I’ve absolutely loved hosting some dance sessions at Barlick Beach again this summer! 💃☀️

A huge thank you to everyone who has come along and enjoyed dancing with me — it’s been so lovely to see so many familiar and new faces!

The second picture is from our very first session, 12 years ago! 🥹 It’s amazing to think that I’ve been able to host these free sessions every summer since then. What a very special community we live in. ❤️

And a special thank you to Barnoldswick Town Council for organising so much summer fun on the town square each year and helping make our town such a wonderful place to be.☀️

☀️ Summer Holiday Club 2026! ☀️

We had the best time at our holiday club last week! The children who attended were all absolutely amazing, and we had so much fun dancing, crafting, playing games and making lots of wonderful memories together! 🎨🎶🎲

We also made the most of the sunshine on our outdoor adventures and loved discovering all the magical fairy doors! 🧚‍♀️🌳✨

We are so proud of everyone who attended, and what a performance they gave at the end of the week! 🌟

The children performed three fantastic dances inspired by Matilda the Musical, The Greatest Showman and The Lion King for their families — and they were absolutely brilliant! 👏🎭

A huge thank you to Aimee, Stacey and Pippa for your wonderful teaching, support and assistance throughout the week. We really appreciate everything you did to make the club so special! ❤️

And a special thank you to Pippa for the amazing face painting — the children loved it! 🎨🦋✨

We couldn’t be prouder of all the children who took part and everything they achieved!

We’re already looking forward to the next holiday club!
