cant believe kelsie & finley are on senior line now and sav jackson is on jnr line. also malia being old enough to be jnr line captain has really aged me

[p21jazzqueens]

who else left larkin as they said also Bella?

I didn't see Lilly or laci in the photos

laci was there but not in the senior line pic for some reason. chelsea posted a video and bella is there so she’s still at larkin! i think lilly left

[gracefuldancers]

EMILY POLIS OFFICIALLY AT CLUB ITS IN HER BIO

[gracefuldancers]

CLUB WON WITH THIS OMG

[p21jazzqueens]

guys it was kaitlyn tran that I just saw on my local news. she was featured in a news article as one of the six senior students in the district graduating high school with a perfect 100% average. ⭐️⭐️ it literally came up as a suggested google article and her picture was in the headline. i was shocked that i recognized her after all these years but it was like a distant memory unlocked in my brain and best of both worlds started playing in the back of my head. Go prodigy, go!

amazing!!!

[gracefuldancers]

AWWW GO KAITLYN!!!

[teambriarx]

is Bree Batstone competing age 14 or 15 this past season I cant find it anywhere someone on reddit said she's class of 2028, idk why I thought she was the same age as finley and regan

[gracefuldancers]

i know that she has a september birthday so if she was in the us she could have been class of 2029. does anyone know how the canadian school cutoffs work?

[gracefuldancers]

the way that osu's next rookie class could have 4 former best dancers

[gracefuldancers]

i would love to see the scifres at dc2

Also while were at I wanna address something else that others me. repeat winners ≠ favoritism - a dancer worked their butt off and ended up at the top of their division. After taking a year to tour and keep learning, they still remain at the top of their age category - is it that hard to understand? New winners show improvement, repeat winners show consistency - 2 things that we should celebrate instead of making a fuss over. please stop saying that compeitions favor certain people cuz imagine how it would feel to work your butt off to stay on top just to have people calling your hard work "favoritism"

Stars is INSANE!!

sophie and nick got to pass their titles down to giselle and kylan!! It was so sweet watching them hug

teen too! they got kylee and santiago handed their titles to bella and neo!

also here are some crazy stars pass downs

Teen: Giselle & Kylan -> Kylee & Santiago -> Bella & Neo

Senior Male: Sam -> Jackson -> Nick -> Kylan

they are currently 5/6 and this is their third year in a row coming back with 5 titles (maybe more this year)! also i think its worth pointing out that Miami is 6/6 in best dancer and 3/3 in groups lol

[gracefuldancers]

actual insanity

[myarunstheworld]

Kylee passing the title to Bella omg I’m emo

[gracefuldancers]

always love watching the senior female top 10 announcements 🥺 everyone is just so happy and excited for each other
