Achievement: Urban Elite @ GUIdANCE Benefit Concert

For the first time, the Urban Elite (Alumni Arm of the UPLB Street Jazz Dance Company) was given the chance to perform in front of a dance community. Not just a common dance community but I can say it's a competitive one because of the presence of Jay Mastah, Musiqality, UPM Indayog, Unschooled and a whole lot more.


Upon knowing this, we prepared very well for our routine. Following the Christian song requirement, we had to create a story in the routine to show in the end that what we need is God to rise up from all the hardships. We gave up our weekends and even weekdays (after work of course) for training up to 11 PM at the latest just to perfect the routine.  Our routine is composed of:


Never Ever
You Belong with Me
G is for Girl
Get Buck in Here
Bleeding Love
We Need you (Christian song)


It was a fulfilling night because we received good feedback from the organizers. Although we know that it's not our best (because we only finished the routine the night before), it was glad to know that people appreciated it and understood the story. Haha.


I'm hoping for upcoming gigs for us, since there were audiences from different dance groups. Hope they invite us next time they have concerts or events.
