Finally as the lyceum approaches don’t forget if your dancer is under 16 and you would like them to sign themselves in and out please send in a letter BEFORE the lyceum stating this.

I am so very proud of you all I enjoyed watching every single dance piece!!! Your confidence, improvement and performance is ever increasing at each show its just wonderful to watch!!!

2023 at SDA has been wonderful! In March We have seen a 100% Honors Pass Rate for our Medal Test’s something that has NEVER been done before.
In April our Gfunk Junior Crew Attended one of the most prestigious Dance Showcase events in the UK Dancers Delight which SDA was invited to take part in.
So many trophies at Comps Throughout the year!
Gfunk took part in Breakin Convention which is an international Arts Council Critically Acclaimed Hip Hop dance Professional Showcase we also got an awesome review in the Sadlers Wells critique and were the only Local Act to do so.
Lyceum this year was a huge success, one of the best the date!!
SoarWeekender we went with two contemporary teams, an unbelievable showcase, 8 comp teams and a megacrew who all came away with 1st - 4th Places including phenomenal win from Gfrunk megacrew who won be 24 points and took home £1000.

None of this would be possible without my wonderful team of teachers, Wusty, Codie, Lara, abbey, Kim, millie, Lara, Dan and Leo and our awesome student teachers faith, Amalie, Gracie & Sarah! You guys are wonderful humans who I put so much into the classes! I am super blessed to have you on my team!!!

This year an Official Fundraising team has been born: Headed by Lucy Ransome and Lynn Walton along side Ali Kay, Jamie Naylor, Colin Walton, Emma Naylor, Julie Nurton, Nolana Fielding, Rebecca Louise, Rosie Windsor, Tracey and John Lavin! These wonderful parents that give up their time for your kids! They are the parents that bake, the ones that give up Saturdays to run the tuck shop, the ones that collect raffle prizes and the ones that plan awesome money raising events. They pester you to buy raffle tickets and it’s all going back to your kids. They plan throughout the year to raise money and without everyone’s help donating prizes, buying raffle tickets and supporting the events it wouldn’t be possible. They have raised over £800 and then another £317.50 at the Christmas Show and we are hoping that figure will rise a lot more after next weeks Christmas fair so please please come along and support us (and your children) There’s plenty of Christmas games, stalls lots of prizes to be won, disco and a special visit from a certain man in red.

The money they have raised this year So far has gone back to the dancers they have kitted out our Breakin Convention dancers on the tour in June, funded printing for venture, printing and for prestige and comp outfits and will be kitting out Unified for their Alton Towers Comp coming up in March 24.

SO DONT MISS OUT BE AT THE FAIR On Wednesday 20th at 6.30 they have put on a wonderful event for you guys please come and support it!!! Because they have spent hours organising this to feed the profits back to you guys and they do it out the kindness of their hearts!!!

I am beyond grateful to be a part of the incredible SDA Dance School family because they say it takes a Village to raise a child and this point could not be any truer for SDA thank you to my chaperones, and ALL who came early to help decorate the room too, Charlotte Andrews and Abbey for helping me with the laptop/projector situation, Dan for tieing the balloons (honestly im 37 and cannot tie balloons), mum and dad as always for your constant support, and Nikki and the Link staff who are always awesome! t’s all thanks to the unwavering support and dedication of our outstanding teachers, student teachers and parent helpers. Without them, SDA Dance School simply wouldn't exist that was again proven yesterday I am just so so so blessed to have such a wonderful dance family.

I really believe we have the BEST TEAM and we couldn’t do it without each other!!! So apart from WEDNESDAY 6:30PM THE CHRISTMAS FAIR!! Please be there! We are now on holiday we return back on the 5th January with Shavington and 6th at Sandbach!

🌟 SOAR WEEKENDER 🌟

I am bursting with pride thinking about this weekends comp. Firstly minus some questionable prosoners and woody the level was unreal. Soar is home to alot of high level attendees so the fact we came gome with 4th, 3rd, 2nd and 1st places is great!! but It was an incredible experience that went far beyond the pursuit of a trophy. The support and camaraderie displayed by every dancer and parent involved were truly unreal, and I couldn't be more grateful to be a part of such an amazing team.

Competitions often emphasize the competitive aspect, with the focus solely on winning. However, what truly matters is the journey we on together, the growth we witnessed, and the memories we created. It's about the dedication, passion, and hard work that each and every one of us put into our performances.

