    Claret
    Sayawatha

    College Division:
    CADS
    UPD
    FEU
    TIP
    LSDC

    Note:
    Team members of Dance X from way back Skechers 1 have graduated and so we have to see how this batch will fare without JC et al.Since they were given a second chance, I expect that they will ask former team members to help them clean their act.

    If St. Marks does place, I strongly hope that it will give them the confidence which they sorely need.Act as champions which you are….

    Hmm.I expected more from Holy Spirit since they competed in the World Hiphop.Maybe, they will surprise us again in the Finals.

    If Indak nails all their stunts, they will definitely win the Championship hands down.

    The College division is too close to call. All the teams are expected to make final adjustments to their routines. UPD cannot afford a single mishap and all the other teams are hungry for the crown.FEU and Ateneo were able to conquer UPD in the UAAP Cheerdance Competition, why not here too?

    HS division

    champs: Ateneo Indak
    2nd: Claret Hataw
    3rd: St. Marks or School of the Holy Spirit

    ahs can really be the champions! claret surprised me with their extra-ordinary piece during their elimination leg, they can place this year. st. marks, yeah, confidence is what they need, good synchronization though. school of the holy spirit, they might give a strong performance in the final battle, like what they always do. sayawatha, hhm maybe top 3.

    i have a feeling that all boys schools team will perform well this year, and i think 2 all boys team, claret hataw and ateneo indak might be in the top 3, base from their performances in their elimination leg.

    why talents guild? 1st of all we think they haven’t given their best shot YET bec they want to suprise people with their stunts in the finals. we all know TIP Talents Guild is the only crew that does TRICKS COMBINATIONS. Most of the crews can do tricks, that much is clear, but can they be creative enough to come up with the idea of combining them? well that’s what we thought.

    and when it comes with routines we think Talents Guild is clean with the moves and the choreography also somehow stands out. but, we respect everyone’s comments, though. we have different opinions.

    October 26, 2009 at 9:28 pm | #26

    Well, being an avid follower of this competition, here are my top five teams of the High School Division BASED NOT ONLY ON THIS YEAR’S ELIMINATIONS BUT ON PAST DANCE BATTLES AS WELL.

    1. SAYAWATHA (Miriam College) – A lot of people may have already forgotten this but Miriam College’s Sayawatha is the only high school team to be a two-time champion of Skechers. They won during the competition’s first year and they took the crown last year. And while their originality may very well be questioned as Aglaia suggested, it is still a fact that when it comes to BEING A DANCE CREW, they are a formidable team.

    No matter what their theme or style is, it is always a fact that Sayawatha TRIES to dance as a family. They love doing collective stunts and choreography that paint a general picture unlike some teams who would usually give focus to one member only hoping that that person could win the judges over. That’s a good way to do it but there must also be times when the focus or the wow factor comes from the entire team itself because that really shows unity and, if pulled off correctly, synchronization (a very important factor in this competition.)

    During this year’s eliminations however, I think they did well but it could’ve been better. In general, I like the fact that they showcased so many styles. They even had one of their members at the far left of the stage add a little voguing into the mix. But the deliver pales in comparison from last year’s performance when you have girls like Axes Marasigan ripping the center stage. In terms of timing, yes they were on point but in terms of how hard they hit or how well they hit, no so much. You have stray limbs sticking out in awkward looking places, bodies jumping either too high, and a little sign of apprehension from some members among other mishaps. Fortunately, they did make it to the finals. However, they need to polish their routine should they wish to be back to back champs.

    2. DANCE X (Xavier School) – First of all, I would like to extend my congratulations to DX for making it to the finals again. Perhaps that little scare might be all they need to bring their school back to the top where they belong. I say this because as much as I frowned upon the decision of the judges who initially did not include DX for the finals, I can’t help but agree. See, the problem is, there was a botch during Xavier’s performance whereas most of the teams that made it were nearly spotless. I believe it was during the end where the guy in the center wobbled during his freeze.

    Also, the thing about DX is that, sometimes, you just have to question whether or not they really want to win. Being champions during the second year of Skechers, people know that they can do it. And in their past performances since that win, they would always show glints that justify their prestige.

    The only problem that I think this team has is that they sometimes focus more on crowd-pleasing other than nailing majority of the criteria. Sure, as a member of the audience, I appreciate and love them for that but I think they deserve to win and they can if only they go for it.

    In relation to that, last years performance could’ve placed had they done away with the “Burn” section and had the opening stunts been nailed cleanly. The tutting section was amazing, the isolations were good and individually, YOU CAN TELL THAT EVERY MEMBER OF DX IS A GOOD DANCER. They just need to learn how to dance like a team and give focus on that. Honestly, they can win this competition again if only they would take it just a little more seriously.

    3. INDAK (Ateneo de Manila) – The championship has alluded this team one too many times considering the fact that they often take the top spot in the eliminations. Simply put, this is a very strong team–a veritable threat to anyone who seeks the top spot. They just need to pull it together when it really counts. If Ateneo can repeat the same precision, daring and confidence of their elims this year for the finals, they can very well take first place. I just hope their nerves don’t get the best of them because they can really do well. Relax, boys. Breathe.

    4. CAMPUS IMAGE (St. Mark’s) – It is true that St. Mark’s team isn’t the most daring. And yes, there are times when their performances aren’t the most memorable. But when it comes to being clean, nobody does it better in the high school division than St. Marks. They are really good when it comes to painting pictures. They are very precise and during their performances, they come across as very polished. It makes me wonder how much they rehearse. But like what SUSIE and GEORGE said, they need confidence.

    Here is something to think about though: If there is one team that can be clean while taking risks and another team that is clean because they don’t take risk–I would pick the former if I were to judge. Simply put, if all the teams nail their stunts this year and deliver a clean performance, it is possible for St. Marks to not place.

    5. AGLAIA (School of the Holy Spirit) – I’m still not happy about the way they behaved during the eliminations. But putting that aside, Holy Spirit’s dancers have got to be some of the most hard-hitting girls in that competition. That is something that Sayawatha and Terpsichore lack.

    However, like I have said in my previous post: I don’t think I have yet to see anything new from this team. As for the cheerleading stunts – this team has already focused on that before. Not that there is anything wrong with that but the thing is, during the elims, they just spent a great deal of their performance time giving focus on a girl doing stationary handsprings when they could be focusing on more important things: DANCING. And these girls, as I have said, can dance.

    That’s the reason why they lost to Miriam last year. They didn’t lose because, as some would say, “some segments of Miriam’s routine were stolen” but because Miriam focused on being a dance group not stunt-women who decided to add a little choreography to the mix.

    ____

    By the way, I would like to give a shout-out to that male dancer who might’ve gotten injured during the elims. I hope you’re doing well. Thank you for laying it out on the line in the name of this art. I respect you for that even though I’ve forgotten which school you’re from and I don’t know who you are. Thank you so much and I hope you get well soon.

