World of Dance Championship 2017

World of Dance Championship 2017

We held the draw on Saturday and we now have the line up for the big night. Some competitors were delighted with their given style,  some had never tried that particular dance but were up for the challenge and some screamed in terror and prayed to a higher power for help.

Each dancer will perform a uniquely choreographed routine in the dance style that was chosen at random. They have just five weeks to learn and then perform it on Saturday 8th July at Phoenix. An independent judge will select the champion who will win the title of Phoenix Dance Studio’s World of Dance Champion 2017 which comes with a $1000 cash prize

Make sure to get your tickets for Saturday 8th July for a great night of dancing and to cheer and stamp and clap for everyone performing that evening.

So here they are, the brave and the bold:Untitled

THE TITLE OF PHOENIX DANCE STUDIO WORLD OF DANCE CHAMPION COMES WITH $1000 CASH PRIZE AND ETERNAL GLORY FOR THE VICTOR!

This years World of Dance Championship is starting to heat up as the entrants sign up to compete for the Title, the Glory and the $1000 cash prize.

We also have the first of our sponsors on board so we’ll start introducing you next week.

Here’s the rundown on how it works.

This championship is not for the faint hearted as every dancer has their achilles heel and even with the best laid plans there is no knowing which dance you’ll draw. Contestants have their dance drawn at our social dance at Phoenix dance studio on the 3rd June. Then they have just 5 weeks to perfect a dance showcase in that style to be performed in full costume on 8th July.

The 3rd June will be a great afternoon for a dance and also a good chance to chat with some of our suppliers and sponsors about dance wear and shoes. Everyone is welcome. Towards the end of the afternoon, dances will be drawn from a hat by our brave contestants to discover which particular dance they will be working on for the next 5 weeks of blood, sweat and tears!

Anyone can enter from any level, and the music, choreography and costuming is decided by their instructor in consultation with them.

Feel free to speak to any of our instructors if you want more details or if you have any questions about the World of Dance Championship. Half the spots are gone already so if you’re ready to go, excited and feeling brave then get your name down quick!

World of Dance Championship 2015

It’s nearly here!

Every year, we have our biggest night of dancing at the Phoenix Dance Studio World of Dance Championship with a cash prize for first place of $1000.

Entry is open to anyone taking lessons at Phoenix, even if you’re only taking those lessons to win the World of Dance Championship. Beginners to advanced dancers are all welcome to try, but entry is limited to just fifteen places and entry closes on 13th June 2015.

 So, what’s involved? What do you actually have to do to win $1000?

During our Salsa & Bachata Dance Party on 13th July we will match up each entrant with one of fifteen dance styles selected at random. Then they have the next five weeks to perfect a uniquely choreographed routine in that style and perform it on the evening of the championship. Don’t be nervous about entering, challenge yourselves and you’ll be amazed what you can achieve in a short period of time.
