A DANCING duo were celebrating after one of their talented squads claimed third place in a national competition.

Sister Sara and Emma Titchen, who opened Vibe Dance School three years ago, were full of praise for the Mini Competition Squad after the group picked up another trophy in the hip hop category in the Showbiz UK Grand Finals at the Echo Arena.

The team, who has an average age of six, qualified for the finals in October.

Sara said: ''It's an amazing achievement not only for the students involved but for everyone in the dance school gaining qualification recognition to be in our second final in less than nine months.

"It was a great honour for Vibe Dance which we will cherish for a long time to come."

Preparations for the next set of competitions are already under way.
