saw it in her mind. Alaina does well working with each dancer individually and in a group to help them reach their full potential. Alaina also has original ideas behind themes in her dances. They always look very professional throughout the entire piece."

"Alaina created a first dance routine for my fiancé and I. Working with Alaina was really easy - we told her what song we wanted to use and met a week or so later to learn the full routine. Alaina did a great job adapting to our skill levels and style. I would definitely recommend Alaina to others in need of choreography!"

"Best teacher ever!!! So sweet, fun and super great at dancing. Her choreography is so amazing too! Working with her, I have improved immensely, thanks to her 'tricks,' motivation, and personal care for my abilities. I was so thankful and excited to work with Lai Rupe's Choreography and have Alaina as my mentor!!" ❤❤

"I have been dancing my whole life and until I met Alaina I had never seen

such great choreography. Lai Rupe choreography challenges dancers

causing them and their technique skills to grow. Routines are always kept

age appropriate. There has not been one routine that I have seen from

Lai Rupe that I have been disappointed with. Alaina has years of experience

in multiple styles of dance and because of that she is able to teach multiple

styles and ages. She is great with children to adults, she gives the a

challenge, but doesn't become a drill Sargent when teaching. Lai Rupe dance

routines are worth every penny!"
