North American Championships—July 2016, Orlando, Florida

Congratulations to the Murray Academy dancers, their parents and our teachers and trainers on the great success of our dancers at this year’s North American championship! We would especially like to congratulate our newest National Champion, Brigid O’Connor, Girls U11A, on winning her competition (with a nearly perfect score of 875 out of 900)!

Of our 44 soloists, 77% recalled (top half) and 27% placed high enough to qualify for the 2017 World Championships in Dublin (12 dancers). In addition, we had 7 dancers in the top 5 and 10 in the top 10.

We are so proud of our dancers for their goal setting, work ethic, and ability to perform under pressure. What amazing girls!
