We are so pleased to announce that Alyssa Borthwick has been awarded her Solo Seal — the Royal Academy of Dance’s highest examination achievement.

This is an incredible accomplishment, and we are beyond proud of Alyssa, who began her exam journey with Deas Island Dance as a young Primary student and now trains in our Extended Training Program. It has been such an honour to be part of Alyssa’s journey.

A heartfelt thank you to the teachers who have guided and supported Alyssa along the way — Ms. Janet Gittens for leading the way alongside Ms. Nicki Wood and Ms. Katie Parks. Thank you as well to Ms. Kelly Douglas for the additional coaching and guidance.

Congratulations, Alyssa! ✨
