Dance Connection 2

It is with sincere pleasure that we proclaim not one, but two deserving dancers this year! Congratulations Ellie Duffin and Taylor Morrison for becoming our 2026-2027 Senior Company Scholarship Winners!

Pursuing the dream of a dancer requires commitment, discipline, and often an enormous amount of sacrifice not only on the part of the dancer, but on their family as well. We have a long-standing tradition at Dance Connection 2, where we present a special award to a deserving dancer who exhibits strength in characteristics such as Integrity, Leadership, Dedication, Friendship and Hard Work. Along with the honor of receiving this prestigious award comes a full year’s tuition Scholarship. We love you both so much, and we sincerely thank your parents for supporting you through our program. Our Legacy is strong due to countless loyal families like yours!

Girls, we are immensely proud to honor you BOTH with this title. As you enter your Senior Year together, we hope that you will soak up every drop and walk away knowing you have truly left a mark on all our hearts. We cannot wait to see you grow together as you begin your final dance season at DC2. Cherish the journey. WORK hard, dream BIG, and NEVER give up! We love you, always.

🤍 Chelsea, Tally and MaryAnna

Introducing our 2026 Squad Scholarship winner, Alice Whitney!

Throughout her time on Squad, Alice has continuously shown a willingness to step outside of her comfort zone and embrace every challenge presented to her in class. Her lighthearted spirit and positive energy bring joy to the studio and make her a valued teammate and role model.

We are incredibly proud of the growth we have witnessed in Alice—not only in her dancing abilities, but also in her maturity, leadership, and character. We are excited to watch her carry the title of 2026 Squad Scholarship Winner and continue to be a positive example for the younger dancers who look up to her.

Alice, we are so proud of you and all that you have accomplished. Congratulations on this well-deserved honor!
