Samantha and Team Canada Worlds

Donation protected










Sam is proud to have the opportunity to represent Team Canada Dance this November in Reissa, Germany at the World Dance Competition. 

Going to such a venue comes at a cost and she is looking at raising funds to help her get to her final goal. 

This year Sam has been off to a great start where she travelled to New York in July for dance, honored to represent Chilliwack Lions Festivial BC as the provincial Rep for modern/contemporary in Kamloops end of May, she also received the Aborignal Youth Artistic Achievement Award in May, and now has the opportunity to represent Team Canada for Showdance.

While attending Grade 11 Sam has maintained an 88% average while dancing between 30-40hrs a week. She is proud to dance with RNB Dance in North Vancouver,BC. as part of their Peak Performance Program. Due to her dance schedule and academics it is very difficult for Sam to find a job that can accomodate this kind of training schedule and starting in August training for Worlds begins. This is why she is looking at your help to raise funds for Reissa, Germany. Major sponsors are always welcome and very much appreciated.

Team Canada is a non profit organization so receipts are available on request but keep in mind this not a charitable organization.

Dance is not recognized in Canada as a Sporting Event, even though many of these dancers train up to 7 days per week, they are as flexible as any gymnast, as graceful as figure skaters and as dedicated as any Olympic athlete.    Dancers of this caliber have trained for hours and hours and will represent our Country with pride at the World Level.  Each dancer is required to raise a minimum of $3650.00 in Canadian dollars to cover all travel, (air & ground), rehearsal, coaches, Team Canada jackets, hotels and Canadian and International entry starter fees.  This fee does include any solo, extra choreography or costume expenses. Attached is a sample of some her dances this year for your enjoyment.
