Young dancers deliver standout performances

The BeGraceful Studio dancers have had an exceptional season, showcasing their hard work, dedication, and talent at numerous competitions throughout the year.

With standout performances in modern, jazz, lyrical, solo latin and hip-hop, the team earned top placements at prestigious events, including On The Stage, TIME, Helderberg Eisteddfod and Move! National Dance Competition.

All the dancers qualified for Nationals at the Move! Competition and they brought home five Gold, two Silver and one Bronze medal, as well as six trophies for duets, trios and group numbers from that event.

Améli Jansen van Vuuren (Junior) and Moné Ehlers (Senior), who danced in the Solo Latin category, were both crowned National Winner for 2024.

These young dancers continue to raise the bar for what it means to be a part of BeGraceful Studio, and congratulations to the talented dancers, coaches, and supporters for making this season one to remember.
