It’s been a full day today of December Examinations From little tots starting out progressing to juveniles, juniors, inters and then advanced students. Little short exams to hour long plus ones We have had a mix of tap, ballet, theatre craft, contemporary modern jazz and acrobatic subjects in today.
Not all the dancers had time to pose for an impromptu picture, but we did see lots of happy faces and smartly dressed pupils, plus the examiner was welcoming to all the performers. It’s been a busy exam year 2022 so a special thank you to every dancer for working so hard throughout the dancing year, all your efforts and improvements have been appreciated Next Exams Feb 23

Such a huge acheivement - we are so proud of you Eavie! Well Done to Imogen too, who represented the association wonderfully in the Senior Tap section. It's been two very long weekends at the All Stars Festival but ads pupils you have all worked so hard with so much energy, fitting in extra practices in the studio and some of you nipping back for grade classes in between,on the Saturdays. From little dancers to seniors you have never once tired. Well done all. Adjudicators choice solos were Eavie Amos tap, Leylah Rushton modern, and Imogen Amos character who was the Winner. Congrats every dancer.
