✨ A VERY SPECIAL GOODBYE TO OUR JESS ✨
Almost a decade ago, a little girl walked through our doors for a holiday camp… and none of us could have imagined just how incredible her journey with us would become. ❤️
From those very first steps, Jessica, or Jess as she is more affectionately known, has grown into an exceptional dancer, performer and young woman and watching her journey unfold has been one of the greatest privileges.
Over the years, she has achieved so much, from smashing her IDTA exams and receiving scholarship nominations, to performing on the stages of London’s West End and becoming a truly decorated competition dancer. 🏆✨
Her love and talent for Freestyle have seen her achieve incredible things, including proudly representing our school at Blackpool, moments that we will always remember with enormous pride. 💃🏼 Finally, what could be a more magical way to finish almost ten years with us than dancing in Disney World, Florida! 🏰✨🇺🇸
Jess, you have given so much to our school over the years. Your hard work, determination, talent, laughter and beautiful spirit have made you such a special part of our dance family. We have watched you grow from that little girl at holiday camp into the amazing young lady standing before us today and I honestly couldn’t be prouder. Your jumps will go down in history and your loyalty to my school will always be remembered. ❤️
Assisting teachers in class and inspiring the next generation of dancers has been particularly special too!
Although saying goodbye is incredibly difficult, I know this is not the end; it’s the beginning of an exciting new chapter. Wherever your dancing, dreams and adventures take you next, we hope you always remember where it all began. ❤️
Thank you for almost 10 wonderful years of memories, achievements, laughter, tears, hard work and magic.
Keep dancing. Keep believing. Keep being YOU. ✨ I am SO incredibly proud of you, Jess!
Once a part of our dance family, always a part of our dance family. ❤️ Go and make the world your stage. 🌎✨Who knows, maybe you’ll be back with us in a teaching capacity one day in the future. 🤞🏼
With all my love,
Katie ❤️
