Perth Academy of Highland Dance

An extra special Saturday class this morning, and my last Saturday class for a little while! ✨️

It was wonderful to have such a full class and to celebrate some very exciting opportunities ahead for our dancers.

A special moment shared with Lucia and Grace, who have been selected for the OzScot JDS Singapore Trip! 🇸🇬 They performed their challenging choreography to the class this morning and showed just how hard they have been working in preparation for their upcoming adventure.

We also wish Lily Parker all the very best as she prepares to travel with OzScot Australia in just a few weeks to perform at the Düsseldorf Tattoo in Germany! 🇩🇪

What wonderful achievements and incredible opportunities for our dancers outside of the competition stage.

We are imminently waiting our next recruit!
