International dance success for Florence

We are incredibly proud to celebrate the recent achievements of Prep VI pupil Florence, who has returned from an unforgettable experience at the Dance Summit World Championships in Orlando, Florida.

A dedicated member of the Red Hot Flames Dance School, 10-year-old Florence showcased her extraordinary talent on the global stage, dancing two age groups above her own in the Under 16 Pom International Division. As the youngest member of her team ‘Ignite’, Florence truly was the baby of the group – but her performance was nothing short of inspiring.

The team competed fiercely, securing 3rd place in the semi-finals and earning a coveted sport in the finals the following day. Their goal had been to break into the top six worldwide – a dream they not only achieved but exceeded, finishing an impressive 4th in the world. They were narrowly edged out of a podium finish by just 0.7 points behind a strong American team, with gold and silver going to exceptional teams from Japan and the UK, respectively.

Held at the Walt Disney World Resort, the Dance Summit is the most prestigious competition in the All Star dance community, bringing together elite teams from across the globe for a world-class showcase of talent and dedication.

Florence and her teammates trained tirelessly for months in the lead-up to this event, and their incredible result is a testament to their hard work and team spirit. Beyond the competition, Florence also made many new friends from around the world and represented her school and country with pride and grace.

We extend our congratulations to Florence on this amazing achievement and would also like to take this opportunity to thank all our staff for encouraging pupils to pursue their passions – Florence’s success is a shining example of where that support can lead.

Well done Florence – we are all so proud of you!

Our highly experienced teaching team is committed to bringing hidden talent and undiscovered potential out into the light.
