In April 2012 Lewis entered a competition over three weekends consisting of Ballet, Acro and Modern coming 2nd1st and 2nd respectively and also picking up three trophy’s one for best acro solo one for best boy and one for most promising junior dancer.

Well done Lewis, keep up with the good work !!!
