Ms Julia and Aerin Chow
With the 2019 Surrey Festival of Dance conflicting with our Spring Break and the Youth American Grand Prix Finals in New York City, our participation was very limited. The two groups and solo entries we did have in the Ballet section represented themselves and our School beautifully.
Our two groups were both performed by our Half Day Ballet Professional Training Division. “Point(e) Made,” choreographed by Jocelyn Wozencroft was awarded 1st place for Group Ballet 15 years with a mark of 97%; “Under the Moonlight,” choreographed by Cori Caulfield, was awarded 1st place for Group Contemporary Ballet 15 years with a mark of 98%.
Both of our groups have been offered full scholarship from Surrey Festival of Dance to compete in the No Borders Group Dance Challenge, May 11, 2019.
