Dancers from Stepping Out with Clare Walton attended Diva 17 which is a huge freestyle event in Bridlington where dancers battled it out for the title.  The dance school had many successes where dancers achieved many recalls, semi finalists and finalists with their small but mighty squad.  Brother and Sister Dylan and Faith Jones both won their solo sections which meant they had to dance off for the over all grand prize which was a trip to Florida.  Both dancers executed excellent performances along with other very talented dancers and were extremely pleased with themselves, as were the teaching team at Stepping Out.

Then came results time as the whole squad sat waiting on tender hooks to see who would get the once in a lifetime trip. To everyone’s excitement it was announced Dylan Jones had won the overall Beginner of the Day winning an all expenses trip paid to Florida, Universal Studios – WOW! Dylan’s team, parents and teachers are so proud of Dylan and not forgetting his little sister Faith who certainly gave him a run for his money. How wonderful is it to have such talent here in our home town of Newton Aycliffe, fantastic!
