Both danced their way to success by winning first place in their divisions which earned them the title of European Champions.
Founder and dance teacher, Vicki Williamson, who set the school up ten years ago said: I am absolutely ecstatic. We went to the championships never expecting to win one title, never mind two. It’s a huge competition with teams competing from as far away as China, South Africa and America, so to come home with the titles we did was truly the icing on the cake.
“It’s a great achievement for the girls and it just goes to prove that hard work, dedication and effort pays off. Anything is possible and I’d say follow your dreams.”
