Just Dance! Company spent the weekend in Columbia at Revive Dance Convention and we are so proud of our dancers and their growth this year!
Nothing makes us more proud than when our dancers are recognized for being encouraging, positive, and respectful backstage, so we are thrilled that Just Dance! earned the Sportsmanship Award for the weekend!
Just Dance! also had the highest score of the competition for minis (Mr. Lonely), juniors (Egyptian), and seniors (I’m Broke). And Kassy Ladson was named the Teen Elite Honored Dancer — the highest possible individual honor. She can attend any Revive Dance Convention at no cost for the next two years and receives free entry to National Dance Honors. Congratulations Kassy!
