The dancers performed their four-and-a-half-minute routine alongside professional NFL cheerleaders for the Dolphins and singer Jhayco.

The event was organised by Pro-Excel, who professionally choreographed mass movement productions in the sporting world.

Vice principal of BAD Charlotte West said: “This trip was an amazing opportunity for all the dancers. They were so professional and had the best time.

“They got to do what they love, dancing obviously, along with doing it all in Miami and staying on a beautiful resort on Hollywood beach. International travel as a dancer for this age group is just incredible.

“They got to rehearse on the beach and at the Miami Dolphins training ground with the Miami Dolphins cheerleaders which they were totally awed by. 

“As their teacher, I was extremely proud of them all and am so pleased that they will have these memories with them for the rest of their lives.

“These students and more will be working with Pro Excel again in March 2024 at the Tottenham Hotspurs stadium for the Saracens vs Harlequins showdown.”
