Grant School of Highland Dance

When it’s your birthday and it’s a dance day…. We celebrate …. So when you’re in the Dominican on your birthday and it’s a dance day…. We FaceTime you!

Happy 22nd Birthday Abby! ❤️

Happy Birthday Raya!

It’s a special event in our dance school when we have a birthday …. Raya had the biggest gathering ever for the birthday pic as it was “practice on the street” for InStep Day!

Love this crew ❤️

Grant Dancers … time to plan for 2026 Competitions!

Amazing photos of my beautiful girls in their sparkly Christmas costumes ✨❤️💚

Unfortunately due to the storm and the unpredictable driving conditions, today's concert is rescheduled to next Sunday, December 21!

We had the best time dancing at the New Glasgow Youth Choir Celtic Christmas Concert tonight! This choir, under the direction of Sheila Aucoin is simply Amazing. If you get the chance to hear them do so!

Fun fact … Sheila is a retired Grant Dancer 🙂 .

We had so much fun dancing in this packed venue! And what’s better than getting to dig out out Christmas sparkle attire 🙂 We loved it all… from the rehearsal to the down time for bonding to the glitter and sequins

When you get a text saying the girls would do it all over again tomorrow you know it was a hit!

Thanks for having us New Glasgow Youth Choir!

Nothing says “upcoming concerts” like a rack filled with Christmas attire !

We sure do love our sparkle !

Great night performing with dance friends from the MacLeod and Smith schools of dance for the Antigonish Highland Society’s St Andrews Night

These girls make me so proud every single time they hit the stage
