🦢✨ FROM CYGNETS TO SWANS — MISS ALEX ✨🦢

And so we come to the final Cygnet to Swan in our series… and this one is a very special one indeed! 💜

Because our final Cygnet is now Miss Alex — an integral part of the Insight Dance & Arts team! 🌟

Alex started dancing with Miss Karen when she was just 5 years old, beginning with Saturday morning Ballet and Tap. It wasn’t long before she wanted to do more, more, more! 🩰

She became a member of our Performance Group and performed at some incredible venues and events, including:

🎭 Her Majesty’s Theatre, London — TWICE!
🎢 Alton Towers “Chance to Dance”
✨ Numerous local events
🎪 And, of course, many of our own DDS shows

Alex continued her education, gaining her GCSEs and A-levels, before beginning to teach at DDS — which has now evolved into Insight Dance & Arts.

Today, Alex is an integral part of our team and plays such an important role in our Saturday morning classes. 💜

But Alex didn’t stop there…

Alongside teaching, she completed both her Level 3 AND Level 4 IDTA Dance Teacher Diplomas — all while simultaneously completing a four-year Primary Education degree at Nottingham Trent University…

…and becoming a Mummy too! 👶❤️

And this year, Alex officially qualified with a:

🎓✨ BA (Hons) in Primary Education! ✨🎓

Honestly… what a Superwoman! 🦸‍♀️💜

From a five-year-old little girl walking into Miss Karen’s Saturday morning Ballet and Tap class, to a qualified teacher, professional dance teacher, university graduate and mum — what an incredible journey it has been.

Miss Steph and Miss Karen couldn’t be prouder of you, Alex. ❤️

You have grown from one of our little Cygnets into such an amazing young woman, and we feel incredibly lucky to have you as part of our team.

🌟 Please join Miss Steph and me in congratulating Miss Alex on her remarkable achievements and wishing her every success for the future! 🌟

Although this may be the final post in our Cygnet to Swan series, Alex’s journey with us certainly isn’t over…

🦢✨ FROM CYGNETS TO SWANS — TILLY ✨🦢

Day 6 of our DDS Alumni celebrations and today we’re celebrating the wonderful Tilly! ❤️

Tilly started dancing in Miss Karen’s Cygnets classes at just 4 years old.

During her time at DDS, she took IDTA examinations in Ballet, Tap, Modern Jazz and Musical Theatre. It was during this time that Miss Karen recognised a beautiful singing voice in this little dancer and encouraged Tilly to work with a professional singing coach. 🎶

And just look what happened next…

Tilly went on to gain a BA in Performing Arts and has spent the last six years working professionally as a singer-songwriter — releasing her own music, performing on cruise ships and singing with a variety of jazz bands. 🎤🎶
Tilly has been a guest teacher with us & taught our musical theatre students as well as our adults (tap, ballet & west end)

But Tilly wasn’t finished learning yet!

She returned to education at the prestigious Mountview Academy in London, studying for an MA in Musical Theatre Performance.

And this summer, Miss Karen had the absolute privilege of watching Tilly perform in Godspell — and was SO incredibly proud. ❤️

Today we are absolutely delighted to celebrate Tilly’s latest achievement:

🎓✨ MA WITH HONOURS! ✨🎓

From a four-year-old Cygnet in Miss Karen’s class to a professional performer and now a postgraduate with a Master’s degree — what an incredible journey!

Congratulations, Tilly! We can’t wait to see what the next chapter has in store for you. 🌟
& look forward to having you come to teach workshops when you can 👌

Join me in congratulating Tilly on this fantastic achievement and wishing her every success for whatever comes next!

Once a DDS dancer, always part of the family. 💜
