On Labor Day (Monday) the dancers labored the only way they know how- by dancing (and running around in the park/playing card games in between sets😝) at the Shifting Gears dance festival. We got to share the stage with Classical Indian, tap and contemporary dancers and had a lovely time as usual! We also got to premier Annette's new choreo (shout out to Morgan for chroreographing it) and welcomed our alumni dancer, Arya, to the stage for a Fling!❤

Scotland School Trip 2026: Saturday 15 August or Competitions x 2😁

On Saturday we had dancers in two different locations: at the Stirling Highland Games and at the SDTA Central Scotland Championships in Paisley bright and early with a 9.15am start😳😵🥱

Was so very proud of all of the dancers- the Stirling contingent placed at least third with many coming away with a second place (or more!) dancing with Stirling castle as the backdrop and a large crowd watching.

Shoutouts to:
Ollie: Beginner 8/9: with 12 dancers in the group, Ollie had her best placings from this trip❤ with 2, 3, 4, 4. What was her secret? It's a mystery since I wasn't there to figure it out🤪
Madeline: Intermediate 11 & Over Runner Up🏆

The Paisley contingent was at the Lagoon Leisure Centre for the SDTA championships along with 208 other premier dancers😳

Innes: Premier 10's: just missed out on the lineup with a 6th and 4th
Annette: Premier 14's: one of the largest groups with 21 dancers🤯 She danced her socks off and got a call back for CP in the Reel
Morgan: Premier 18 & U21 4th Runner Up🏆
