GW Dance Teams REPRESENT


Student dance teams showcased their diverse talent on Thursday night in REPRESENT, GW’s fourth annual dance competition. Six teams, GW Rass, GW Ballroom, Capital Funk, GW Chamak, Balance, and GW Bhangra competed for a champion prize of $300.
The night began with the Colonial’s First Ladies in a dance traditionally performed on center court. Then, for a packed audience, the teams competed through two competitions, the individual and the group performances. After all the points were tallied, GW Bhangra came out on top. 
“I was so extited to see that Bhangra” said Saira Thandani, a sophomore, about the victors. “All the teams were really good, but it was clear who the winners were.”
Among the favorites were Bhangra, Rass, another Eastern style dance team, and Capital Funk, the hip-hop crew.
“Capital Funk always has the best performance,” said Kelly Schill, a freshman. “ever since I saw them at CI I have been in love.”
Kenny Cobbs, Class Council president and organizer for the show was pleased with the outcome.
“I am so happy my team and I were able to pull off a good show and bring out some school spirit,” he said.
