Hip Hop Champion!

Hi, I'm Kaysen, a year 8 student in Room 21 at Tahuna. I recently competed in the 2024 IMPACT regionals competition for Hip Hop Dance. This was my very first time doing a solo because last year I did a duo with Tuki. We got 2nd! The organiser of my dance company only gave me three weeks to learn choreography and perform my dance solo. Interestingly, the other dancers  got at least 1-2 months! The IMPACT competition was located in Christchurch. I went up against six other girls and I was the last soloist to perform. I received an excellence award and I did get the chance to compete in the nationals. I received great feedback from the judges and they said that I was very good and unique. I actually missed out on the regional competition because I broke my collar bone and if you were selected you could compete in Sydney, But soon I'll be back going to as many comps as I can!
