Tiny dancer's collection of 295 trophies, aged 6

The pocket dancefloor rocket has already waltzed away with 295 medals and trophies. Now she is planning how to quick-step into a career performing on the top-rated Saturday night TV show.

The schoolgirl has inherited her nimble moves from her mum Tanya, a former dancer.

And unlike her older siblings Amelia, who idolises pros Amy Dowden, 34, and Dianne Buswell, 35, can't wait to foxtrot to Strictly fame.

Tanya, 40, said: "I've got three older girls who are now 22, 21 and 19 and a son whose 12 and I couldn't get any of them to dance.

"But finally, Amelia came along and from being able to walk, she's had rhythm."
