Can You Dance? Glasgow 2019
Our Starshine Elite dancers attended the Can You Dance? convention in Glasgow alongside hundreds of young dancers.
The convention included a wide range of dance masterclasses, a showcase of dance colleges and organisations, and a competition. It attracted dancers from across the UK who were keen to learn from some of the industry's top professionals.
