Dancer of the Month - August 2026 🩷

⭐️⭐️⭐️ ZOE ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Zoe’s hard work, positive attitude and willingness to try new things blew all of her teachers away at summer school! She always tries her best and embraces every new challenge with enthusiasm and a smile on her face. Zoe has improved leaps and bounds over this past year and is an absolute joy to have in the studio - well done Zoe, keep up the fab work! 🌟

After nearly two incredible weeks at the 𝗗𝗔𝗡𝗖𝗘 𝗪𝗢𝗥𝗟𝗗 𝗖𝗨𝗣® in Dublin our small but mighty wee team of soloists, duets and trios made up of just 11 dancers achieved an incredible 36 Top 10 placings!

We are delighted to share our results:
🥇 1 Gold
🥈 3 Silver
🥉 4 Bronze
✨ 6 Fourth Places
✨ 4 Fifth Places
✨ 4 Sixth Places
✨ 4 Seventh Places
✨ 4 Eighth Places
✨ 4 Ninth Places
✨ 2 Tenth Places

These results are a fabulous reflection of the commitment and determination shown by every single dancer throughout the competition. And we placed in Jazz, Ballet, Lyrical, Showdance and Commercial!! Wow! So much versatility!!
One of the loveliest things to come from this experience has been the countless messages we have received from fellow dance teachers. Commenting on how professional, kind and supportive our dancers have been throughout the competition. This is so special and is a wonderful reflection of the people you are both on and off the stage. We are absolutely delighted for each and every one of you. You have represented our school and yourselves so beautifully and supported one another every step of the way. We can’t wait to see you all when you get home. Big thank you to amelie gay who was our number one gal backstage. Your help was so so appreciated ❤️
We also need to mention our wee Louella who didn’t just dance and medal at DWC! She jetted straight off to spain to compete in 𝐆𝐋𝐎𝐁𝐀𝐋 𝐃𝐀𝐍𝐂𝐄 𝐎𝐏𝐄𝐍 and gained another 5th and 6th placing!!
Huge congratulations again to every single one of you! You have all done so incredibly well and we couldn’t be happier for you all. Well done!!!!! ❤️
