Our next Leaver of 2026 is Zoe O’ Gorman who has been a student at the school for over 15 years. As Zoe prepares for her final show with us, she has written about what Dance means to her and the time she has spent at the school 💕 :

“I began dancing at the Alison Cronin Dance Academy when I was 3 years old. After 15 years it’s hard to believe my final show will be this June. Over the years, I’ve shared countless memories with an amazing group of girls who are like a second family to me. I will always cherish the magical moments we shared at long rehearsals, exciting performances and trips away together. Dance has taught me so much beyond technique and choreography. I’ve learned the importance of perseverance, teamwork and believing in myself. I cannot thank Alison and Jess enough for making my experience in the studio so special over the years. As my time dancing in the studio comes to an end, I know that the memories I’ve made and the lessons I’ve learned will be carried with me forever and wherever life takes me.”

Our next Leaver of 2026 is Moya Campbell, who began dancing with us at 4 years of age. Before her final show with us, Moya reflects on her time at the school and what dance has meant to her over the past 15 years 💕:

“I’ve been dancing with the Alison Cronin Dance Academy for the past 15 years. I started Ballet when I was four and I have since attended countless Ballet and Contemporary classes, where I have learned so much about dance and also dedication and friendship. Alison and Jess always encourage students to mirror their own dedication and energy and I think this shows in everything that we do! Dancing has taught me to persevere and to work hard and I always have enjoyed the challenge of it. I’ve made so many memories in classes, rehearsals and shows-you always leave dancing in a better mood than before! It’s always great to have dancing to look forward to and it is such an escape from school and exams. I’m also very lucky to have made so many great life-long friends through dancing. Now that I’m leaving I’m certain that I will miss all of the classes and shows particularly our chats on a Saturday at Ballet in Carrick!!”

Our next Leaver of 2026 is Robyn McCarthy who has been a student at the school since she was 3 years of age.
Here are some words from Robyn about her time at the school and what dance means to her 💕 :

“It’s been 15 years since I first walked through the doors of Alison Cronin dance academy. 15 years might sound like a long time, but it has quickly slipped away in a blur of music, memories movement and love. The values I have gained from ballet and contemporary goes far beyond just technique and skill. Dance has thought me discipline, resilience, how rewarding hard work is and the importance of consistency. All of which I will carry with me for the rest of my life.
Dance has always been my escape, but especially the last few months with the stress of 6th year it truly has become e a crucial element of my routine. The friendships I have formed here will forever hold a special place in my heart, in the studio you get to know people in a very real way through both the hard work and the laughter in between.
Most of all, I would like to thank Alison and Jess. You believed in me even when I doubted myself, helping me grow not only as a dancer but as a person. Your dedication and consistency is inspiring. Although sadness lingers as my time here comes to an end, I have been given a passion for dance that I will continue to pursue through the next few years and I am forever grateful of that.”

Here are some words from Lucy about her time at the school and what dance means to her💕:

“I started ballet dancing when I was just three years old, and I have loved every minute of being apart of The Alison Cronin Dance Academy. Ballet has taught me many skills over the last 15 years. Dancing has taught me to be the best version of myself. I will be forever grateful for the opportunities Alison and Jessica gave me along the way. I have made lifelong friendships through ballet and my class will always hold a special place in my heart. The memories we have made in The Heritage Centre, Alison’s studio and the community hall are unforgettable and I will always cherish them.
Ballet has pushed me and motivated me to exceed my goals, whether it’s in dance, school, or life itself. Dancing here will always mean the world to me and I am so thankful for Alison and Jessica for putting in so much dedication for me and my love for dance.”

“I’ve been dancing here since I was 4 years old, and now that I am almost 18 years old it’s crazy to think about how soon my journey in this dance school will come to an end. Over the years I have loved all styles of dance but Contemporary really stood out to me. I have gained confidence and resilience not only because of dance but also because of our amazing teachers Alison and Jess.
Alison and Jess are incredibly passionate about dance, but they also genuinely care about each and every one of their students growth and happiness. I have made amazing friends and memories in the studio that I will cherish forever. Thank you Alison and Jess for all the love and care you have put into teaching us.”
