It may have been bitterly cold on Monday night, July 1, but Dubbo City Physical Culture (DCP) parents, carers and friends rugged up and braved the chill to watch the girls perform in their Term 2 Display which was held as a Chocolate Competition.

We may have been a few girls down due to Covid, RSV, pneumonia and other flu symptoms that are around at the moment, but that didn’t stop the rest of them dancing their hearts out and performing like no one was watching.

The girls performed in front of two long-serving DCP members who judged the girls with the Best Marcher and Most Consistent Worker in each age group. The girls then chose a chocolate for their efforts.

They have just about learnt all their routines for this year and were given the chance to shake off any nerves and see how much practice they need to do before Interclubs start in August.

Physical Culture is a dance sport which promotes confidence and encouragement, and teaches the girls about positive body image from a young age. They learn routines that are fun, upbeat and fuse many dance styles such as jazz, ballet, hip hop, contemporary and aerobic dance, which is the perfect combination designed to increase strength, fitness and flexibility.
