Eshowe High School’s talented dancers showcased South Africa’s incredible dance prowess at the UDO World Championship.
Durban, KwaZulu-Natal (25 August 2024) – If there’s one thing South Africans excel at, it’s dancing! Whether it’s a formal event, a casual gathering, or even just a spontaneous burst of movement, Mzansi people have a natural rhythm that’s hard to resist. Our ability to captivate an audience with our dance moves is just legendary.
Demonstrating this from a small rural town in KZN, were Eshowe High School’s talented dancers who brought immense pride to their school and country recently.
After successfully participating in Dance Sports School Leagues competitions, Amukelwa Xulu and Sifundo Mpungose aced provincials, made the all-star national team and went on to represent South Africa at the UDO World Championship in Blackpool, showcasing their exceptional skills and determination on the global stage.
According to the school, both Sifundo and Amukelwa also attended a capping ceremony in Durban, where they were recognised for their achievements.
They took to the skies on 12 August and competed on the world stage, showcasing their incredible moves and agility. The duo moved on to the semi-finals and Amukelwa also progressed to the semi-finals for his exhilarating solo performance.
They returned to South African soil on Tuesday 20 August where they received a warm welcome from their coach and dance team.
“We congratulate Amukelwa and the entire South African team for their outstanding performances and achievements. They have brought great honour to Eshowe High School, the Eshowe community and South Africa as a whole,” the school shared.
