It's been a long time without a competition in Victoria, the last one was the Australian Championships in December 2019. For some of the Just Rhythm couples, this was a fantastic chance to get back on the floor after a very long break, for other dancers it was their very first time out on the competition floor. With events split into single dances and no costumes, Kickstart Development Competition provided a great opportunity for dancers to try new routines (and new partnerships) after only a couple of months back into training. The energy throughout the room was fantastic across the three age group divided sessions, particularly the kids solo events where we had a floor full of Just Rhythm kids dancing. We're so proud of everyone and we look forward to seeing what the 2021 dance competition season brings.