      I’m not sure if the one you’re pertaining about the injured male dancer is our member. But anyhow, if it was him, thanks for your concern. :) He’s fine now and we’re blessed to have him in our team. BTW, I like your comment, so precise and to the point. :D

        Yes! It is was DanSSA. The yellow team, right? That’s great to hear. I was so shocked when they carried him out of the stage. It’s good to know he’s doing fine.

      I like this. It seems like you really watch what these teams do. If I may add though: when St.Marks won first place, they won because their routine was risky and they pulled it off. It wasn’t risky in a sense that they were flying all over the place but rather the transitions were really really tight beat-wise and they really worked for them. Their choreography was also very strong and vibrant.

      I also want to say… Aglaia seems to be of a different kind compared to other ‘all-girl’ schools, ya? They hit as with conviction. They even hit harder than the boys. I think that’s why they placed last year (not because of the blindfolded egg roll or the countless splits.:p)

      But what is it about this ‘behavior’ that you mentioned regarding this team? What did they do during the eliminations? Just curious.

    Honestly, if the teams were anonymous and only called Teams A,B or C, would UPD top the ranking? Do you think that the judges are kinder with their scoring just because it’s UPD? In this survey, how about ranking the teams based on their performances and not because we belong to that school.

    i dont agree with no name. its not about the name, popularity, wealth and power. st. marks for example, this schools is not that popular (sorry but i didnt know about this school after they won the skechers battle 3), its about dancing, the wow factor that they gave to the judges, and a performance worth remembering. in the case of st. marks, this school is not that popluar, powerful or whatver, but they won. st mark, nailed the competition with their clean, synchronized moves and the judges was able to recognized it. xavier is an example of a school that is popular, wealthy i guess because most, or all of them are chinese, but how come they didnt place after their championship title few years ago. UP, yes, they dominated this competition for three years, and they deserved it. its not because they are popular, wealthy, powerful? no, its about the THING that they brought to the table. just like what UP-D always do, and what st. marks did 2 years ago.

    im just carried away. :D we’re talking here bout college division ok, wala kami pakialam sa mga high schools coz they’re not that popular unlike college schools and universities, pero like susie said..Wat if???

  36. george
    October 28, 2009 at 9:43 pm | #41

    its just the same NO NAME. ok let me give you an example of a school that is not that popular, and not wealthy and powerful. TIP, this team was one of the strongest last year, they gave a strong, synchronized dance routine, and all stunts were executed well, they really deserve their place last year (they even deserve to be the champions), so yeah, WEALTH, POPULARITY, POWER are not the basis of who will be the winners are, college man yan o high school. and oh, high school is not that popular? are you sure? hahaha

    exactly! masyado na kasing nagttakeover yung mga kilalang schools from UAAP. parang sila na lang lagi ang bida. It’s time to shine to those schools na low profile pero may ibubuga sa dancing, yeah TIP is an example and they will be our inspiration, pero hangga’t anjan parin yung pwersa ng mga wealthy, popular, and powerful schools, judges are kinder with their scoring sabi nga ni suzie. kung titingnan lang naman talaga ng mabuti, madaming schools ang magagaling kesa sa mga UAAP schools, yun nga lang kulang sa palakpak and appreciation. eh pag tumuntong na ng stage si UP/DLSU/ADMU??? hindi pa sumasayaw dumadagundong na yung crowd. (panalo na agad) hahaha! regarding naman dun sa high schools, kaya nga may “unlike” di ba?. Read carefully george! thanks!

    • Kelsey
      October 29, 2009 at 11:37 am | #43

      That’s a bit unfair, don’t you think? Not that I’m trying to start a fight or anything but it is not the fault of the UAAP Schools if they are considered “popular.” With this kind of thinking, it wouldn’t matter how well they do, there would always be that stigma. That would be a hopeless case.

      I second George’s statement. St.Mark was a virtually unknown school but it won. Also, I’m not hinting anything but let’s talk about last year. La Salle won over TIP. I was there. A lot of people disputed it but here is my point: La Salle was more choreographically dynamic and their executions were better than TIP. Don’t get me wrong. TIP’s dancers can dance for sure. They were also good at nailing their stunts and they really entertained. But in terms of their choreography, the number of styles put in and the execution of the actual dancing, La Salle did better.

      By the way, I’m not from La Salle so don’t think I’m being biased. The thing is, La Salle had more moments showcasing what it really means to be a dance group. They had moments when even the most detailed body movements were synchronized.

      And also, TIP had the BIGGEST crowd support last year. For the lack of a better term, they were last year’s “UP” in terms of crowd support. They drowned the Araneta with their cheering and I FELL IN LOVE WITH THEIR SPIRIT.

      Again, this is by no means an attack. I’m just stating my opinion.

        As a matter of fact, TIP has an approximated crowd of not more than 150 supporters that time, (including families,friends,and classmates). What we’ve observed is that the CHEERING effect came from different schools in college level, especially from high school teams, like ST. MARKS. We’ve seen different people in different corners cheering for TIP school and we’ve also heard drumrolls coming from nowhere. La lang share lang….:)

        October 31, 2009 at 6:51 pm | #45

        i agree on this. TIP had a thundering crowd, their families, friends and schoolmates were not the only people who cheered for them, but the whole crowd of araneta! TIP is not a member of UAAP, they are not that powerful or popular, but people were able to notice and cheer for them, making TIP’s crowd more louder. so yeah, no name’s statement is not true. :)

    October 29, 2009 at 9:12 am | #46

    do you know what you and your team need. CONFIDENCE! like what we’ve said from our previous post for st. marks, they need confidence, and college division has no exemption for this requirement. dont blame the schools from UAAP for always making it, not because they are the major crowd favorites, why? UE din naman is included last year in skekchers and UAAP school din sila, pero ndi sila nag place. its the confidence dude. dont look up too much or dont be intimidated with known schools. if you know you can do it, then bring it! show others that you can. just like what TIP did last year, no hesitations, they just do their thing and tried to impress the judges and the crowd, and they did. if you guys didnt make it, then maybe its not the right time, well at least you tried and did your best and show others that you can, we cant say that school from uaap usually win because they are popular, hell thats not true! ADMU, DLSU, UP, UE,FEU have great teams in streetdancing, they proved that for years. and oh, you cant blame the crowd for supporting and giving a dumadagundong na palakpak for them, they just want to support their team. every finals ganyan sa araneta, walang team ang mahina when it comes to crowd, and whenever you guys did something extraoridnary, kahit hindi nyo crowd bibigyan kau ng palakpak, TIP for example, many people not from this school also cheered for them because of the wow factor that they gave to the audience. why dont you ask for your schoolmates to support you, since thats what you need to booze your confidence.

