Singapore Dance Delight returns bigger and tougher

Firstly thanks to F&N once again for being the presenting sponsor for Singapore Dance Delight Vol.2! This Youth Street Dance competition returns bigger and tougher this year!

Singapore Dance Delight is one of the rare recent events that has galvanized youth from all walks of life to come together in celebration of dance and being young. Singapore Dance Delight Vol. 2 promises to be bigger & louder with almost double the number of crews registered – 46 up from last year’s 28! This year’s entries will see teams from the Philippines, Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia!

Last year’s competition had set the bar really high so this year you will expect to see greater choreography, tighter routines & more outrageous outfits! The judges this year we have Kenny Low, Founder, O School; Ryan Tan, Creative Director, O School; and Hu Pei Zhen aka An An from Da’ Street Soulz (Funkamania 2006, Champions).

Last Saturday (26 Feb 2011), I was at Scape and did a Media Coverage for the Singapore Dance Delight Vol .2 Preliminaries and I must said it is sure a MUST SEE event of the year even though the rain had caused some delay to it! But over 1000+ youths stayed on to watch the show till the end.

If you did not managed to make it to the event, don't worry there is still another Finals Round at Wavehouse to see the dancers compete on stage. They will then be judged on their technical abilities, showmanship, musicality, originality and professionalism.

The winners of Singapore Dance Delight Vol. 2 will win a 3D2N round-trip (air tickets and accommodations) to compete in Dance Delight Vol. 18, which will be held in September, 2011 in Osaka, Japan. $30,000 worth of prizes will be awarded to the top three winners of Singapore Dance Delight Vol. 2.

I took some photograghs and videos on Saturday Prelims too and I would like to share this with you all.

Scroll down to find out which are the 40 teams that danced on stage and also which are the team that danced their way to the Finals!

F&N Outrageous Orange- my FAVOURITE

4.45pm: As you can see from the picture above, the crew are all busy cleaning up the stage due to an early rain before the event.

Everyone busy trying their best to dry up the whole place, making it a comfortable place for the audience and supporters to stay on to watch the performance.

Thanks to them for the hard works! =)

BUT sad thing is...

The rain came back again soon after they clean up the place!
