Arden Ambassadors of Dance
Kelsey, Imogen, Alice & Rebecca receiving their certificates
Mr Murphy presented another four certificates to worthy 'Arden Ambassadors'. Imogen, Alice, Rebecca and Kelsey were all recognised for their success in the field of dance.
Imogen Shepherd Roberts has been offered a place at Elmhurst School of Ballet, The Royal Ballet, English Youth Ballet and the Midlands Ballet. As she is currently in Year 11, she can only attend on the weekends and evenings to train but is hoping to go full time at the end of this year. In addition to this, she achieved the highest marks for her Royal Academy of Dance Intermediate Ballet exam which is a notoriously difficult exam to pass!
Alice Martin was offered a place at English Youth Ballet School & Midlands Ballet School. However, she is currently focussing on her Ballroom training where she was selected as the new partner for England's number one male ball room dancer. She competes on a regular basis at international level and is currently number one in England in a number of styles.
Rebecca Scott is an outstanding all round dancer. She regularly trains in ballet, tap, modern and theatre craft. However, it is in ballroom where she truly excels. Rebecca and her partner first appeared together on ‘Baby Ballroom', a documentary showing the world of ballroom dance. She regularly competes and comes first in international competitions. As well as being an outstanding performer, she is an excellent role model and gives freely of her time to run a ballroom dance club at Arden.
Kelsey Fryer is another ballroom dancer who competes at international level. Kelsey often competes in adult competitions and is often the youngest competitor, making it tough but also reflecting her ability as she regularly wins.