      I agree.If you’re good, the crowd will give you a rousing applause.Xavier was also a virtual unknown coming into Skechers2.They did not have a lot of supporters then.After their performance, they got a standing ovation from the HS and College crowd.They had and still exhibit the wow factor in their performances which makes them a crowd favorite.It also helps that they’re cute and oozing with confidence.

    I’ve been a fan of Skechers since Skechers 1 and I noticed that the crowd really appreciates a dance piece if it’s good.A lot of people never heard of Xavier School until Skechers 2. Dance X didn’t even have supporters from their school. However, after their performance, everyone screamed, applauded etc. and thereafter, Dance X became a household name. I was also disappointed with Ateneo’s CADS pieces in 1 and 2 but every year, they keep getting better. That’s what Skechers has done. It has raised the level of Streetdancing. It is no longer just UPD up there but it has become a free for all and the crowd shows their appreciation by applauding good performances from whichever school. It’s just really sad when the crowd goes against you as in the case of St. Mark’s in Skechers 3.The crowd could not understand why Dance X did not place and why St.Marks won. Almost everyone had to view the videos to remember St. Marks piece and to watch over and over again the reaction of Mo Twister when he announced the winner. From the posts, it seems that St. Marks hasn’t gotten over the stigma of that win.It is said that one judge gave Dance X a really low score.Anyway, because of their wins, people now know about Xavier School,St. Marks and TIP. Good luck everyone. Do your best and we will all be there to applaud you.

    i agree with Susie. The judges should have been more educated and more objective in judgin. I know you can all agree with me but the real essence of streetdance is missing already. DINADAAN NA LANG SA BLOWUPS but the TECHNICALITIES? wala na. This is because the judges really have a very LIMITED knowledge on the what’s and how’s of real HIPHOP DANCE. Like FEU, it is said in the rules that *ANY JAZZ OR THEATRICAL ROUTINES WILL BE DISREGARDED IN JUDGING*. But what happened, wawtch the vid and be the judge. Like WORLD HIPHOP, not so famous judges are in the panel but they are really the famous ones from the underground that really knows the basics to the latests of HIPHOP. There are so many teams like BEDAN DANCE TROUPE and UPM INDAYOG that deserve the spot more than the ones who did. For e.g. do the judges know that Beda’s piece is one of the most latest and technical style when it comes to laidback/la style? or do they really know that UP Manila’s style, taking it from the roots of Hiphop is the one called as NY Style used by most underground performers in the Battle Cities like Ny, LA, NJ and Houston. It is also the style taught by Luther Brown ( a World Hipho Judge ). I think the judges should be re shuffled. I remember this one time when Meynard of Streetboys was asked to do Lockings. haha What he did? He just LITERALLY Locked is shoulders and arms in short PUMITIK PITIK LANG but in fact Locking (campbell locking) is really a different move which originated from UPM INDAYOG, DLSU and the BBOY CREWS before. KAWAWA YUNG MGA TECHNICAL DANCERS, NILALAMON YUNG COMPETITION NG COMMERCIAL Hiphop and FAMOUS DANCE ICONS WHO REALLY HAS NO IDEA OF WHAT THEY ARE DOING.

      I feel for you. The thing is, I know that these schools you mentioned could have easily kept it safe by performing routines decked with commercial hiphop. But instead, they chose the more difficult path of sticking to the directives and maintaining the essence of street style. That really is quite honorable. Unfortunately, the judges didn’t appreciate what they did. Perhaps you are right in saying that they actually know little about the style.

      How I wish though that at least one of the judges would respond to these comments so that we can get both sides. But that’s just wishful thinking on my part.

        JET OF FEU: Oh come on. You can’t be THAT dense. It’s funny that even after you repeated what Ms.Beanie said, you still FAILED to comprehend it.

        FINE. Let me simplify it for you…

        “Before, you used to bite costumes from UPD,” – This means that she thinks you USED TO BITE from UPD.

        “…waacking from UPM,” – This means that she thinks you USED TO BITE from UPM.

        “…Jun Quemado’s choreo Locking from Lasalle.” – given that this is part of the previous statement, she also thinks that you USED TO BITE from these people as well.

        “and “NOW”, you are not doing the real thing?” – This means that she thinks your choreography “NOW” does not seem to fall within her standards of street dancing.

        Do you get it now? Perhaps it is you “JET of FEU” who should learn not just to read but also to COMPREHEND before you give me an offhand lecture. ;)

        __

        And by the way, I am not siding with Ms.Beanie. I’m saying this because it seems possible for you to interpret that. After all, the LOGIC of such a simple statement did escape you. ;)

    We really need to do something about this, I am not a dancer and I am not part of the BIG SCHOOLS that usually compete but I am a scholar of London School for the Arts before major in Hiphop and contemporary street style and I know how messed up and how disrespected hiphop style is here in the Philippines.Sorry if im putting you as an example FEU but really, wala kayo karapatan. You just tried to get the audience’s attention by doing a contemporary piece. Before, you used to bite costumes from UPD, waacking from UPM, Jun Quemado’s choreo Locking from Lasalle and now, you are not doing the real thing? When can you improve your discipline and your originality? Ang lalakas niyo pa naman. Sayang.TIP is also great but sayang andami niyo binite. I have nothing to say more, sayang lang yung mga bite and I know you can still come up with the same routine or better just eliminate the copied routines and focus more on technicalities not on tumblings.I really hope makarating to sa brainbox and they should come up with a better way of lining-up judges that are really deserving to be called judges for a STREETDANCE BATTLE. Peace yall

    • fabiluz
      November 4, 2009 at 9:42 pm | #72

      ms.beanie..i beg to disagree. it is by the judges’ conviction that FEU and the rest of the finalists were in that position. and to make it fair, WALANG KAHIT ANO NA BITE sa routine ng FEU. you might want to talk to the “original” choreographer of their routine. they worked hard for it. maybe you should watch the videos again (and again). Give some respect. Being a student of arts in London, it doesnt follow that your judgements be all correct , what you are saying is OPINION based. (that being NOT a FACT).. maybe next time try to be more careful of what you say and how you deliver it. Make sure na TAMA lahat ng sinasabi mo before you say it or else madami magagalit sayo. hindi mo ba napansin na ikaw lang ang bukod tanging nagsabi na nag-bite and feu. kung bitter ka sa mga nanalo / nakuha sa finals then try to question the judges against THEIR JUDGEMENT. ask them why and how these schools won, and maybe get a better view of the story.

