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

World of Dance Championship 2017

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!

Showcase Challenge!

Miriam Combs on July 16, 2014

Showcase Challenge is getting close!

The first week and a half of choreography and rehearsal has gone flying past already. It’s all very exciting putting it all together. We’ve got students working on routines for Cha Cha Cha, Waltz, Samba, Rumba, English Tango, Salsa, Quickstep, Jive, Merengue and Swing! Each of these dance styles have their own unique challenges and each of our dancers is having a unique showcase routine choreographed for them. Any time your in at Phoenix Dance Studio you’ll see people working hard on their dances for 9th August.

Remember, if you don’t have your tickets for the Showcase Challenge night yet or are likely to need more, get them sorted out quickly as this one is likely to be a sold out event. Just talk to your instructor or call the studio and we can help you arrange that.

It’s been great to see everybody pushing themselves, whether it’s with a favourite style or something a bit out of the comfort zone, all the entrants are really going for it.

See you on the dance floor.
