Wow! We were blown away by everyone who joined the ‘TIKTOK FOR TERRY’ fundraiser workshop! 💜

It was great to have his lovely little niece joining us too, doing Uncle Terry so proud! ✨

Thank you for all the donations 💜 There are still a few coming in, so we will update with the total raised at the end of the week ✨

And special thank you to @dancecostudios, Create Projects Studio & Jonathan Mawson for collaborating with PopGems Academy to do something special for our dear friend Terry 💜

🎶💜 TikTok for Terry 💜🎶
My whole heart hurts to say this (& I still don’t believe it), but we very sadly lost our close friend Terry Mills, to covid & pneumonia last Wednesday, after a 2 week battle in Mexico. It really was that quick. He was a celebrity agent, on his way to the USA for business, and had to stop via Mexico due to the latest restrictions.

You may have been following the story already if you saw the fundraiser shared on our social media pages, or may even have seen it in the press 💔

We are totally devastated and just cannot believe this has really happened. Terry was one of our closest friends, and has always been a huge supporter of everything we’ve ever done including PopGems which he was very proud of. One of the last things I told him, was how well you were all doing at your online classes in 3rd lockdown.

We would love to do something in his memory, to help add to the fundraiser to get him back to the UK, and hope lots of you will join us.

✨💜 ‘TIKTOK FOR TERRY’ 💜✨

We have teamed up with ‘Create Project Studio’ charity run by @dancecostudios, to run a fundraiser workshop called ‘Tiktok for Terry’ taught by the amazing Jonathan Mawson. (Aimed at 7yrs+)

The workshop is being held on Monday 15th Feb (half term) at 1pm on Zoom, and a donation of £5 will secure your space.

*This workshop is open to anyone. You don’t need to be a member of PopGems*

All donations will be collected by @dancecostudios, and then they will transfer over to Terry’s Gofundme page all together.

(If you are a PopGems member, donation details are on our app. If you are not a member, we can send you details of how to book and donate. ALL WELCOME FOR THIS WORKSHOP)

Let’s make this the biggest and best TikTok class ever, and dance for our Terry.

Let me know if you are up for it, and even if not if you aren’t the right age etc, please post some Purple Hearts for him. Purple was his colour, and Purple Hearts will always remind us of him 💜💜💜💜💜

We love seeing our students express themselves during their classes each week. We might not be physically together in the studio, but we are still very much TOGETHER ❤️ The regular personal interaction, routine, as well as exercise, is so important for children’s mental health ✨ We are always here to support our students and families ❤️

It’s so important for children to keep moving, keep a routine, and keep that interaction going as best as possible especially at a time like this.

Well done grown ups for continuing to support & encourage your children in these testing times at home 🥰

We love this little insta video sent to us by Harper’s mummy. Thank you for sharing ✨

It means so much to be getting so much positive feedback from our PopGems families. Such a lovely message from a Tuesday Mum about breaking up the remote school learning. It really is is so important for the children ❤️

We also had a Dad pop onto the screen last week to say hello to us, and said ‘It’s brilliant. PopGems is what makes Saturdays worthwhile’✨ How lovely! We then said he can stay and join in if he likes, but his daughter couldn’t push him out of the room quick enough 😂

Please pray for our good friend Terry Mills 🙏🏼 He is the biggest supporter of everything we do at PopGems, and now he needs our support too ❤️

Please click the link to read the story so far. We are blown away at the support so far both from people that know him, and those who have never met him. Absolutely restoring out faith in humanity at such a devastating time and we are so thankful 🥰 ✨

We have a special guest from Arendelle dropping into our Wednesday morning classes today, to see how our littlest stars are doing in lockdown! ❄️ She can’t wait to meet you guys ⛄️✨ #lockdown #frozen #elsavisit #zoomclass #arendelle #elsa

Lovely feedback from a parent after a Zoom trial 🤩

(Note - Our PopGems Zoom classes are kept small to ensure that every child gets the personal interaction they deserve from their teacher and class friends, making the experience is as close to being ‘face to face’ in the studio as possible. Classes will transfer back to the studios as soon as possible, but in the mean time, we can’t ask for more than this! ✨ )