      ..i am not an feu member but i respect what they showed on the elims. same goes with the other finalists. i have friends from feu and i saw how they worked for it kaya nagreact ako sa post mo. unfair yun sa side nila that they are being misjudged.

      much respect

        November 4, 2009 at 10:02 pm | #73

        Fabiluz, are you defending the past routines or this year’s routine? Because if you’re defending the past routines I’d rather not speak on it since I wasn’t able to see them. But if you are referring to this year’s routine, I would just like to point out that Ms. Beanie wasn’t complaining about any biting this year from FEU but rather the fact that they put in elements that do not fall within the genre of street dancing.

        Sorry, I just had to bring that up because for some reason, most of the people who react on the posts of this site don’t seem to read comments properly. I would hate to think that street dancers and their followers are all brawn and no brains. ;)

      • fabiluz
        November 4, 2009 at 10:37 pm | #74

        that goes for all their routines, the past and the recent. BLACKHEART : exactly, magbasa ka ng post, “jet” already said na walang contemp ang routine nila. hindi ko na kailangan i-elaborate yun, mas concern lang ako sa “bite” part. :p

      • george
        November 4, 2009 at 11:14 pm | #75

        biting is not the issue here fabiluz, blackheart is right, read again and you’ll understand. beanie’s opinion regarding FEU is not about the biting issue, but its about the STREETDANCING and HIPHOP genre in which i believe FEU failed to have in their routine. although, i understand your part fabiluz since the way ms beaanie expressed her opinion about FEU is not that good. i was also surpised to read something like “FEU, wala kayong karapatan” :)

      • blackheart
        November 4, 2009 at 11:15 pm | #76

        Well, I’m glad you cleared that up. Your answer is a bit odd though since you repeatedly wrote “routine” not “routines.”

        As for the statement you left about me reading posts, you clearly misunderstood what I meant by my comment. The thing is, people read posts in this site, it’s just that they don’t read them carefully. Example: this scenario.

        Oh, and here’s one more thing: you left a comment to Ms.Beanie saying “being a student of arts in London, it doesnt follow that your judgements be all correct.” Following that logic, I guess one can say that just because “jet” is part of FEU and he said that there are no contemporary elements in their routine, it doesn’t necessarily follow that he’s right, right? There may have been contemporary elements there that he is not aware of albeit being a student of FEU or being trained by somewhat knowledgeable people, right?

        Hmm… ;)

        JET OF FEU: Oh dear. Seriously. If I were, I would just stop responding to avoid further embarrassment. If you cared to read Ms.Beanie’s statement careful, this is what she said:

        “Sayang. TIP is also great but sayang andami niyo binite. I have nothing to say more, sayang lang yung mga bite and I know you can still come up with the same routine or better just eliminate the copied routines and focus more on technicalities not on tumblings.”

        Now JET OF FEU, if you would notice, this was the statement given by Ms.Beanie. It included portion of the quote you cited as well as the statement before it. If you would read this statement carefully, IT IS CLEAR THAT THE ROUTINE SHE IS CRITICIZING FOR HAVING STOLEN SEGMENTS WAS THAT OF TIP AND NOT FEU.

        And you dare have the “balls” to tell me I can’t understand? LOL. Again, JET OF FEU, learn how to READ and COMPREHEND so that you wouldn’t embarrass the good name of your school. ;)

    i agree with chinkyboy and :) , base from hs elimination leg, all boys team dance x, airforce, hataw and indak really did a great job! and yeah, i’m gona stick to what ive said from my previous post that two boys team will place in the finals, ateneo and claret, although xavier might bring something new and focus more on winning rather than having fun and entertaining the audience. one spot in the top 3 might belong to the very powerful all girls team aglaia or to st. marks or to the defending champs sayawatha in which i’m expecting something new and original moves since a lot of people are now aware of the “biting” issue.

      November 5, 2009 at 2:01 am | #92

      Actually, I think Xavier’s routine is OK. The only problem is the execution. As I’ve mentioned in previous posts, the ending of their routine was rather sloppy. The guy in the middle didn’t nail his freeze properly, I believe. Plus, there were moments when the overall picture was a bit distorted.

      But you know what? Like you, I believe in this team. As I’ve said before, individually, Xavier’s dancers are very good. They just need to focus more on dancing as a group. I think their performance in Skecher’s 2 bagged them the trophy because they were extremely clean and they really focused on showcasing unity in most segments. The routines that followed after were different stories however. There were parts that were extremely good but there were also parts that they could’ve done away with like the “Burn” segment last year that, I think, did nothing for their synchronization.

      Anyway, I hope that that little scare during the eliminations gets them to work harder this time around. They have SO MUCH POTENTIAL. :)

    First of all we have nothing against any school or people or person in particular… We just want to compete and prove ourselves… Is hip hop all about what the people do in the west??? Yes, I think that its true that we are all (Hip Hop Groups in the Phil) getting ideas and new styles from the us… But as Filipinos we are trying to develop or somehow integrate what we got… FEU Dance Company is group of versatile dancers that undergo training in different dance forms to be better dancers. The motif of FEU in this year’s Skechers Battle is to add an “ethnic” flavor to the routine. WE DID NOT COPY ANY CHOREOGRAPHY FROM ANY GROUP OR WORK OF A CERTAIN CHOREOGRAPHER!!! I think your better watch again those who performed in the elims to see who are those “BITTER” I mean “BITER” as you said… BESIDES HOW SURE ARE YOU THAT OTHER TEAMS DID NOT BITE FROM FOREIGN GROUPS??! It does not mean that if you are the first to introduce that style you are the only one that can use it.. What we are trying to do is to use this style and come up with our own steps and choreography which carefully planned. We have respect and dignity as dancers… You may not know but some University dance group has been copying our routines for the past 3 years… and that is really insulting… So please just give some respect, like what every body else did on the elims… where almost all of the people cheered and showed appreciation our work… We are very thankful that we have come this far… We will do our best and work harder to give a good show to all the supporters of FDC! Win or Lose we will keep on dancing… Have faith in God and keep ourselves humble always… As we always do… Because in all things, God must be GLORIFIED!!! (Ganun talaga kami we offer all our work to God, the school, family and our supporters.) Which keeps us bonded. We know we have so many things to learn and this is just the beginning… See you on Nov.21…

    P.S.

    hindi kami mayayaman or whatever… mga scholar din kami… kung alam nyo lang ang hirap na ginagawa namin….

