How do you spell DanceElite? F-L-Y

The DanceElite girls from CK Danceworks competed at the Starbound National Talent Competition this Sunday in Atlanta. The girls rocked the stage winning Highgold for their production performance of Beautiful Girls. This high energy, action packed performance complete with dancing garbage cans and boyfriend showdowns left the crowd ( and all their parents) screaming! Here is a picture of the winning group with their funky fly girl costumes. The dance was choreographed by the Artisitic Director for DanceElite Christina Wiginton who could not have been more pleased with the performance. On stage these girls are nothing short of superstars. Way to go DanceElite!!!
