Hereโ€™s to another fantastic season ahead for everyone at Team KBDA. We couldnโ€™t be more proud of every single dancer who passes through our doors. Dance is for everyone, which is why weโ€™ve created both recreational and competitive classes to suit all ages.

Hereโ€™s to making more wonderful memories in the new term ahead. ๐Ÿฉต

Weโ€™re delighted to announce that our Acro teacher, Bethany is now a certified Acrobatic Arts teacher, having passed both the practical and written assessment, achieving an outstanding 100% on her written paper.โœจ

Thanks also to Miss Lana Gibson for taking time out of school last week, to help Bethany with the practical side of her exam.๐Ÿคธโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Exciting times here at KBDA. ๐Ÿฉต๐Ÿฉต

02/09/2026

A very warm welcome to all our new starts and of course it was lovely to see everyone back in class. ๐Ÿฅบ Well done to everyone - you all settled so well into class. We know starting somewhere new can be a little daunting but safe to say you took it in your stride. A special mention for our little ones - weโ€™re so very proud of you all and how well you did.๐Ÿฅฐ

How lucky we are to still be in business after all these years. To watch dancers we taught as little girls, return as mums themselves, with their own little dancers, is something we never take for granted. Likewise to see siblings join their older sisters in classes is a joy to watch.

Family is at the very heart of everything we do here at KBDA. Hereโ€™s to the best season, with the best Team.

And so panto season auditions are once again upon usโ€ฆoh yes they are!

Warmest congratulations to Anna, Lucy and Sophia T, who successfully auditioned today for Imagine Theatres โ€œGoldilocks and the 3 Bonnie Bearsโ€ at the Pavilion Theatre in Glasgow. Well done also to Grace who got reserve (out of 400 dancers).๐Ÿงธ๐Ÿงธ๐Ÿงธ

And not forgetting Caitlyn who successfully auditioned yesterday for Imagine Theatres, โ€œBeauty and The Beastโ€ at The Adam Smith Theatre, Kirkcaldy. ๐Ÿฅ€๐Ÿ’›

We are so proud of EVERY single dancer who put themselves forward for these auditions - a special thank you to all our parents for taking time out of their own busy schedules to chaperone the girls. Team work at its best.๐Ÿฅบ

Itโ€™s going to be a busy time here at KBDA but we wouldnโ€™t have it any other way.

Take a bow girls.๐Ÿฉต๐Ÿฉต๐Ÿฉต๐Ÿฉต๐Ÿฉต
