Well done to our SJPT on receiving a STAR PERFORMER AWARD for their final competition of Season 6! ⭐️ Once again, you held your own in a strong jazz section. A huge thank you to Miss Paige for giving this team a magnificent routine and an impressive trajectory of growth. The level of attack you are bringing to the stage as a result of Season 6 is incredible! 💥

Another amazing result for our JJPT at PLATINUM DANCE COMPETITION today! Our team received 2nd Place and performed with style and precision on a very large stage! ✨💫✨

Along with our 2nd place we took home the OUTSTANDING CHOREOGRAPHY AWARD for the entire 10 and Under session. I’m super proud of the girls for making this choreography shine and honouring my creative offering. I’m also quietly chuffed as I have admired the adjudicator’s Chris Haines Choreography slick routines and creative vision for many years. 😊

Can you believe we’re already in Term 3!! 💥

This is the term where magic happens🪄. Our concert routines are well under way. Costumes are starting to arrive. Our Season 7 performance teams start learning their NEW routines! 🙌 🔥

Let’s dance away the remaining weeks of winter. We are excited to see everyone back in class this week. ☺️

Sophia and I took a little road trip to compete in Wollongong Eisteddfod on Sunday. It was a very special full circle moment, as the adjudicator was my very own childhood dance teacher Linda Shaw Wilson. The very woman who inspired my love of dance and teaching. 🥰 It was a surreal moment watching a dancer I have trained performing on the very stage I used to perform on year after year growing up. Sophia danced beautifully in a very strong class and received wonderful feedback and recognition from the incomparable Miss Linda. 💗
