🌟🩷 SIX DREAMS. SIX INCREDIBLE DANCERS. ONE VERY PROUD AVANT FAMILY. 🩷🌟

Today is one of those very special moments that makes a dance teacher’s heart absolutely burst with pride. 🥹

We are beyond excited to announce that SIX of our Avant pupils have been selected to enter the Associated Board of Dance Scholarships in February 2027! 🩰✨

This prestigious opportunity recognises pupils who have achieved exceptional performances in their dance examinations over the past year — and to have SIX Avant dancers selected is an achievement we are incredibly proud of. ⭐️

Please join us in giving the biggest congratulations to:

✨ Lily Pearce
✨ Alisha Merrifield
✨ Holly Gazzard
✨ Ffion Curran
✨ Ruby Smith
✨ Romilly Sefton

Behind every achievement like this are hours of hard work, dedication, perseverance and love for dance.

I have watched each of these girls work so hard — not just during their lessons, but putting in the extra effort in their own time, pushing themselves, overcoming challenges and continually striving to become better dancers. 🩷

As their teacher, I honestly couldn’t be prouder.

These moments are what make all the rehearsals, corrections, early mornings, tired legs and countless hours of practice so incredibly worthwhile. To see their hard work recognised in this way is truly special. 🥹✨

And girls… this is only the beginning. 🌟

Go into February knowing that you have already achieved something amazing. Dance with confidence, dance with passion and most importantly, dance because you love it. 🩰💕

Whatever happens on the day, you have already made your teachers, your families and your entire Avant Family incredibly proud.

Six very special Avant stars. ⭐️

Today we’re celebrating our wonderful Miss Chloe! 💕🩰

Chloe, thank you for everything you do for Avant Dance Academy and for every single one of our pupils. Your dedication, care and commitment never go unnoticed, and we are incredibly lucky to have you as part of our Avant family. 🥰

You give so much to your students, always encouraging them, supporting them and helping them to become the very best dancers they can be.

And, of course, we couldn’t forget your bubbly personality, infectious enthusiasm and beautiful smile! 💕 You bring so much energy, positivity and chat 🤣 into the studio, and you have a very special way of making everyone around you feel happy and welcome.

We hope you have the most amazing birthday and get thoroughly spoilt — you absolutely deserve it! 🥂🎂💗
