I would like to extend a huge thank you for the Starlight results! We are absolutely over the moon with the outcome and truly honored to have been part of such a wonderful online competition.

-Spirit Academy, Trinidad & Tobago
A HUGE thank you for such a wonderful event! So much positivity and encouragement! It also means so much to dancers to have such amazing awards and recognition. My daughter's studio has done some big virtual competitions at full in person comp prices and didn’t receive so much as a pin or ribbon. Having an amazing competition like yours that offers such amazing awards in every category has been the ultimate spirit lifter in my daughter. So just want to say thank you thank you thank you again!!!

I am so honored to be the 2024 Mini Miss Starlight World Champion! This competition has been a huge part of my 2024. They are 100% online which means as a young dancer I am able to compete with other dancers from around the world from the comfort of my studio recordings. The best part is that I get to share my love of dance with others and receive feedback from their distinguished judges who are from all over the world. Feedback is a gift and I take every word they say to heart to help me progress my dancing.

I love Starlight as I don't get the opportunity to compete due to my studio not having a competitive team! Starlight gives me the
opportunity to show what I can do in a way that is easier as it is virtual. I am so grateful for the opportunities that Starlight has given me!
