“Scholarship Stories” with 2025 Ann & Bill Williams Memorial Scholarship Winner, Erika ✨ “Highland Dance is one of the greatest joys I have in my life, and I feel most alive when I get to dance - especially when I get to share it with audiences from around the world and do so with so many wonderful dancers from across the world. As a recent college graduate preparing to apply to medical school, this scholarship has helped relieve the financial burden of traveling internationally to perform.”

📣 The Fling Together Scholarship Program is designed to help lessen the financial barrier for dancers wishing to participate in unpaid Highland Dance performance opportunities such as tattoos, cultural tours, or stage shows. 🗓️ Applications for the 2026 Scholarship Program are being accepted through May 31st. 🔗 To learn more and apply visit ftcdance.com/scholarships 💜 link in bio 👯‍♀️

"Scholarship Stories" with 2025 Ghillie Grant Winner, Caitlin ✨ "Performing in tattoos has given me a newfound love and passion for Highland. I have always loved choreography, and I found performing in the Virginia International Tattoo really allowed me to show off how much I love creativity within highland.

My favourite part was walking onto the esplanade on opening night, which also happened to be my 18th birthday! Hearing the applause and being able to dance my heart out for thousands of people is an experience I think every highland dancer should have in their life - there are no words for how amazing it is! I have also made so many friends from all over the world, from not only my dance teams but also pipe bands, and military groups. The friendships I’ve made from this experience will certainly last a lifetime!

Experiencing the long days of training, fun costumes and choreography, as well as being able to dance with a group rather than competitively on my own has made me so eager to be apart of every opportunity available to me. Not only have I been able to enjoy the choreography aspect of highland, but it has also motivated me to put in more effort in my competitive training, and made competitions so much more fun as I find I’m now dancing for the love of it!

Living in New Zealand means there are very limited opportunities for us to compete and perform in big events, and I think often we loose sight of what dance is really all about. I am so grateful to have had this opportunity to dance worldwide, and I hope my experience inspires other dancers in small places like New Zealand to get involved and dance all over the world. I cannot say enough how my tattoo experiences have meant to me!”
