Restricted Competitions

Last weekend was the Restricted Dance, Impromptu, and Musical Theatre Competitions run by Alison's Studio of Dance. We had a great turn out this year, and especially enjoyed the new Musical Theatre section of the competitions which ran on Saturday night along with the Variation classes. Well done to all the students who danced! Here are a few photos which Alison managed to snap in between running around organising the comps. A huge thank you to everyone who helped out over the weekend, to those who donated trophies and encouragement awards, and of course to our three wonderful judges. We look forward to next year!

(NB: Students from another studio have their own studio's name in brackets; all others are Alison's Studio of Dance students)

Makayla (of Michelle Glover Academy of Dance) with the Reece Riddick Cup, which she won for her jazz solo

Alice with the trophies she won for her Tap solo and Impromptu Tap

Jade (of Emmanuel Ballet Academy), who won the Selene Patterson Cup for Neo Classical

Charlotte with the Guerra Family Cup which she won for her ballet solo

Lyrissa, who placed Third with her Demi Character solo 'Elsa'

Anika, who won the Laura Sarten Cup for Variation 14 Years and Over with her variation 'Sylph' from 'La Sylphide'

And it wouldn't be comps without a little organised chaos backstage: Maya and Amber get ready for their ballet solos

Thanks for reading!
