Dance classes in Pacific, MO at The Dance Connection

We finished our Nationals victorious as 3rd in the nation for Division 1 small groups!! 🏆Our consecutive second year in a row coming home with a Grand Showcase trophy could not be more than amazing!!

We are coming home with a total of 9 overall placements and some of our best performances! To be surrounded by such talent at a national competition can be overwhelming and exhausting, but the girls handled it like champs and I couldn’t be more proud of them!

The amount of awards we are coming home with could not define us. However, being a small studio in the middle of Missouri and showing up like we did, is something to be proud of. We don’t work like other dancers and remain versatile in so many ways as athletes, yet we still show up on the stage when it matters most. The character, tenacity, and resilience shown by the girls is what drives our success and makes us victorious.

We are honored to continue to do what we love and represent our Pacific community!! 💜🤍💜
