Family & Friends of The Academy,
WOW WOW WOW!!! 50 dancers from The Academy just returned home from the 2020 Mid-America Regional Championships!
What an amazing weekend it was, from our first time dancers, to those defending their titles, we are so proud of everyone!
This year has been especially challenging and we are so impressed with the dedication and commitment shown by all of our dancers.
Yet again, the results spoke for themselves as we came out #1 in Mid-America, winning SIX, 1ST PLACE SOLO TITLES!!!
The Academy 2020 Mid America Oireachtas Statistics:
*6 Regional Champions
*17 dancers in the top 5
*25 dancers in the top 10
*1 in every 3 Academy dancers ranked in the top 5 in the ENTIRE REGION
*1 in every 2 Academy dancers ranked in the top 10 in the ENTIRE REGION
This year, we celebrated our 10th year of attending the Mid America Regional Championships since we established 'The Academy' in Ohio after moving from England. This year, we are celebrating our FORTY EIGHTH 1ST PLACE SOLO TITLE!!! That's 48 REGIONAL TITLES IN SOLOS in just ten years! That does not even include the many many many team titles that The Academy has won in the last ten years as well. We are just so, so unbelievably proud of everyone!!!
Special Congratulations to Lochlan Howard and Evan King who came 1st AND 2nd in the under 16 Boys section and also, Elise Miklos and Bailey Rodgers who came 1st AND 2nd in the under 14 Girls section!!!
Thank you to our Co-Teachers: Molly McCreary and Mary Caitrin Lynch for their hard work and support this year. Additionally, a big thank you to Mary Caitrin Lynch and former Academy Regional Champion, Brenna Pfriem, who did hair and makeup for our dancers at the event this year and made them look amazing! We love you!
Although it has been a tough year, we are so glad so many of our students were able to make it count for something and compete at the Regionals this year. We cannot wait to see what next year brings...we have many new and exciting ideas planned already!!!
Thank you again to our parents and dancers for all your hard work and dedication!
Lots of love, Byron & Ed
