What an incredible way to end the season…

Steady Bear 26, where do we even begin? We couldn’t be prouder of every single athlete on this team. The dedication, resilience, determination and heart you’ve shown all season has been nothing short of inspiring. This season has been one to remember. Every training session, every challenge and every performance has led to this moment, and you should all be so proud of everything you’ve achieved together.

From being just a small team from Barlborough with big dreams, we’ve grown into something so much bigger than we ever imagined. Watching this team develop, grow in confidence and achieve things we once only dreamed about has been so special. We are so, so happy and incredibly proud of how far this team has come.

Receiving an At Large Bid to IASF Worlds is something we’ve dreamed of, and we still can’t quite believe it’s real. A huge thank you to @futurecheeruk for believing in our team and giving us this amazing opportunity. We are beyond grateful!!!

Yesterday marked the final competition of the season at Future Cheer Internationals in Bournemouth, and what a way to finish. We couldn’t have asked for a better ending to such a special season!

Steady Bear 26, you’ve made memories that will last a lifetime. We can’t wait to watch this team continue to grow✨

A very special thank you goes to our incredible coach @louisedurrant23 Thank you for believing in us, pushing us to be better every single day, and never giving up on us even when things got tough. None of this would have been possible without your passion, commitment and belief in every athlete on this team. You’ve helped turn our dreams into reality, and we truly can’t thank you enough. We are so lucky to have you leading this team, and we can’t wait to continue this journey together.

We also want to give a massive shoutout to @bellatrix_dancecompany Your support, kindness and genuine excitement when we received our bid meant the world to us. The atmosphere was incredible, and moments like that remind us what this community is all about. Wishing you all the best!!🫶🏽

The journey doesn’t stop here… IASF, we’re coming!!!🇺🇸🌎💜 taken in Bournemouth by @louisedurrant23

Thank you for the memories 🫶🏽❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 As a truly unified team, TE Jazz brings together athletes from across England, from different styles, training backgrounds and programs. They forge friendships, reach new heights in their technical training and they weather challenges together. Being selected for Team England is the greatest honour & commitment but the greatest payoff. ICU Worlds is where we see the result of the whole season’s journey with mentoring, the grind and the dedication.

WHAT A DAY! 🥹♥️🌎

I want to give the biggest shout out to this incredibly resilient and talented team, who fought for their lives in their finals performance today and jumped 3 places in the toughest jazz division! 6th IN THE WORLD 🥹! I’m so unbelievably proud! Thank you to every single athlete on the team who has worked so hard this season with positivity, commitment and drive- it’s not been easy, but look how far you have all come! I am so so proud ♥️

The coaching team this season has been a dream and I count myself so lucky to be able to work with such inspirational and talented women every month!

@becky_mancini25 thank you for bringing your knowledge, creativity and passion to the routine, for supporting me and for encouraging me to just give every crazy idea a go! The parts of the routine that we collaborated on are some of my favourite moments and I’m so grateful to have had the opportunity to finally coach and create with you ♥️

@coach_laura_h I have loved every moment of working with you! Your technical knowledge, your drills, your understanding of how to use the floor, visuals, scoresheets and rules- I have learnt so much from you! Your inspirational voice notes to the team before they stepped onto the floor were exactly what we all needed! Our socials would also be non existent without you, so thank you for keeping them alive 😂! ♥️

@sjsnorkle not many people will understand the amount of work that goes on behind the scenes to keep this national team running and you are smashing it! Not only have you managed this team to another 6th place, you have also given so many dancers the opportunity to experience dancing on the world’s stage! The way you have led the team this week through the tough training sessions and the highs and lows has been incredible and it’s because of this that our team were able to fight their way up the rankings today! I’m so proud of everything you have achieved and so grateful for the opportunity to be a part of it ♥️

Honestly- what a day, what a week, what a season!

To the best team- I am beyond proud of you all, I hope you all realise how talented and incredible you all are ♥️ by @louisedurrant23

ITS OFFICIAL! We’re 6th in the World - climbing a whopping 3 places from semi-finals with a big increase in score! The judges loved our choreography, staging and the fun high-energy, classic jazz vibes we bought to the finals floor ✨This equals our highest previous placings from 2024 and 2019.

Thank you to our athletes, coaches, families, supporters, sponsors and @sportcheerenglandofficial

These guys 🥹 what a team! Qualified through to finals in 7th place at the @allstarworlds championships and finished in 4th up against incredible teams in an extremely tough division! I’m beyond proud of you @teamsteadybear 💙 Thank you for all of the hard work that you have put in so far this season! Your fight and resilience really did pay off!

To the guy working the event who praised us for bringing the culture and authentic hip hop styles to our routine - thank you so much for your comments! I can’t tell you how much that meant to me and my team, the lift that this gave them for finals and the confidence it gave me to stick to what I know!

Big thanks to every person at the event who stopped my team to praise their blue suits 😂💙

Seriously- what a division! Every team smashed it 🔥

Feeling so inspired and proud right now 💜💙 ready to finish off the rest of the season with a bang! 💥 by @louisedurrant23
