πŸ’™πŸ’œ Good Luck to Our Senior Lines at Champs πŸ’œπŸ’™

What a season it has been for both of our Senior lines.

It certainly didn't start the way we had planned. With four pregnancies across the team, injuries, dancers leaving, and plenty of challenges thrown our way, there were moments when it felt like the odds were against us. But if there's one thing this season has shown, it's just how resilient every single one of you are.

Senior 1, at the start of the year those placings felt a long way off. But week after week, through hard work, determination and a real shift in mindset, you've dug deep and started pulling those results in. Watching your confidence grow and seeing you believe in yourselves has been incredible.

Senior 2, you've probably been hit the hardest. Between pregnancies, dancers moving on, Tinies stepping up, Junior doubles helping out, and even me filling in when needed, it's been a season of adapting and overcoming. Yet somehow, every challenge has only made you stronger. You've stuck together, kept pushing forward and seen the season through with real grit and commitment.

As individuals, every one of you has improved in your own way. Whether it's confidence, technique, performance or determination, you've all grown, and that is something to be immensely proud of.

This weekend, I know both lines will bring the same determination, drive and fighting spirit to the dance floor that I've seen in practice over these last few weeks. Whatever happens, remember how far you've come and everything you've already achieved.

This weekend is also a particularly emotional one as we see the Senior Leader baton handed over. After 10 incredible years, Shelley is stepping down. Thank you for everything you have given to the team, your dedication, leadership, friendship and commitment. You have been the heart of this line for so many years πŸ₯Ήβ€οΈ

I am absolutely gutted that I won't be sharing the dance floor with you all at Champs this year. Instead, I'll be cheering louder than anyone from the sidelines, feeling incredibly proud of every single one of you and of the journey you've been on from where you started to where you are now.
So, good luck in Blackpool this weekend.
Dance with pride. Dance for each other. Leave everything on that floor.

Most importantly, enjoy every second. ❀️

Shelley, Jay, Lottie, Sophie W, Hannah, Sophie R, Ellie, Bec, Gee, Katie M, Kee, Bella R, Saz, Lacey, Bella M, Grace, Rosalie, Charlie, Mell, Katie T, Lucie-Mae, Macie, Amelia & Tia.

No matter the results, you'll always make us proud. πŸ’œπŸ’™βœ¨

πŸ’œ Good Luck Juniors - Blackpool 2026 πŸ’œ

As we head to Blackpool this weekend, I find myself feeling incredibly proud of every single one of our Juniors.

Many of you have danced together since your Tiny days, growing up side by side, sharing countless rehearsals, competitions, victories, challenges, laughs and memories. You've supported each other through the good times and the difficult ones, and this year more than ever has shown just how special the bond between you all really is.
Some of you have spent weeks at a time together, living in each other's houses and becoming more like family than friends. That connection, trust and friendship shines through every time you step onto the dance floor. It is reflected in your achievements, your outstanding progress and the way you perform as one team.

This year also brought many changes. We welcomed some of our Tiny dancers into the line when the Tiny section was disbanded, alongside new faces and returning dancers. What has made me most proud is the way every single one of you opened your arms and hearts, making everyone feel valued, included and part of the family from day one.

Blackpool will be an especially emotional one as it will be the final competition as Juniors for Lucie-Mae and Bella, who will be moving up to our Senior line. These two amazing girls have been with us since Tots, and it has been a privilege to watch them grow into the talented, beautiful young dancers they are today. We are so proud of you both and can't wait to see what you achieve next. πŸ’œ

To all of you, I cannot wait to watch you sparkle under the lights at the Tower Ballroom. Go out there and dance with the passion, determination and heart that I know each and every one of you possesses. Believe in yourselves, trust your training and enjoy every second of the moment.
I have absolutely loved training this line this year. You have made me laugh, made me proud and reminded me why I love what I do. You are, and always will be, my superstars. ✨

Good luck this weekend to our wonderful Juniors:
Bella M, Connie, Lacey-Mai, Rosalie, Charlotte, Maria, Porsha, Lucie-Mae, Amelia, Lottie, Gaby and Ana.

Now go and make memories, make yourselves proud, and most importantly, enjoy every moment together. πŸ’œβœ¨

You've already achieved so much. Now let's see you shine. πŸŒŸπŸ’œ

No matter what is printed on that piece of paper today, remember this: a set of grades will never define your talent, your passion, or your potential. The discipline, creativity, and strength you have built will serve you far beyond the classroom.

We are already so proud of the hard work you put into so take a deep breath, hold your head high, and celebrate how far you’ve come.✨ xx
