A teacher leading a Southport dance class where three young girls were stabbed to death has told LBC the experience led her to “lose faith in the world”.
Yoga teacher Leanne Lucas was overseeing the Taylor Swift-themed dance class at the Hart Space in Southport on on July 29 when the attack happened.The tragic incident claimed the lives of three of those taking part: Elsie Dot Stancombe, 7, Bebe King, 6 and Alice Aguiar, 9.
She said: “I try to resemble it as us being connected by an invisible piece of string. We’re all connected in the most horrible way. “Sometimes that string will tangle, fray and knot, but at the best of times, it’ll wrap together and it has brought a lot of us closer. “It’s created kindness and warmth, and created a strong force that we couldn’t have imagined would be possible out of something so horrific.
