🩰✨ RAD Exam Week Highlights! ✨🩰

A beautiful collage of moments from our annual RAD Graded Examinations last week — and what a proud moment it has been for all of us at AQ Dance Academy! 💖

We are incredibly proud of every single student for their growth, dedication, and progress year on year. From building strong foundations to refining their technique and artistry, each step forward is a milestone worth celebrating. 🌟

Here’s to moving up to the next level and continuing this wonderful journey together! Keep striving, keep growing, and keep dancing with heart. 💫

Grade 3s in Class!

Our Grade 3 students have been hard at work preparing for their upcoming Royal Academy of Dance exams — refining technique, strengthening artistry, and of course, sharing lots of laughs along the way! 💖

It’s such a lovely age to teach — happy, curious, and soaking up knowledge like little sponges! Every plié, tendu, and smile brings them one step closer to growth, both as dancers and as individuals.

Keep up the great work, Grade 3s — we’re proud of you and cheering you on always!

Still riding the recital high… 🩰💖

It’s been 2 weeks since our AQ Dance Recital 2025 at NUS UCC Theatre — and we still haven’t gotten over the excitement, energy, and magic of it all! ✨

A HUGE thank you to our incredible teaching faculty, hardworking backstage crew, and ever-supportive parents — your dedication made it all possible.

We’re so proud of what our students accomplished during the intensive rehearsal week — from our tiniest dancers to our senior performers, everyone came together, supported one another, and shone on stage like true stars. 🌟

This recital wasn’t just a performance — it was a celebration of growth, teamwork, and the spirit of our community.

HOORAY TO THE AQ DANCE FAMILY! 💐

👑 Sincere steps, Shining Spirit 👑

Presenting Kate Lee in her radiant performance of the Paquita Variation — a ballet solo that demands both strength and classical refinement. Kate has approached it with grace, dedication, and unwavering focus, and her hard work has paid off, with every performance on stage better than the previous one.

2025 has been a remarkable year for Kate as a soloist, and we are so proud to celebrate her achievements across multiple competitions:

✨ IYDC Singapore 2025
• Ballet Solo (9 yrs) – Gold Award
• Lyrical Solo (9 yrs) – Silver Award

✨ IYDC Chengdu 2025
• Lyrical Solo (9 yrs) – Gold Award
• Ballet Solo (9 yrs) – Silver Award
• Top 24 Soloist – Invited to perform at the Gala

But beyond the awards and accolades, what makes Kate special is her sincere, cheerful, and friendly personality that uplifts and inspires everyone around her — from classmates to teachers.

Every step she takes, both on and off stage, reflects her humility and joy in dance. We celebrate not only her big achievements but also the quiet, steady progress she makes every day.

Keep shining, Kate — with heart, grace, and generosity.