    One more thing… about the “Hip-Hop and Street Dance” matter that you think we are lacking… WHAT IS Hip-Hop for you?? Hip-Hop is all about showing what you got… It’s all about presenting yourself… About the rules of the competition, hindi naman pinagbabawal mag add ng style or steps regarding other dance forms… wala naman deduction or additional sa points… Its the choice of the group kung maglalagay sila… What we did (FEU Dance Co.) is just to add flavor to the whole routine according to the “CONCEPT”

We have so much respect to them kasi nagpakita sila ng kung anu meron sila… Kahit san namang competition hinahanap ang creativity, uniqueness and originality ito ang mga pinagtutuunan namin ng pansin sa ngaun, pinag-isipan ng mabuti at pinag hirapan isagawa… I’m sure sa Finals maraming pag babago and special na ilalabas ang mga groups so better reserve tickets now and watch it live at ARANETA… see yah!!

    i agree with what mark said. FEU has been through a lot. all their efforts and sacrifices just paid off. Ganun din sa mga schools na nakapasok sa finals. marami ng nasalihan na competitions ang FEU, manalo man o matalo, wala kayong naririnig sa kanila dahil may respeto sila sa kapwa nila mananayaw. They know how to accept all the criticisms and opinions that you will give em and learn from it. kaya lang naman sila nagreact ng ganyan kasi mali yung nasabi sa kanila. kaya kung mag cricriticize naman, paki sigurado na tama lahat ng sinasabi para matanggap nila ito ng mapayapa at tahimik.:)

    DI AKO BIASED, I JUST FEEL FOR THEM

    Let the judges do their jobs and see who will win. I know they were briefed about the criteria for judging and that is the reason why i trust their decisions. :)

    May the best school win and GOODLUCK sa lahat! :)

    Let us all dance to glorify GOD’s name!

    I suggest that the next time we notice biting from a team, the coaches should lodge a written complaint with Brainbox/Skechers.The judges decision will always hold so long as no complaints are received.Once a complaint is received, which should be no more than one week, Brainbox/Skechers should hire separate and different panelists not from the original judges to look at the validity of the complaint.If valid, the award should be negated and given to the next best team.Yakyak lang tayo ng yakyak kaya walang nangyayari.

    I think that Skechers will always look at the issue on hand as long as it receives a written complaint, i.e. Neptali case.

    Some judges are also not aware of biting incidents because streetdance is not their forte.So, it is really up to us to point it out to them.In cases where the judges notice biting incidents, it should be noted on the scorecards so that it could be deliberated upon by all the judges.It could be considered biting by one but only used as an inspiration by another.

    Ms Beanie, you say you were a scholar of London School for the arts but you have kept your mind so close that you fail to judge a work of art. Hip hop is rhythmic movements an expression of one’s thoughts feelings and culture.We are Filipinos so we express in an Asian way. So what is wrong with that?! Actually, hip hop of FEU was expressed with a Filipino touch and if you are a true Filipino you would have been glad at last hip hop being an American dance could be expressed by a Filipino not loosing his IDENTITY and by also picking out other moves that can express dance. Besides according to you you are NOT A DANCER so how CREDIBLE ARE YOU?! You should watch and learn to respect art expressions and remove your biases and prejudices.Dance is a free expression , it has no boundaries. It is part of a man’s spirit. You cannot say it should have been this way or that way! been there done that!

    Ms. Bennie you mentioned from ur previous posts that you are not a dancer but u are studying in London major in HipHop? ryt? If you think the judges who paneled the skechers are not that reliable for the decisions who should win, then might as well find those judges that you think can judge better. Or you can be a judge as well… But i don’t think so, why? because the way you defined HipHop and streetstyle is so broad and by the book. If you’re growing up along with the generation, you will notice that styles in HipHop are being more dynamic in terms of execution and form. I agree with you when you said HipHop originated from the west but are you aware that you are talking about HipHop in the Philippines? And just so you know, Jazz and ballet are one of those genre where all of these dance forms also originated. Just to remind you that ballet is the basic foundation of dancing. All of the movements that are used in HipHop or streetstyle comes from every terms and forms in ballet.

    Another thing, what would you call the Jazzy hiphop that Britney Spears and Janet Jackson introduced to us? If you can analyze the dances that they have performed you will see some jazz movements and some of the basic movements of ballet. Isn’t that how HipHop have evolved? That is why FEU’s routine in the Skechers 5 elimination really caught my attention because I have been dancing for 3 years and combination of some of the “HIPHOP GENRE” are present in that routine.

    Professionally speaking with regards to the biting part of ur posts, I have danced with FEU in skechers 3 and 4 and damn! We haven’t done any of those things regarding biting of costumes and choreography… Hell no! Just to clarify, coming up with the costumes always comes along with the concept and why would we just bite from any other schools when our own routines and costumes are the ones being copied.

    Matalino ka, and all of the things you say may be right but seeing the real thing is better than judging it with limited resources. it’s just not being so professional from a student from “LONDON”.

    FEU did a great job this past elimination and i think their choreographer is the one you should be talking to because as far as i know dancers has their own style and maybe FEU’s style is not ur style at all. Ooops! DO you have a style? because as i can remember you certainly mentioned that you are not a dancer. Maybe you should better know how to execute the things that you have stated. Kc aanhin mu nman yang alam mo which is by the book when you don’t know how to do just an 8-counts choreography right

      I think that all Ms. Beanie is trying to point out is that under the rules of Skechers, ballet and jazz does not get any points so why include it in your repertoire? I know that FEU has the potential and included you in my top 5 picks but if you insist on including the jazz/ballet genre, it would be an uphill battle.

    haha. what’s the big deal with FEU dance company competing for the grandfinals? people know they deserve to be there. ikaw lang nmn ang nagd’drama ng bitter-bitteran eh. eh you don’t belong dn nmn in neither any schools participating in skechers dance battle. what do you wanna come up with ba? you are so not cool. and i mean SO NOT COOL!

      JET OF FEU: Oh dear. Seriously. If I were, I would just stop responding to avoid further embarrassment. If you cared to read Ms.Beanie’s statement careful, this is what she said:

      “Sayang. TIP is also great but sayang andami niyo binite. I have nothing to say more, sayang lang yung mga bite and I know you can still come up with the same routine or better just eliminate the copied routines and focus more on technicalities not on tumblings.”

      Now JET OF FEU, if you would notice, this was the statement given by Ms.Beanie. It included portion of the quote you cited as well as the statement before it. If you would read this statement carefully, IT IS CLEAR THAT THE ROUTINE SHE IS CRITICIZING FOR HAVING STOLEN SEGMENTS WAS THAT OF TIP AND NOT FEU.

      And you dare have the “balls” to tell me I can’t understand? LOL. Again, JET OF FEU, learn how to READ and COMPREHEND so that you wouldn’t embarrass the good name of your school. ;)

    exactly suzie, ballet and jazz does not get any points in the skechers rules… but how and why does FEU still manage to make it as the first place in the eliminations? it only shows that eventhough they have this ballet and jazz movements and ethnic flavor on their routine, it is still the streetstyle and hiphop choreography that was highlighted. again, suzie and ms. beanie, FEU just added a flavor to their routine to showcase that Philippine HipHop can be more dynamic. and of course to also establish that FEU Dance Company does not just dance ONE genre.

    and one more thing, why some of you are so bitter that FEU was able to get into the Finals? and if you are not one of the competing schools what is with you to say these kinds of things to FEU? Natatalo din nman kami before but have you heard something like these from us? We don’t feel bitter much as you do because we know that competition is like a wheel, you can be at the bottom and you can be on the top, and FEU is just making its way up to the top now. Ngayon kung hindi nio un tanggap we’re sorry but we cannot please everybody. At hindi na kasalanan ng FEU un kung nakapasok man sila sa FINALS, because they worked hard for this chance.

