Starting off the first half of our event is Patsy Pendergraft.
Patsy is a return contestant to Dance Yuma Dance and this year she’s up on stage doing an Irish Jig.
You know, the music is pretty catchy. Lots of people are clapping for her and also to the beat of the music. At the end of her performance the audience roared in the midst of the atmosphere she created.
She may be 71, but let’s face it, she’s still young!
Next up is Imagination’s Gone Madd.
They are are a trio of B-Boying, Poppin’ and Lockin’, and Hip-Hop fusion dancers who specialize in treating the audience to their stealth, finesse, and agility.
Kasey Turner (yes she’s next) is performing a Lyrical number.
I gotta say, I started clapping early in this number. This girl’s got talent. She expresses balance, poise, and true control of her limbs.
Downside to this is that her performance was way too short! Just as I was enjoying this, her number ended.
Amanda and Elizabeth:
This duo decided to do a Hip-Hop number. The music they chose to dance to had their audience clapping with them. The choreography they worked on is nice. I have to give it to them, it takes a lot to go up on stage and perform in front of an audience like this.
Girls just keep practicing. It can only get better.
Raushni Chopra:
Go Raushni! Go Raushni!
Raushni has decided to do an Indian Folkdance number. I’m sure a lot of you guys would try to call this Bollywood dancing…but it’s not. Bollywood came later.
Raushni is, in fact, dancing to a Bollywood number, but she’s dancing solo in traditional Indian garb.
Raushni, you have suceeded in captivating the audience in your outfit, dance, expression, and music.
Seriously I’m enjoying this way too much.
Heather Kennedy:
Heather is doing a ballet/jazz number to the popular song Apologize, by One Republic.
She looks a little nervous. But it takes real guts to go up there and finish out the performance. And that’s exactly what she did.
Danny Meza:
Danny is a return contestant from last year’s event. He decided to dedicate this number to his grandmother who past away recently. He’s doing a Reggaeton/Hip-Hop number. At the start of this performance he was coupled with another person who assisted in his performance by doing flips on stage.
Ok Danny, dance your heart out boy! He treated the audience to a number of varying music styles and even acted a little making his stage presence widely known.
Les Dancers:
This multicultural dance duo are quite confident on stage. Out of the duos that performed so far, these two show signs of hard practice hours paying off. They’re not scared one bit. They make eye contact with everyone in the audience practically telling you “hey, you’re going to like this! *insert confident smirk here*”
People, these ladies were a pure class act. High entertainment quality.
The White Castle Boyz:
We continue our wonderful journey in the various styles of music and culture by having this fusion act work the stage and the audience with their multi-faceted performance. The music only accented what these guys bring to the stage in terms of style. They also threw in a little acting as well.
With hip-hop, old skool, and some dance music thrown in, you could easily tell that these guys have definitely planned out and practiced their execution of their number.
But now for intermission and some audio interviews!
See you in 15!
