"I really felt that my time at Southern Academy has taught me more about my life than anything I have ever done ... I learnt to always do your best and get the most out of it. Miss Breen helped us love dance and I still love her for that - so I try to give that to students I teach. Her teaching has helped me express my creativity and pass it on to many people around the world ... and I am truly grateful for what she has done."
