Meet the Cardiff team who danced their way to seven awards in York<\/h2>\n
\"\"

A Cardiff dance team have just secured seven awards in a competition held in York this Sunday. <\/span><\/p>\n

The team, Broadway Dance, won first place in the Advanced Tap Dance category, and placed 2nd and 3rd in six other categories. <\/span><\/p>\n

The competition saw Cardiff\u2019s team compete against dancers from the hosting University, York, along with teams who had travelled from Glasgow, Bradford, Bangor and Lancaster. <\/span><\/p>\n

Broadway Dance, who have been competing in inter-university competitions for three years, are linked to Cardiff University but offer membership and classes for the public as well as students. <\/span><\/p>\n

The classes cater to all abilities of dance<\/a>, from beginners to advanced performers, and offer classes in styles including Ballet, Tap, Modern, Irish and Street Dance. <\/span><\/p>\n

Gabriella Amos, Broadway Dance\u2019s president, said that the competition was a huge success and a brilliant chance for Cardiff\u2019s dancers to meet like minded, creative performers. Gabriella explained,<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAlthough the competition was competitive and challenging throughout the day, the hosts of the competition provided brilliant hospitality and we were surrounded by a friendly and supportive environment.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWinning is always an incredible experience, and the feeling of holding the 1st place trophy is like no other – it made the last minute rehearsals all worthwhile. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI am extremely proud of every single dancer and choreographer who attended the competition.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"

Rosie Fleming, a member of Broadway\u2019s committee and an audience member on the day of the competition, said that Cardiff\u2019s Trio routine, ‘Steam Heat’, \u00a0was a highlight of the day. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWatching Broadway perform at York was amazing\u201d Rosie explained. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe competition was extremely tough this year, with each team bringing their most talented dancers.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAll the dancers competing for Cardiff performed amazingly and rose to the occasion. <\/span><\/p>\n

Each win was very well deserved.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Timia Raven-Gregg, another committee member and competitor in the competition, explained that walking away with some of Broadway\u2019s biggest achievements to date made the early journey to York and weeks of training worthwhile. She said: <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe were all exhausted but had an absolutely fantastic time participating. <\/span><\/p>\n

“There was also the added bonus of walking away with one of Broadway\u2019s biggest wins yet, as well as one of our trios placing 2nd out of a massive 12 dances. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe look forward to our next competition in February, where we hope to continue our success.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n
