Thank you Golden Dance Awards. Such a gorgeous surprise. My heartfelt thanks to all our students and families, past and present, for your loyalty and support. Cork School of Dance would not be what it is today if it wasn’t for you all. Thank you for entrusting your children to us. It’s an honour and privilege. We had a great year in the school and have a great new school year planned. This is a lovely way to close out the school year and look forward to the year ahead. Thank you, I’m truly humbled

ISTD, Imperial Classical Ballet Awards…always a special event and occasion. Honoured as always to have been invited to teach a class at the Live UK Finals at Central School of Ballet today.

With entries across the world from Belgium, Canada, China, Guernsey, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Jersey, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Singapore, Spain, USA, and Vietnam this was a great achievement for Lily. Thank you ISTD and ICB for all the great opportunities for our students and teachers from all around the world. We truly are a global community.

Our show opens tonight! Toi toi toi to all our wonderful students. I am so mindful that we are carriers of an incredible legacy left to us. The values and traditions of the past are respected and carried through the school while we embrace the current era. This is reflected in our show and among all our students. We would not be where we are today without the wonderful people who have gone before us. We will continue to treasure and value history while we educate the next generation to embrace and acknowledge the past and the present in harmony. Here’s to all our students who will take to the stage this weekend , have a wonderful time making your memories. Treasure them all.
