As we get ready for another California Championship road trip this weekend, here's photos from the last one! Our dancers came away with two champion titles, multiple runners up, and the dancer of the weekend award. Can't wait to do it again! Good luck to all our dancers competing in the coming weeks!

What an incredible National Championship week! A huge congratulations to Annie, Caroline, Gillian, Jane, Jay and Mairi on qualifying to compete in the U.S. Championships! It was a privilege to watch all your hard work pay off on stage.

It was incredible to watch all 17 of our dancers who traveled for the weekend, come away with placements. But it was even better to witness the moments of friendship, travel, team unity, and excitement mixed in with the competition. Even with some disappointments on stage, it was amazing to see our dancers move past, and push hard again for the next day, or next dance, or even their next class. There is nothing better as a teacher than watching these students grow as people, not just dancers.

And of course, congratulations to Jay on winning U.S. Champion again! Mairi and Jane for their 3rd runner-up finishes. Jay, Annie, Jane, Mairi, and Caroline on top 5 finishes in the Premiership and North American Championship. And Maddie on her first pre-Championship win, (just to name a few of the placement highlights). Now we work for the next one 💪
