✨ What. A. Day. ✨
Yesterday, I stood side stage watching 115 incredible dancers — aged from just 3 all the way to 80 — light up The Edge Arena. Every single one of them brought something special to that stage, and honestly… I think this was our best show yet. 💜
Behind the sparkle and the applause was a mountain of work — over 100 hours of admin, nearly 400 costumes, 8 dedicated teachers, and 15 amazing volunteers and chaperones who helped make the magic happen. But more than that, there was teamwork, laughter, nerves, friendship, and that indescribable buzz that only comes from being part of something bigger than yourself.
At RFDance, our mission has always been to build confidence, connection, and creativity — to give every dancer a place where they feel seen, supported, and proud of who they are. Watching our dancers shine yesterday, from our tiniest Tutu Cutes to our inspiring adults, reminded me exactly why we do what we do.

To our families — thank you for the endless lifts, the uniform changes in car parks, the last-minute hair fixes, and the unwavering belief in your children (and us!). You are such a huge part of our dance family.
And to our dancers — you’ve made us laugh, cry, and beam with pride. You’ve reminded us that dance is so much more than steps and routines — it’s joy, courage, growth, and community all rolled into one. 💜

Seeing every dancer support one another, cheer from the wings, and give it their all on stage was truly something special. It’s moments like these that remind me how far we’ve come together — and how bright the future looks as we keep growing, learning, and dancing side by side.
As we wrap up another incredible show year, I just want to say the biggest thank you — to everyone who played a part in making this happen. Whether you helped with costumes, handed out essential snacks, encouraged your dancer, or took a deep breath with us backstage as we made sure we had all quick change tights,socks, footwear where they needed to be, or bundled mats and costumes into your car at the end of the night, you helped create memories that will last a lifetime.
Here’s to our dancers — past, present, and future. Here’s to our teachers and volunteers who pour their hearts into every moment. And here’s to the next chapter of RFDance… because if today was anything to go by, it’s going to be ICONIC. 💫

Now for this exhausted principal to switch my phone off and hibernate under a blanket watching movies all day with my first proper day off in I don’t know how many weeks! 😂💖💖💖

Massive well done to our comp dancers for their very last comp of their very first season!! And what a season of growth it’s been!
It’s been such a pleasure watching you all flourish and grow at each comp we’ve been to both in ability and mentality.

You’ve all worked so insanely hard to fine tune your technique and performance skills and wow if you continue working the way you’ve done this year you will be flying!!
It makes me very excited to see your future progress.
And hopefully we will have a slightly bigger team next year!! 🤞

Keep trying, keep believing and keep achieving! 💖
