Apologies it's a late one!😅 I'm finally catching up on social media things after a crazy couple of months🙆♀️
🖤🧡🤍Our June DOTM awards!🤍🧡🖤
Babies - Lillie + Dorothy
Lillie has worked super hard over these last few weeks in training, particularly on her baton technique. She is a joy to teach and always gives the 4 routines she dances lots of effort, energy and sass!🔥 In every training session she lights up the room with her big smile, infectious laugh and silly jokes😅 Keep up the hard work Lillie were so proud of you!🎉
Dorothy is constantly on the go. She is always wanting to learn new tricks and challenge herself as much as she can... Over these last few weeks Dorothy has caught her 2 spin multiple times and is now very close to catching her toss illusion!🤩 There really is no stopping our Baby baton + Pom leader... Keep it up Dee!🥳
Dinkies- Isabelle + Abigail
Isabelle is super hard on herself when she can't do something, but recently she's proved to herself she can do anything she puts her mind to! After trying for months, she finally caught a perfect flag 2 spin in training and during the competitions in June she danced brilliantly on the arena and nailed her mascot place💫 Were so proud of you, Well done Isabelle!🎉
Abigail has been outstanding in training and at competitions. She takes everything in her stride and just cracks on🌟 Whether it's learning new batons moves, learning multiple routines, working on routine knowledge or practising her spins... You can guarantee she's always doing something!😅 Lately, she's really impressed us trainers, particularly in Dinky military, not only remembering the routine perfectly but her deportment and posture has come on so much. Keep it up Abigail!🎉
Tinies- Raven
At the Pom + Baton competition in June, not only did Raven smash it in every routine she performed but she always walked away with an outstanding score as Tiny baton leader winning 1st place!🏆 Her baton technique is constantly improving and she's always finding a way to challenge herself even more. It looks like she might be dancing with us seniors next year in baton👀 Keep it up Raven🥳
Juniors - Lexi
Lexi is a joy to teach and work with in seniors. This girl has been with us since day 1, she walked in, sat down and didn't say a word👀😅. Now if you saw her on the her arena as Junior pom leader at the competition you wouldn't believe she's the same person!🙆♀️ Her last pom performance as a Junior and she placed 3rd in a very tough competition. The growth in your dancing and in you as a person is amazing to see. Keep it up lex, your smashing it🎉
Seniors - Zowie + Kelsey
Zowie had never danced before joining LDF. We decided she should take on the role of senior combination mascot for the 2026 season👀😅 Well... It's safe to say that in her first ever mascot role she absolutely killed it😂🔥 Brilliant scores and gave everyone a right laugh, but most of all we had the best time! And as much as she hates her baton, she's very nearly got a clean 2 spin!! We can't wait to watch you again next month on the arena🎉
Kelsey... Where do we start? Every time you fall you get back up again, literally... That fact you took a big hit, injured yourself and carried on leading your senior flag team was incredible. You constantly push yourself to be better and so many dancers look up to you. Not only a brilliant dancer but a fantastic choreographer and trainer too🌟 Keep up the hard work Kels🥳
