Legends Awards 2012

At the end of August we were invited to perform at and receive an award at the Legends Awards 2012 ( Lyric Theatre Gold reef city) for our contribution to the arts and for making a difference in South Africa. We felt both honored and humbled. We were asked to put together a 30 sec video clip of our accomplishments and how we have made a difference to show when receiving our award. Thank you to Big M productions for this honor.

We spent a day at the lyric theater rehearsing with Afrofusion Cast, which was really amazing, putting together some of our choreography with theirs( hopefully will post some of that soon). They were such a great group to work with. We also  had 4 minutes to show 4 different dance styles  of our own including costume changes, so here is our new Fusion Medley.

July and August

Some of our performances these last two months:
Moulin rouge Themed 21st.
Grease lighting Rock n Roll themed function: including teaching a Grease dance workshop
Masked Ball at University of Johannesburg  graduation cocktail party- performed Burlesque, CanCan and Latin/Samba .Was a lot of fun to do an extra Moulin rouge section wearing masks during the Fashion Show.

Finished 3 new Medleys: Hula fire with staff, Moulin Rouge, Samba and made 2 new costumes.
Flash mob: We had a great time doing our first flash mob with Adrelatin and have another coming up.

We've also been focusing a lot on our charity work with The Family Africa:

Performed 7 HIV education shows using drama and dance in Lenasia and made it in the papers.

Performed 3 benefit shows in townships for Mandela Day.

Gearing up for:
26th August: the Legends Award Ceremony at the Lyric theater, we'll be dancing along side some Bollywood stars and receiving an award.
27th August; going to KZN to perform more HIV/Education shows in township schools.
1st September: 2 different around the world shows and a Bolly show  21st birthday party.
2nd September: Syncopate 'The Carnival"

We've also been working hard on some contemporary routines for Concours Festival and National Championships.
Inspiration this month: we got to attend a sneak preview of Step up 4...aaaah seeing Twitch again was so inspiring, having a chance to be taught by him at the SYTYCD workshops earlier this year was the best......he should totally have been  the star of the movie.
