There was a lot of love for these young Tallaght dancers on TV3 last night
Last night was all about the glitz and glamour of Ballroom and Latin dancing on TV3, with local dancers from Xquisite Dance Studio in Tallaght featuring in the channel’s latest show, Dedicated To Dance.
As the name suggests, these youngsters are dedicated, training up to six times a week, and for those featured, the goal is to become the best.
Many of those on the show have already taken national titles, with some as young as 10-years-age, including Tadgh Woods and Naoise Hogan.
Meanwhile, Hannah Kelly and Sasha Savchenko travelled to the German Open to compete, and were the first Irish Juniors to do so in many years.
We were also introduced to Amy Boyle and Nikolai Winter, a newly formed partnership, who are just beginning their dance journey.
NIckolai has moved to Dublin from Denmark to seek out a career in dancing, and the couple performed brilliantly in their first competition.
There was huge admiration online for those featured too, with many amazed by the dedication shown by the dancers.