      November 6, 2009 at 6:01 pm | #129

      James, I don’t think that anyone is bitter that FEU got into the Finals.Like me, they’re just shocked that you have the guts to incorporate jazz/ballet which does not give you extra points.You also had the luck of the draw.The results would have been different if you were grouped with the 1st leg.Anyway,if you feel very strongly about the jazz/ballet genre for the finals then go for it.But, if you do place, you know that a lot of the teams will lodge a complaint.Is it worth it?

      • James FEU alumni
        November 6, 2009 at 7:35 pm | #130

        But the thing here is that we are not grouped with the first leg and we placed 1st during the elimination leg where we belong to. Simple as that.

        Jazz and ballet is not really that incorporated with FEU’s routine during the elimination, maybe there are some, but what we are pointing out here is the statement of Ms. Beannie whereas she is stating that we are not doing the real thing during the elimination, and she clearly mentioned about FEU’s routine as a contemporary style. Which is not. At kaya nmen un patunayan. Un lang nman eh, and the biting part as well.

        The reason we are reacting here is that you might want to research more before you accused us of being biters and having a contemp style in which I know contemporary for a fact and it is not done like that.

        Cge nga, tell me, why does Ms. Beannie say things like that to FEU? Anong motibo?

        And another thing, kahit nman iincorporate pa ng FEU ang jazz and ballet sa routine at nagplace cla given the fact that jazz and ballet does not ADD extra points, and does not deduct as well. So, khit may jazz and ballet pa dun, kung hindi nman mkakadagdag o mkakabawas sa overall points, then why would these schools lodge a complaint?

        FEU is just doing their best to win this competition and if you guys does not want us to win. It’s not our fault anymore.

    “We really need to do something about this, I am not a dancer and I am not part of the BIG SCHOOLS that usually compete but I am a scholar of London School for the Arts before major in Hiphop and contemporary street style and I know how messed up and how disrespected hiphop style is here in the Philippines.Sorry if im putting you as an example FEU but really, wala kayo karapatan. You just tried to get the audience’s attention by doing a contemporary piece. Before, you used to bite costumes from UPD, waacking from UPM, Jun Quemado’s choreo Locking from Lasalle and now, you are not doing the real thing? When can you improve your discipline and your originality? Ang lalakas niyo pa naman.”

    and for you blackheart and crying light, of course we do understand every word being said here, that is why we are reacting, for you to get a clear thought why FEU is reacting just read this statement. Sana keo ang mas mkaintindi…

      And here comes another one. Look JAMES FEU alumni… If you would care to read my statement as well as that of The Crying Light’s, then you would know that we never said that every single member of FEU did not understand this statement. I will even quote from The Crying Light:

      “It was so clearly stated but SOME of them still can’t understand it.” – This means that a number of you, NOT ALL, do not understand what is being said.

      And if you would like to contest that, read the exchange between me and JET OF FEU as well as the one between me and FABILUZ. ;)

Did I ever state that FEU’s piece involved contemporary elements? NO. I am not part of that particular argument. Can’t you tell? LOL. ;)

        What I merely did was ask Fabiluz whether or not he or she understood what MS.BEANIE was pointing out and apparently, s/he did not. Then came JET OF FEU who clearly misread the comments but insisted that I’m the one who did not understand them.

        I merely pointed out the obvious lack of understanding displayed by these two people.

    w0w! naging FEU vs. haters ang nangyari d2. db ang nakalagay lng naman is “post your top 5 school”, right? hind post your top 5, defend your answer and chew the routine/style of the other school. bakit ganun? ang dami ng nagsabi na this school should’ve made the finals because of this, this group shouldnt have because of that. eh d nxt time subukan nyung i-suggest s skechers n magpalit ng judge or better yet–if your so good–kau nalang magjudge!=D

    i wonder. . . pag my nakikitang iba ang tao, natatakot xa. if he see’s something new, its hard for him to accept it. cguro kung nkpxok man ang FEU–or other schools that “haters” dont like–is bcoz it is sumthin new, it is sumthin different, it is sumthin fresh. maybe the reason why other schools–whom you think shoudlve made it to thr finals–didnt made it to the finals is because their style is. . .”paulit-ulit”, redundant, boring!

    hiphop shouldt be stagnant. wla nman streetdance(hiphop) dati db? nagung 21st century lang na-develop ang hiphop, so kung ma-incorporate man ng schools ang hiphop with other–old–dance forte then its a breakthrough! db? why are you so threatened? and IF you’re not, then why the hell comments such as “wala kaung karapatan” is coming out? if other school want to gamble with their “contemporary” routine wla na kaung pakialam dun. yung nagsabi ng “wla kaung karapatan” WALA KA DING KARAPATAN. youve gone way over board. why dont you turn of your computer, get out of the house and get a life!=D
    and if you think the schools who’ve made it to the finals violated rules, post it. kung sa tingin nyu dinaan sa crowd. . . wow! pde kausapin ng group lahat ng audience s buong sky dome eh! kung sa tingin nyu dinaan sa blowups, e d sana sumali k s competition na wlang points ung stunt. kung stingin nyu nanggaya ng costume, post nyu ung pic. ng costume ng crew n gnaya. kung s tingin nyu my nbite,post nyu ung link ng video–if there is any–or ung name ng crew na binite nila. kung my contemporary man, what part? what minute was that? show your damn prrof! hindi ung puro kau comment ng negative s school wla nmn kaung ebidenxa.

    i’m not a fan of any school but its just really annoying to read unjustified negative comments from “know it all” people who doesn’t even know how to dance. (ako na nga lang nk2basa ako p galit)LOL

    For whatever reason, blackheart ang crying light, lumayo na keo kung san kame tlaga nagreact. O eto, kahit sbihin pa ni Ms. Beannie na ung past routines namen ang stolen from other school, magrereact parin kame na hindi. Khit pa sbihin nio na ang sinabi ni Ms. Beannie na “WE USED TO” eh ang sasabihin pa rin nmen ay “HINDI” whereas hindi nman tlaga. o ayan na. tgalog na yan teh…

      November 9, 2009 at 9:48 am | #177

      LOL. Here we go again. ;) First of all, WHITEHEART, I never accused FEU of biting or using contemporary elements in their piece. I NEVER contested their right to be in Skechers. And as I’ve told a number of FEU’s ever-so-proud yet ever-so-brash supporters in this thread, YOU WOULD KNOW THAT IF YOU WOULD JUST LEARN HOW TO READ AND COMPREHEND. Is it really that hard to understand? LOL. In your case I guess it is. ;)

      I merely stated that some of you don’t go through the comments properly. I’m not challenging your skills as dancers, WHITEHEART. IF I am challenging anything, it is perhaps your INTELLECT and I am doing so with my inference. And FYI, YOU, like a number of people who reacted to my statements, have proven me RIGHT yet again. ;) Lol.

