Viking Spirit Dancers Make History

March 28, 2018

The Vikings Spirit Dance Team participated in the Houston regional groove competition this weekend. It was the first competition that The Village School dance team has ever participated in. At this competition there were over 500 routines entered from Friday through Sunday. It was broken up into different experience levels and 20 different categories such as hip hop, ballet, jazz, tap, lyrical, pom, contemporary, open, acro, production etc..to name a few. Our team competed in the senior large group novice level since this team hasn't even been around 5yrs yet. There were 3 judges, each who could give a maximum score of 100 for a possible total combined adjudicated score of 300. Each judge critiqued the routine on Technique 1-45, Execution and Showmanship 1-45, and costume and choreography 1-10. I am not sure of the exact score yet because they release all of that within 2 to 3 wks after the competition, but we received a High Gold, 1st place award in the large group senior "pom" division, and a 1st place overall in the senior large group division. Therefor, I am assuming that our score was pretty high. Thank you for your support!

**If you missed it, don't worry! Our annual spring show is right around the corner on Friday, April 13, at 6pm in the New Gym. There will be pretty costumes and they will be performing their award winning competition pom routine along with routines in samba, contemporary, jazz funk, lyrical and hip hop styles. The middle school spirit dancers will also be a part of this show along with a special appearance from the famous movers and shakers dance crew. If you missed them at the breast cancer game here is your 2nd chance! So please come out and show your support for the girls who have been supporting the teams since August as they do what they love. It will definitely be entertaining, and its free admission! Thanks for your support!

If you see these girls please join me in congratulating them...
