Dancer gets several awards
She entered in divisions for four dance styles at the competition.
Tshegofatso Tshoma (16) of Selcourt scooped up several awards at the Elite Dance Eisteddfod, recently held in Brakpan.
For tap dancing Tshoma won the awards for the best tap dance character and best amateur tap dancer.
She also won the trophy for the best amateur dancer solo, which she did in ballet when she portrayed Roxanne Moulin Rouge.
Further was she also under one of the top five dancers of the competition when she was the senior rising star for her modern dancing piece.
Tshoma also received the dedication trophy, which came to her as a big surprise.
She says she had been dancing since she as three years old.
She currently dances in tap, ballet, modern and contemporary with her teacher Lynn Cussack at In the Spotlight in Benoni.
She wants to go professional after school and would like to compete in the TV show You think you can dance SA.
And later in her life she wants to dance overseas, if possible.
