Starstruck Dance Challenge 2021

After a year of taking a break from dance competitions we started the 2021 season with a bang!

Our Showtime HMS competitors entered the Starstruck Dance Challenge in August and we were blown away by how outstanding they were. Two of our competitors, Htee Moo Wah and Miss Tylah, were even invited back by the judge to perform at the awards gala. The awards gala was full of excitement as we received three of the overall highest scoring awards and Miss Tylah won the "Personality Award".

Students that compete at external events learn their routines during private lessons with our teachers. They usually will work on the same dance for a couple of years to perform at the different events and competitions we attend. If you are interested in getting your child in to dance competitions please get in touch for further information.

Show Struck Dance Quest

In recognition of the inability of our students to compete in many competitions during 2020 Showtime HMS and Star Struck Dance Studio formed a private dance competition for both studios’ students. Students competed using their own choreography in front of family and friends at the Armadale Town Hall. We saw some amazing routines filled with creativity and entertaining performances from both studios. We are very proud of all students who got up there and showed us their love for dance with the results they achieved.

Some of our students from Showtime were selected from their impressive performances to showcase their routines at our annual end of year concert.

Junior concert selected routines:

  • Havana and Isabelle Jazz Duo
  • Braydee Audrain Contemporary Solo
  • Leah Booth Jazz Solo
  • Hteemoowah Hansen Hip Hop Solo

Senior concert selected routines:

  • Hayley Dorrington Contemporary Solo
  • Nivrithi Arun Hip Hop Solo
  • The Portier Family Trio

SDA Competition

This year the State Dance Association introduced a new competition for dancers all over Australia enabling them to submit videos of their routines in order to compete. We then all logged in to Zoom at the same time to watch all the other competitors and see the judges decision. Students spent time in the studio rehearsing and filming their routines with upmost professionalism. Our competitors made us extremely proud with their efforts in this new experience and achieved magnificent results!

Havana and Isabelle: Jazz duo, 1st Place
