SOUTHEND and Benfleet kids dance their way to triumph at a top international dance competition.
Youngsters Georgia Jenkins and Will Grant, both 11, took home a silver medal for Great Britain at the Ballroom and Latin World Cup in China.
It comes as they have reeled in success at dozens of competitions this past year to reach the highest honour of representing their country as part of the world cup squad.
Whilst in China, the talented youngsters also participated in the China Open and took home both 4th and 7th in their individual tournaments.
They consider themselves to be “incredibly lucky” to receive support from private school Thorpe Hall.
With the pair dedicating over 16 hours per week to their training schedule, the facilities have been “transformative” to them.
The use of their phenomenal facilities was offered to the youngsters when they recently performed for Simon Cowell in BGT.
