Benoni’s Viné Erasmus (10), a student of The Dance Company SA, dazzled at a national dance competition in September and, as a result, has landed herself the opportunity of a lifetime.

At the Dance Talent and Model Association SA (DTMA) Nationals, the young dancer was the overall pre-junior winner with the highest score of 95.5%, the overall pre-amateur lyrical winner and the overall pre-amateur Acro winner.

These achievements secured her a place at the Galaxy of the Ocean International DTMA competition, set to take place on the MSC Armonia from January 24 to 29 during a cruise to the Portuguese Islands.

In addition, Viné qualified for a Disney World trip to Orlando from June 24 to 29 through Dance Connection.
