Hi everyone,
Well… what a year it has been! 💜
RS Dance has officially finished for the summer after two absolutely amazing shows and I couldn’t be prouder of everyone involved.
Thank you so much for all the love and support you’ve shown us once again. Watching the girls perform after all their hard work and dedication has been so special and seeing their confidence grow is what it’s all about.
A huge thank you to my mum and my step-mum, the Tracey’s, for everything you do every single Saturday. Your support means the world to me and I’m so grateful for everything you do behind the scenes.
Marnie, thank you for everything you’ve done this year. Your support has been incredible, especially during a year when I wasn’t able to do as much as I normally would. I honestly couldn’t have managed without you.
Lauren, thank you for becoming part of the RS Dance family. You have been amazing with all of the students and your kindness, patience and enthusiasm have made such a difference. You’ve been an incredible support.
Becky, I honestly don’t know what we would have done without you this year! Your help has been unbelievable. You’ve kept us all sane and the shows simply wouldn’t have been possible without you.
To all of our wonderful students – thank you. Your commitment, hard work and enthusiasm are what make RS Dance so special. You all work incredibly hard every Saturday and it has been an absolute privilege to watch you grow and perform this year. Every single one of you should be so proud of yourselves. You are all amazing dancers, and I can’t wait to see what you achieve next.
To everyone who helped behind the scenes, thank you for giving up your weekend to make sure everything ran so smoothly. Your hard work often goes unseen but it never goes unnoticed.
And finally, thank you to all of our dance families. Whether you’re bringing the girls to class every Saturday, helping them practise at home, cheering them on from the audience or supporting them every step of the way, thank you. Your encouragement and commitment mean so much and RS Dance wouldn’t be what it is without you.
On a personal note, thank you all so much for the love, kindness and support you’ve shown me since becoming a mum. Welcoming Oliver has made this year even more special and the encouragement and understanding you’ve all shown has meant more than you’ll ever know.
To my husband, thank you for your endless love, patience and support throughout it all. I feel incredibly lucky to have such a wonderful dance family.
I can’t wait to see what next year brings but for now, enjoy a well-deserved summer break. Rest, have fun, make lots of memories and we’ll see you all in September!
Thank you again for everything.
Lots of love,
Tess 💜 xx