      BLACKHEART, WE SHOULD TRY TALKING TO THESE PEOPLE IN TAGALOG. Maybe then, they’ll understand or at least get a better idea of where we are coming from.

      Ok. Let me try… (clears throat)

HINDI RIN NAMIN SINABI NA GUMAMIT KAYO NG BALLET AT CONTEMPORARY NA MODA PARA SA INYONG NAKARAANG SAYAW. ANG SINABI LANG NAMIN AY ANG IBA SA INYO HINDI MARUNONG MAGBASA AT UMINTINDI NG PAHAYAG NG IBA. PINATUNAYAN ITO NI BLACKHEART NUNG TINANONG NIYA ANG ILAN SA INYO KUNG ANO TALAGA ANG PAKSA NG SINABI NI MS.BEANIE AT MAYROONG EBIDENSYA NG… um… KATANGAHAN SA SAGOT NG ILAN. NUNG TINALAKAY NAMAN ITO NI BLACKHEART, ANG ILAN SA INYO AY NAPIKON. BAKIT? DAHIL BA TAMA SIYA? ANG ILAN SA INYO HINDI MARUNONG MAGBASA NG MAAYOS AT UMINTINDI KAHIT NASA KOLEHIYO NA? Hahahahahaha.

      neither. magaling ang st. paul but unless they do something explosive this year thatll leave a mark on stage, i dont think champion material na sila. as for sayawatha, well, sana bumalik na ang creative juices ni ryan silva (please spare us the buddha hands.)

      ateneo indak(period)(ellipses). haha

      • The Crying Light
        November 11, 2009 at 1:13 pm | #212

        I agree but my problem with them lies on a different scale. Terpsichore is good and I respect them for what they do but I’ve noticed that they don’t dance very hard. There is always a hint of daintiness even in moves that require them to really bring it. As for Sayawatha, their routine this year is “ok” and I still believe they can win but the execution still needs a lot to be desired. Their formations are not very clean and their lines are not very solid. That, I think, was the same pitfall that cost them the title back in Skechers 3.

        Should Indak dance the same way they danced during the eliminations, they may very well take the championship.

      • mofo
        November 12, 2009 at 2:18 pm | #213

        i have been a fan of dance x since their win pero now im rooting for indak. theyre good, they both are. they have the same spunk, hard hits and all. claret is one school to anticipate din. sayang talaga last year, if it werent for the stunts na nagfail or nagpadumi, boys couldve dominated it. yung girls kasi theyre waaaaay too simple, walang x factor. bulag lang talaga sa mismong performance pero wala halos laman.

  108. chepard
    November 11, 2009 at 2:10 pm | #214

    the hell? where exactly is the “contemp” piece sa routine ng feu? kindly explain. if you’re really a student from LONDON as you said and you know all about hiphop, you can clearly explain! pero bakit parang wala? if you dont want people say that you guys are “BITTER” stop criticizing as if npakagaling nyo na. wala bang karapatan ang mga tao na mgopen ng bagong ideas? yes its hiphop? but darn it. its evolving tremendously! bakit? wala naman krumping dati ah. bago lang din yan and dancers quickly adopted to this kind of style! hindi ako katulad nyo na maraming alam sa dance! but i am a DANCER! i have alot of learning to do pa! unlike YOU my dear. in relation to the “biting” issue. wtf? do you actually know what you’re talking about? cant help but to LAUGH sa mga comments mo.and if you’re wondering! YES! i am strongly in the side of FEU! these guys gave all they have. they started from the buttom and look where they are now. you my dears are probably “INGGIT” sa success na meron ang feu ngayon! nagulat kayo na biglang angat ang grupo na to. lemme tell you kung anong meron sila na wala kayo! PUSO! at matinding paniniwala sa TAAS! they believed in GOD so in return the LORD believed in them. the faith they have in their hearts are so pure na biniyayaan sila ng lubos! they danced FOR HIM! not for the fame and glory! pinakita nila kung anung meron sila, pinakita nila ung blessing na binigay sakanila ni LORD!

    and yes member ako ng FEU dance company! and i am saying this not because member nga ako. i’m saying this kasi i know what’s right. if you think hindi marunong ung judges! you be the judge then. pumunta ka ngayon din sa brainbox! magwelga ka dun. hire yourself as one of the judges. if that is possible! LOL! i have nothing more to say to you my dears, i clearly sayed my opinions “OPINIONS” paki intindi! pede? …….. go make comments all you want! THANK YOU!

    LABAN FDC! dont stop dancing for HIM! maging strength nyo xa kahit anung mngyare! we believe on what you can do.. dont mind the insects buzzing around you. test lang yan! keep you feets on the ground… LOVE YOU GUYS!

    Are the teams allowed to change their choreography for the FINALS?

    • The Crying Light
      November 11, 2009 at 10:05 pm | #216

      Of course. However, I’m not sure up to what extent the changes can be made. Sayawatha did that last year. There were segments of their routine during the finals that greatly differed from their routine during the eliminations. Aglaia also did that by adding another segment to their performance. However, I don’t think it’s advisable to do a massive make-over since there is only a small amount of time between the elims and the finals. Changing the routine greatly may cause the execution to suffer. :)

Sorry Jet ah? haha Here’s the thing I did not say you bite steps, the style and routine ang ginagaya niyo. Victorian outfit ng diliman, bigla niyo ginaya. Before wala kayong waacking and locking pero san niyo nakuha? You know what it is nonsense talking to you because of your narrow way of thinking, kaya pala ang tagal mo na nagcocompete for Feu. :) Oh well, I commend the people who have broader perspectives of the issue. Alam na natin kung sino naman ang npapahiya e. Jet KAWAWA KA NAMAN NILAGAY MO PA PANAGALAN MO. Poor you. JET ikaw yung long hair na may kalakihan ilong diba? tsktsk

    dapat nga friendly compet to. yun nga lang may mga tao tlgang bastos at walang kayang gawin kung hindi magsalita ng masama sa kapwa. sana nga pumasok nlng INDAYOG ng walang ganito!

