MID KENT JUNIO DANCE FESTIVAL
Welcome
Welcome to the very first Mid Kent Junior Dance Festival and today's performance showcase.
The last time our performers were all together was at our workshop session in March. We are thrilled to welcome everyone back to Ashford School to see how the dances have evolved.
The theme of this first festival is ‘Heroes, Villains and Icons’ and the style will be a fusion of street, hip hop and contemporary.
Irena Cuturic
The Mid Kent Junior Dance Festival is delighted to be working with Irena Cuturic for our inaugural event. Originally from Croatia, Irena was a member of RiS Dance Centar, training in street, modern, and contemporary dance. Her performance repertoire includes notable events like Miss Universe Croatia, Dancing With The Stars, Cro-a-porter fashion show, and music videos for Severina (“Brad Pitt”) and Damir Kedzo (“Ronim na dah”)
In 2016, Irena relocated to London, joining the renowned street dance company Boy Blue Entertainment. Some of her credits include various performances and projects with Boy Blue, such as the Edinburgh International Festival, Breakin Convention, the film REBEL, Queen’s Platinum Jubilee, BBC’s The Greatest Dancer with Anne-Marie, and more.
Off the stage, Irena shares her expertise by teaching street and contemporary dance at Highgate School and One Youth Dance –a youth dance company dedicated to providing training of the highest quality for aspiring dancers aged 13 to 19.
