Here we go again… ✨🩵

Miss Emma has temporarily hung up her dancing shoes, in preparation for her baby boy’s arrival in Spring. 🐰

She will still be keeping everything ticking over ‘backstage’, but please be patient whilst she navigates two businesses and two little ones!

Thank you to all our wonderful customers for such thoughtful gifts, cards and general support. We’re so grateful to have such a genuinely amazing community between bayballet Bradley Stoke, Thornbury & Portishead and The Emma Kate Dance Academy.

Our dancers will be in the very best of hands with our fantastic teaching team.

See you soon! 🤍
(Missing our dancers already!)

Thank you to everyone who has made this year so wonderful. Our dancers, our teachers and all our super supportive families. 🤍

Little reminder that Term 3 fees are due today.

Emails will be monitored, but please expect delays. Miss Emma will be soaking up her last Christmas as a family of 3!

Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! 🎄