    this is true… i started giving opinion to gain consensus on what we should do inside our hiphop community, we can give out our pieces of advice too and defend your schools but be sure you have the right arguments based on real facts not on emotions. :)
    and by the way the MS BEANIE COMMENT LAST NOV 13:

      Ms. beanie.. kamusta ka? personalan? hehe ocge. dati po akong taga UP. senxa na kung matagal ako bago makatapos. pati ba naman un sinabi mo pa.. haha sory ulit. madami pa din sa UP na ganun.. may mga 10yrs na nga nagaaral andun pa din e.. :) PEP po ako dun dati.. uso kasi un dun. na adapt ko lang.

      waacking and locking? ms.beanie wala kaming locking part ngaun. tska matagal na kaming nag lolockings kht nung mga past na routines namin. parang lahat naman ng schools may alam nun.. nung 3 may wack ang FEU pero wala ako dun.. panuodin mo ulit. wack namin ngaun mga 4counts lang ata. wala din naman ata kaming sobrang wack sa routine namin. cguro 4counts lang tas puro fuzion na ung style. walang ibang pinagkuhaan kung hindi ung nagturo. ung sa costume naman ms.beanie dis yr ba ung sinasabi mo na Victorian costume ng UP na ginaya ng FEU? kc parang tribal ata ung ngaun. nakuha namin ung wacking kay JOE ABUDA and ung locking po namin from SACHI ng Funkstyle.. hnd namin ginaya sa UP.
      kung sa tingin mo tlgang tama lahat ng mga sinasabi mo cge ok wala na kaming ssbhn. opinion mo yan. godbless you MS.beanie see you in araneta.. :) )

      pano ka pala namin icoconfront e hnd nga namin alam kung anong school mo anong name mo. kasi madaming gustong kumausap sayo e. hnd lang mga taga FEU. kasi sobrang lawak daw ng kaalaman mo sa streetdance. patulong daw.. :)

    2 clarrete
    3 admu
    sa high school
    look guys di ba kayo nagtataka?
    maytinatago ung smi
    nung freestyle battle meron silang mga stunts na dalawa.nung nakatapat nila ang mirriam
    galing nga ng combo nila dun parang pinaghandaan talaga
    galing
    clarete malakas na school din dami stunts kaso di masyado perfected eh……ateneo naman puno ng confidence
    pero guys may confidence ang smi dahil di sila gumamit ng stunts kahit meron silang kaya…….parang nung year 3 din walang stunts

      I wouldn’t really call that confidence. In fact, I’d go as far as saying that it was a safe move to not incorporate stunts in order to ensure a clean routine. But that’s the thing with St.Marks; what they lack in terms of “bravado,” they make up for in terms of synchronization. But as I’ve mentioned in recent posts, if you have two clean teams with one inserting a wow factor and the other playing it safe, I’d go for the team that took some chances. But then again, to each his own.

    the long wait is finally over! one more day before day before the final battle! here’s my final say for the HS finalists

    ATENEO – indak: i’m sure ateneo will do eveything in order for them to place on top in this final battle. i believe that they can. if these boys will continure to have their confidence, their strong powerful moves and if they did their stunts, there’s no way that ateneo will place first this year. what is good about this team is, these boys are huge, but they still manage to move as one, they also can maintain their high energy from the moment they start until the end of their piece. ateneo indak is truly the number 1 to beat in the hs division.

    CAA: hhm what can i say, i really dont remember anything from this team, maybe because this is theoir first time to join. but i believe that this team also has whatt it takes. they really deserve to be in the finals.

    CSA: honestly, i was entertain by their performance. its good to see something different on stage, since for me, from what i saw, most of the members of this team are cheerleaders? correct me if im wrong. the reason why i said this is because of their routine, its not actually streetdance or hiphop, the dance moves were soft, jazz like dance moves., and they are all flexible, expecially the guys. lol

    CLARET hataw: i think claret learned from their last year’s final battle perforamnce, i remember claret’s performance last year was a total mess! the reason for this was they include so many stunts in their piece, and unfortunately, these stunts were not executed well. from their elimination leg, i was surprise that claret didnt have so many stunts. yes they included some but they manage to execute them well. what i like about claret is their strong and powerful dance moves. and even if their moves are fast, they still manage to dancee as one.

    LASALLE airfoce: airforce really imporve from last year. last year, lasalle did a great job, the only problem that they had was their costume! their moves cannot be seen because of their costume. also, they were not that synchronized. from this year, airforce really did a great job. their dance moves were more polish than last year.

    MIRIAM sayawatha: yes, the biting issue, but who caes? sayawatha relly look good on stage last year. their stage presence ws so strong, clen synchronized moves made them the champions. this year, hoenstly, i dont think miriam will be able to make it on top again. from what i saw from the eliminations, yes they are good, but something is missing from this team, the syncrhonization, the reason why they place 1st last year was not present in sayawatha’s performance. maybe im just expecting too much. i dont really know, they might improve, like what they did last year, their elimination round was just so so, and their final round was the bomb! mwe should watch for miriam in this coming finals.

    ST. MARK’s campus image: i still cant remember antying about their winning performance. hhm yeah, people were right about st mark’s they need to be more confident. they need to imporve more since they are stucked to one style, we want to see more st marks, do something extra orindary, something that the audience will remember, something that is not safe.

    ST. PAUL terpsichore: girly moves. i like the first part of their performance from last year’s final battle. this year, terpsichore also improve, creativity and style re the things that this team have. but honestly, i think there are more teams that are much stronger than st paul among the finalists, and they should really imporve their final pieace in order for them to place this year.

    SCHOOL OF THE HOLY SPIRIT aglaia: thoe most powerful all girls team. i was really impressed by their last year’s perfomcance, excellent dance moves, not the usual stunts were showcased by this team last year. aglaia gave an excellent performance in the elimination leg,but i was not satisfied,since i waited for them to perform some unusual stunts again, but i thinkthis year, they focus more on dancing. im also expecting a lot from aglaia. since they’ve been consistent in placing in top3. 2 years ago 3rd place last year 2nd, will they make it on top this time?

    XAVIER dance x: the major crowd fvorite in the hs leg. many supporters of skechers were so disappointed when their favorite dance x didnt make it in the elimination leg. but miracle happened and they were able to enter the finals and took the 10th spot in the finals. i really beileve that dance x did a great job in the elimination round and i really thought that they will surely enter the finals easily, but i was wrong since the judges didnt recognize their piece. but good thing that they are now back in the game. goodjob and goodluck dance x. you guys deserve to perform and compete in the finals.

    my final top 3
    CHAMPION: ATENEO INDAK
    2ND: CLARET SCHOOL HATAW
    3RD: SCHOOL OF THE HOLY SPIRIT AGLAIA

    4th: Miriam Sayawatha
    5th: Xavier DanceX
