SOAR Elevate Finals
Many of our Elite team dancers qualified for the SOAR championship finals on Sunday 8 June… but with the finals being on the same day as a dress rehearasl and 2 performances of our dance displays, it was always going to be a challenge to compete!
A small group did decide to take part and compete in a few of the sections in which they qualified, but unfortunately couldn’t take part for the full schedule of ballet, jazz, tap and acro without missing a “Jet Set” performance. They ran between the Macrobert theatre and the finals venue, Stirling University Sports pavillion, to make it onstage!
Well done to them for both their great performances at the competition, and for making it back onstage for more great performances with their dance classes!

Harry Fleming (under 12) - SECOND PLACE

OTHER SOLOS
Congratulations too to Junior Elite team member Lily who also competed in Highland and placed FIRST! Lily trains in Highland dance with Claire Hammell, as well as studying ballet, tap, jazz, lyrical and MT with CSBS. Junior team dancer Amy was our only competitor to make the afternoon session and she came FIRST in the under 12 acrobatics section!
A special shoutout to dancer Charlie (13) who was also awarded runner-up for the best overall in the Under 15 age group… even without competing with his ballet, tap and acro solos!
