Born to Perform - ComDance Wrap up Blog Post
Our first time competing in Born to Perform -ComDance and what an incredible experience we had!
Our solo students have given absolutely everything this week in all their performances and we could not be more proud
We cannot express how proud we are of every single dancer in our competition team, you all put everything on the stage and gave your all in your performances. You showed us true teamwork and camaraderie, whilst exhibiting all the hard work you’ve put into your classes with beautiful technique and artistry.
In huge sections with outstanding talent we are so proud of every single dancer and their grace, attitude, dedication to their craft and work ethic The way all our JOKSOD students conducted themselves was a testament to our beautiful and supportive culture we always aim to foster. The prizes are a bonus!
Our amazing JOKSOD community was again the wind beneath our wings. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts to all our parents for all you did for our dancers this week. Thanks to those special parents who go above and beyond to help with all the costume organising, making props, delivering props and those that are always on hand to help. You are so valued and appreciated.
To our JOKSOD teachers, we cannot thank you enough for all you do and for all your efforts to be there for our dancers this week - plus your expert training and genuine love and care for all our dancers.
And to my mum Zan for always being our number 1 fan and my biggest support, traveling such a distance to watch our students perform!
