A group of students from a West Highland dance school will be performing a piece at the Commonwealth Games International Youth Dance Festival.

The piece is choreographed by 17-year-old part time Ballet West student Caitlin Taylor.

It will be performed at the festival at the Tramway in Glasgow on July 12.

Caitlin is a dancer and singer/songwriter from Taynuilt, near Oban. She has been attending dance classes at Ballet West in Taynuilt since the age of three.

She will perform her piece with four other Ballet West students, Isaac Bowry, Maeve Hannigan, Carys Rimmer and Lucy Swietlickie. The theme of her work, Thirst, is “desire with a Scottish twist” said Caitlin.

She added: “I would like to say a big thank you to Ballet West for giving me this wonderful opportunity to get my work performed at this important event. Special thanks to my teachers, Kelly McCole and Amanda MacArthur-Sloss and to my family, especially my mum, for all their support” says Caitlin.

“I am a creative person, but I am not a ballerina. In the autumn I will be starting a BA Hons degree in Professional Dance and Musical Theatre at the Urdang Academy in London.”
