Dancers from South Africa can only compete at the DanceStar World Dance Masters 2018 in Croatia by qualifying at one of the DanceStar South African Qualifiers or qualifying the day before the main event in Croatia.
The tour to Croatia and attending the DanceStar Finals is really a spectacular once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the crew with the main goal being to learn and broaden their dance vocabulary through workshops and observing other styles of dance from the many countries represented there.
Prolepsis is hard at work, perfecting their routine and organising fundraising events to collect enough money for the entire team to go to Croatia. All the dancers are extremely excited, and winning a trophy or award at this level of competition will be the cherry on the top.
