BCHDA closed today with V and the littlest M. Personal goals were accomplished! What a great day!

While we were away…we stopped in st the penticton Highland Games. Our Canadian M won the group and took home the trophy! F and little M also placed in the group! Most postings to come from what we have been up to this past year!

What a great end to a fabulous week of dancing! A competition in the USA on the books. Placings for all at the Skagit Valley Highland Games and Canadian C got to join us for the week after falling ill for Canadians. Well done girls for dancing your socks off! ❤️

What an ending to Canadian’s 2024 Kamloops. The whole studio placed today! F in her pre championship got 6th sword and 7th in ST. Little M got a judges placing in her reel in the Open Championship and Canadian M a judges placing in her sword. Way to go girls!!! 🎉🎉🎉

What a great Wednesday at the Canadian Championships! All of the girls placed in their broadsword sets. F was 4th, Little M was 6th and Canadian M was 4th! Way to go!!! 🎉🎉🎉

The UK studio has come out to compete at Canadian Championships! What a first day. M placed 6 in the e of e and F placed 3 in the e of e and 5 in the hornpipe! So proud of these 2!

Over the next few weeks we will be updating our wall with all of the great dancing we have done over the last year.

Our competition is today! We are very excited to welcome all of the competitors. We want to wish everyone the best of luck tomorrow ☘️☘️☘️

Just a bit of a studio update our Little M and F had the opportunity to dance at SDTA European scholarships. Little M got 6th in her written paper and judges placing in choreo and F got a judges recognition in choreo. A little sad it was their last one but a few of the old studio bunch came to support.

So proud of both these girls!!!
