Spirit of Dance Day 2020
Our first Spirit of Dance Day took place in Burwash Village Hall on 1st March 2020 and what a great day we had!
A wonderful workshop to start the day with Burwash Musical Theatre to work on our performance and acting through dance skills, followed by lunch, a tap showcase by our fantastic tappers, IDTA exam medal presentation, Choreographic Cup and finally our awards given out for Spirit of Dance. A big thank you to all our lovely parents, grandparents and carers for all your help and support on the day and thanks also go to the judges of the Choreographic Cup for doing a wonderful job and supporting our dancers.
We loved seeing lots of the JCSD family together and hope to make it even bigger next year -
watch out for the date for your diaries!

Summer Dance Camp- in Burwash village hall
What a fantastic time we had! 3 days of non stop beach party dancing fun :-)
Everyone worked so well together and really got stuck in with learning new styles of dance, we even tried some Acro! The support from the seniors for the juniors was wonderful to see and proved what a lovely dancing family we have.
Look out for details of our October 'Strictly' themed dance day!
