The International Dance Club, in Tregle dance studio, arranges each year an annual fundraiser to present the latest choreographic works of the club and to celebrate music and the art of dance.
This year, the club held its 35th annual dance and music celebration titled "All the Right Moves", showcasing a diverse assortment of dance styles ranging from ethnic, theatre, hip-hop and modern dances using entertaining and clap inducing dance sequences which are certainly worth your time.
Held in Warren Atherton Auditorium Saturday night, proceeds of the event fundraised scholarships and paid homage to the dance instructor and show director Linda Tregle who has led the dance club for many years. Linda leads and choreographs the club in her studio on Holt 402.
The night was hosted by Charles Tregle, who served also as the masters of ceremonies. He supplied the audience with comical relief during changeover periods along with his interesting insight on the Michael Jackson case and his past with Jackson's cousin Latoya.
The dances in the first set were exciting starting with the atmospheric/interpretive "You Raise Me Up" choreographed by Jewel Breau. The dance had an Enya-esque feel which started off the show well.
Trauma hip-hop dance team shortly followed with an electrifying performance, lighting up the stage with a well choreographed dance number, matched with exciting music. Shellea Allen, the lead choreographer of Trauma dance team and full time Delta student, talked about the positive nature of the night explaining that the Trauma team tires to convey a positive message through their dance. "We now try to send out a message in the dances....We try to find positive ways through the dance and bring out a positive message." Trauma dance team practices in the Tregle Studio and has been working with Linda Tregle for about 6 years.
The second set held more modern dances, none as electrifying as the Trauma set, but all in all a very solid set. The stage was a bit dim during some for second set performances but the stage crew did an amazing job as they silhouetted dancers during acts.
There was a lot of energy in many of the pop dances. Some weren't as polished as others but the dancers still seemed to have fun." It is just fun to be on stage and to dance your heart out....and if you mess up, just freestyle until you get on beat." said Vi Tran who danced in the show and helped choreograph the dance set "Passion".
The overall 23 dance acts were varied in style, but they all expressed the same positive theme throughout the show. Although some acts were tad bit over the top and some of the interpretive dances were difficult to comprehend but the overall experience was worth the $10. An encore show will be held in Saturday, April 30th in the Warren Atherton Auditorium at 7:30 p.m.
