LE CLASSIQUE DE DANSE AWARDS 2026🪩

We are home reflecting on the most incredible weekend that’s happened under the most difficult circumstances after the passing of the incredible Mr David Bullen, huge congratulations to Peter Parry, Caroline, Paul and Team for a spectacular event, enjoyed by everyone!

We were in incredibly honoured to have 4 Classical Sequence nominations from our small but mighty school here in Annan, which is an achievement in itself!✨

We spent the evening with our incredible MSDA families, supporting Anya and Evelyn, Freya and Dan and Zoe, who all attended the evening💃We are incredibly proud of all of them and the hard work and determination they put in year round!!

A huge congratulations to ✨Zoe Patterson✨ who won the “ADULT CLASSICAL SEQUENCE” award!!!❤️

Needless to say we all partied the night away with many boogies and giggles all night, to the fab music and hosting of Duncan Trevor in the iconic Winter Gardens!!!✨🪩

The evening was a fitting tribute to David!

On sunday the weekend was finished by a fabulous Tea Dance, where Maureen had the privilege of Judging the Amateur Gold Cup, which she was invited to do so before David passed.✨

Another amazing weekend for our team at MSDA💛🖤

Anyone guess who these little ones are???👀🩷

Both girls are a strong credit to our school and girls who they look up to, both outstanding competitors in their own right!✨🪩

We want to inspire a new generation of dancers to grow up like these two!!

Contact us now for more information!✨

The Dance Community 🤍

One of the most special things about dance is the people you meet along the way.

What starts as simply coming along to a class can grow into friendships, laughter, shared experiences and a real sense of belonging. ✨

From beginners taking their first steps to those who have danced for years, our classes bring people together from all walks of life.

It’s the friendships made in the studio, the conversations between classes, the encouragement, and the memories created together that make our dance community so special. 🫶

“Friendship in Dance”✨💃
