Thank you all dancers for keeping going after starting this festival from school on Friday and lasting until late Sunday evening. 👏🏼👏🏼 So many good strong performances from the more experienced dancers and how delightful it was to see up and coming dancers progressing not just in their technical work but the whole package of competing, relaxing more and generally enjoying dancing and proving that each stage can help to increase confidence, resilience, improvements and much more.
