💜 What an incredible first competition for Team Dancecatz! 💜
As our first ever competition as a school, I couldn’t be prouder of every single dancer who stepped onto that stage. Every one of you represented Dance Catz with confidence, kindness and a love for dance. 🌟
A huge congratulations to:
🥇 Carys
🥇 Effie & Chloe
🥈 Esme
🥉 Eric
Every one of you should be incredibly proud. The dedication, determination and enthusiasm you’ve shown in rehearsals really paid off, and it was wonderful to see all your hard work come to life on stage.
The standard of dancing was fantastic, and it was so lovely to be surrounded by such talented dancers, supportive teachers and encouraging families. Dance should bring people together, and that’s exactly what this festival did.
At Dancecatz, we pride ourselves on creating a positive, friendly and supportive environment, and that extends beyond our own school. We will always celebrate, encourage and uplift our neighbouring dance schools because we’re all working towards the same goal- to inspire children, build confidence and nurture a lifelong love of dance. 💜
A huge thank you to everyone at Shirley Dance Festival UK for making us feel so welcome. As our very first competition, it couldn’t have been a more positive experience, and we’re so grateful for all the hard work that goes into organising such a wonderful event.
Finally, thank you to our incredible Dancecatz parents. From driving to extra rehearsals and competitions to helping with costumes, hair and endless words of encouragement, your support means everything. The dancers simply wouldn’t be where they are without you, and we’re so grateful to have such wonderful families behind us.
Here’s to the first of many amazing competition memories! 🎉💜
