Benilde dance group places fifth in Hip-hop Olympics

THE SAINT Benilde Romançon Dance Company (SBRDC) landed in the Top Five at the finals of the recent 2016 World Hip-Hop Dance Championship held in Las Vegas, Nevada. SBRDC, the official dance company of De La Salle-College of Saint Benilde (DLS-CSB), had a 10-member delegation which competed in what is dubbed as the “Olympics of Hip-hop.” The title for the Adult Division was claimed by New Zealand’s The Bradas. The UPeepz from the University of the Philippines were hailed as the champions in the Megacrew Category, beating runner-up groups from Korea and New Zealand. The Alliance, an all-Filipino independent dance team, won bronze in the Varsity Bracket, which requires members between the ages of 12 to 17.
