💛 Today is R U OK? Day 💛

At Captiv8 Dance Studio, we believe dance is about more than learning steps—it’s about belonging, friendship, and supporting one another.

Today, we’re encouraging our dance families to take a moment to check in with the people around them. Whether it’s a fellow dancer, a friend, a sibling, or a parent, a simple “Are you OK?” can make a meaningful difference.

To our students: remember that your wellbeing matters, and there is always someone who cares and is ready to listen.

To our parents and families: thank you for helping us create a community where every dancer feels supported, encouraged, and valued.

Let’s continue to look out for one another—not just today, but every day.

💛 A conversation could change a life.

Love watching my little guy at his dance class 🥰💃🕺

Today we went through all the dances for his end-of-year concert (how is that coming around so quickly?! 😭), then finished the class with an obstacle course and some snacks with his little dance friend before heading home.

Toddlers really do keep you on your toes 😂 Some weeks he’ll surprise me by joining in, dancing away and giving it his all, and other weeks he’ll sulk, refuse to participate and act like the whole class is beneath him 🤣 Then, because I’m his mum, he also seems to think he owns the studio and the rules don’t apply to him 😂🤦‍♀️

You just never know which version you’re going to get, but I wouldn’t have it any other way. ❤️

Soaking up these little moments and loving watching him grow, learn and find his confidence. ✨

Feeling so grateful for the beautiful people I get to meet through my dance studio. 💛

Today, one of our amazing dance mums (who also attends my Mums & Bubs class) surprised me with the sweetest gift. She remembered a conversation we had about how I only got into reading this year and the types of books I’ve been enjoying, and today she turned up with FIVE books for me! 📚✨

I was completely blown away by her thoughtfulness. It’s little moments like these that remind me that our studio is so much more than a place to dance—it’s a community filled with genuinely caring, kind-hearted people.

Thank you for such a thoughtful surprise. I can’t wait to start reading! 🥰📚

Things you don’t see going on behind the scenes as a SOLO dance studio owner & teacher… 😂💃

When people ask, “Are you ready for the end-of-year concert?”

Me: “Absolutely!”
Also me: has 87 tabs open in my brain 🤯

🎵 Cutting music
📋 Sorting the concert order… then changing it… then changing it again
👗 Picking costumes
🎬 Organising visuals
💃 Choreographing
📱 Answering messages
📧 Emails
📝 Lesson planning
🎤 Concert planning
🧠 Remembering approximately 4,762 things at once

Oh, and teaching all the classes too. 😂

There’s no “I’ll just get the costume person to sort that” or “Let me ask the admin team.”

The admin team is me.
The choreographer is me.
The costume department is me.
The IT department is unfortunately also me. 😂

Basically, if something is happening at the studio… chances are I’m somewhere behind it making it happen with a coffee in one hand and a to-do list in the other. ☕️🤣

It’s chaotic, it’s exhausting, and I absolutely love it. ❤️

Now… back to that concert order I was definitely finished with. 👀😂

Throwback to 2014! 💙✨

I found this old clip from my very last baton twirling performance in a parade in the UK, just a few days before I moved to Australia.

I’m the one at the front! 😊

What makes this memory even more special is that I used to teach this group of girls, along with my other dance classes. Seeing them perform with such confidence and pride was incredibly rewarding, and I’m so proud to have been part of their journey.

Watching this footage brings back so many wonderful memories and reminds me how much I’ve always loved teaching, performing, and helping others grow.

It’s amazing where life takes you. From teaching baton twirling and dance in the UK to opening my own dance studio in Australia, the passion for helping people build confidence, learn new skills, and enjoy movement has never changed. ❤️

Do you ever come across an old video that instantly takes you back?
