THE culmination of a year’s worth of dedication and hard work came to a crescendo at the Masterpiece Dance end of year concert on Saturday November 12.
The sellout event saw over 300 students dance their hearts out in front of 1,300 spectators at the Glasshouse Christian College’s Performing Arts Centre.
Masterpiece’s Sarah Kwarcianyi said the concert’s ‘Inspire’ theme saw students step up with some challenging and skillful routines.
“It takes months of choreography, with our students starting concert preparation as early as Term 2,” she said.
“The teachers are so proud of every student who performed on stage, it takes many weeks of learning choreography and practice to get to the concert.”
Sarah said she loved seeing all her students perform, but said the youngster’s were particularly inspiring.
“Highlights for me are always seeing our three-four-year-old’s performing for the first time, our senior dancers and performance teams, but all students shine bright on stage,” she said.
Sarah reflected on the year for Masterpiece Dance, saying it was a big year for the studio as the region put Covid behind it.
“We started our first junior Acro performance team of 15 talented kids under the age of 10,” she said.
“All our performance teams had great success this year at eisteddfods, placing at every eisteddfod.
“We expanded into a third studio space and are working on a new website which will launch soon for 2023 enrolments.”
Term 1 officially begins January 30, 2023.
