POLOKWANE – The dancers from Vida Dança took center stage on Saturday, 10 February at the Miss Face of Savannah pageant.
The Vida Dança dancers performed 10 items during intervals at the pageant and Review caught up with Lesedi Phoko and Angelica van Tonder to talk about their love for dancing.
“I enjoy dancing for the crowd because the more I perform for the public, the more confidence I gain to perform for a big crowd,” Lesedi said.
Angelica says she always has fun on the dance floor. “It does get tough and hard sometimes when we perform but it’s always fun,” Angelica added.