Throughout the competition, I witnessed dancers pushing their limits, stepping out of their comfort zones, and showcasing their incredible talent THIS MEANS THE MOST!! The determination and commitment displayed by everyone were awe-inspiring. We supported each other through the emotions, intensity, nerves, encouragement and late nights and early mornings!!

But it wasn't just the dancers who deserve recognition. The unwavering support from our parents was truly remarkable. From early morning rehearsals to late-night waiting for results throw in some snow but they were there every step of the way, cheering us on and providing the love and encouragement we needed. Their dedication and belief in us were invaluable.

While the judges' feedback and the final results are important, let's not forget that dance is about so much more. It's about the joy of movement, the expression of emotions, and the connections we make with each other and the audience our showcase on saturday demonstrated this perfectly!!! I could not be prouder of this piece put together in 7 short weeks one hour a week!!! it was brave and vulnerable and outstanding work! i enjoyed every single second of this piece!

Please look back and be proud Moxie, company Georgia, warrioress showcase, prestige, Gfunk, khaos, hooliganz, phantom, ms funk, huntress, project g, and Venture!! special shout out goes to my Gfunk dancers i am so incredibly proud of you what you guys achieved is outstanding. Getting the Big £1000 cheque and placing 1st in megacrew is a BIG DEAL!!!!!!! we worked very hard over the past few weeks so many rub throughs! but we did it we achieved the Megacrew win and the big cheque and the props that we have just become the winners of the category eveyone looks forward too everyone watches!! i also have to shout out the support that the bots have given to all other dancers thus weekend Alistair, Dan and Steve were only competing in gfunk but were there for Every single other category, showcase, abd category! This to me this team work this support is even more precious than the win!!!!

So, as we celebrate our achievements, let's remember that the true victory lies in the bonds we've formed, the lessons we've learned, and the personal growth we've achieved. It's about the smiles, laughter, and shared moments that will forever be etched in our hearts.

To each and every dancer, parent, and supporter, I want to express my deepest gratitude. Your dedication, passion, and unwavering support have made this journey unforgettable. Together, we have proven that dance is not just about the trophy but about the incredible journey we embark on as a team.

Finally to my teachers Wusty your choreo and the unbelieve way you uplift the dancers and calm me is irriplaceable! Codie your energy, style, choreo and love you give to the dancers is perfect!! Abbey your idea for showcase, your vulnerability and bravery and performance level is out of this world! Let's continue to support and uplift each other, both on and off the stage. Our unity and love for dance will always be our greatest strength and the memories, the growth, and the lifelong friendships we've formed are priceless.

Thank you to each and everyone of you!!!! Love me SDA ❣️❤️

Hey guys, just a reminder again that classes are not on this morning as we are at a competition at NEC 🙌🙌 we will be back next week X

30/11/2023

So we are coming to the end of the preparation! I am so excited for SOAR weekender which will be insane! But im also sad the preparation stage is nearly over. Its a strange feeling but the journey and performance means so much more to me more than the trophy! Don't get me wrong we always do very well and come away with trophies but Its this part now, the energy, the excitement and anticipation the passion and hard work and coming together the overcoming issues and injury the slapping the floor and curse words that we are all shocked to hear but totally understand and then apologise for, the doubt then the kind reassurance the build up thats the magic! Hip Hop is a global culture surrounded by a community that embodies peace love and unity and safely having fun I am so incredibly proud that we are lucky enough to have our version of this in Cheshire! I dont say it enough but I Love my SDA Dance family and im proud so lets go have the most amount fun we can!! shout out to Codie Clarke Christian Worstencroft couldn't do it without you too Hooliganz See you all later xx

Hey guys, if you have a spare moment would you please check out this petition and sign it.

The petition has been created by one of our own dancers who is fighting for mental health hubs to be placed in all gp surgery’s and hospitals to help people who may be suicidal and waiting for an appointment may be too late for them💕

https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/643590?fbclid=IwAR0Z27nFlmBg2crx1NyhLjDd3hkdztd7OwEM2vKtNRuVOCMM89WgGut2BC0_aem_AVRT3AaIb1CAvXd3xNKgmkXgY9M5yw1KQBEWvD6EGRumug8JfGlWhoMiA9te-mR1Xzc

The Government should fund a mental health hub in every GP surgery and hospital, where no appointment is needed. For a person who is feeling suicidal, an appointment could be too late in saving them.
