"Carnival in the Air"

Aerial Hoop Summer Showcase 2026

Join us on Tuesday 7th July for a bright, energetic end-of-year performance from our Aerial Hoop students.

  • Costume for the Summer "Carnival in the Air" Showcase

    For this showcase, students will wear:

    • Black leotard
    • Black shorts
    • Hair in a bun
    • Face gems (see image)
    • Small feather hair clip, securely fastened (see image)
    • Ribbon arm bands (purchased in bulk by BDPA)

    We will be providing rainbow ribbon arm bands for all dancers to ensure consistency and safety for aerial hoop. 


    We feel this is the easiest and most consistent option for parents; however, payment must be made in advance to allow time for ordering and delivery.


    Cost of ribbon arm bands: £6.99 per dancer


    Payment deadline: Monday, 8th June 2026

    Please see the image provided for the look we are aiming for.


    Parents/Dancers will be asked to choose any feather hair clip colour to match the ribbon arm bands from the colours shown in the example image.


    Ribbon arm bands must be purchased in advance to take part in the showcase.


    To make payment for the arm bands, please use the following button below:

     

    Important order deadline

    Ribbon arm bands must be ordered and paid for by Monday 8th June 2026. The full order will be placed on Tuesday, 9th June 2026.


    Any payments received after this date will be treated as a late order and will incur an additional £3.99 delivery charge for a separate order.


    Please note that no ribbon arm band orders will be placed after 23rd June 2026, as they may not arrive in time for the showcase.


    Thank you for your understanding.

    This helps us prepare properly and ensures the showcase runs smoothly for everyone.

  • Important - If unable to perform on the day

    If your child is unable to attend the showcase, please inform their teacher as soon as possible. Every student plays an important role, and advance notice helps us plan effectively.


    We’re really looking forward to celebrating the end of the 25/26 season with this fun, colourful performance and sharing everything the students have been working on.


    Thank you, as always, for your continued support.
