I just called this studio to find out if any class...

I just called this studio to find out if any classes are held in English, and specifically one I was interested in, and they said they didn't know and gave me a vague, slow answer saying "well we are in Berlin, you know, the capital of Germany, and most people speak German here, so..." This is one of the main dance studios in Berlin and I am floored to be shamed by asking this question. They employ dance teachers from all over the world and many dance classes are led in English regardless of what country they are held in. It's sad to see nationalistic views present here (or anywhere), I expect better from one of the main pillars in the scene in Berlin.
