Leaps And Bounds Dance School

Dates for your diary! 🗓️

Sale and Yarram concerts 2026 - here we go!
🌟🌟🌟

The start of ballet seems to always be about birthdays. “It was my birthday yesterday!” It’s my dad’s birthday today!” My birthday is in 21 days!” Etc etc etc.

We just know Luisa would have walked into exam ballet today and said “it’s my birthday tomorrow!”

We are celebrating you, our special ballerina and beautiful friend. We miss Luisa so much, her presence is still felt everywhere at L&B.

Please take a moment tomorrow to think of Luisa, her loving parents and siblings, her family and friends.
Happy birthday to an angel who is missed beyond words 💔👼🩰
