On its 18th year anniversary, the UPLB Street Jazz Dance Company launched the BREAKOUT campaign. Carrying the tag line “All Set, All Out”, the group had the vision of surpassing their limits and being the best they can be all throughout the Academic Year 2016-2017. With this concrete goal in mind, the group rived boundaries to achieve things they have never done before. UPLB SJDC kicked off their 2016 competition season at the Luzon elimination leg of Crissa Campus Dance Synergy 11 and Ego Supreme Crew Wars 3, where their all-female team Fatale ranked 1st place and all-boy assemblage Beaux successfully made it to the finals out of 40 participating colleges in Luzon. The group gave a heartwarming routine at the debut of VIBE Dance Competition in the Philippine shores. Emerging as one of the 20 finalists out of 75 applicants, SJDC brought to Manila stage something they have been keeping at the confines of Los Baños. Their “Make You Feel My Love” piece left the Ateneo Henry Irwin Lee Theatre audience in awe, with some even shedding a tear. SJDC also conquered the first ever Isuzu Danz Max Championship, with Fatale bringing home the championship title for the college division and Beaux finishing at 4th place in the open division. The ladies of SJDC competed against familiar faces in the collegiate dance scene, beating PUP Power Impact Dancers at 2nd and FEU FEUsion at 3rd place. The all boys team, on the other hand, battled with crews from all over Metro Manila. UPLB SJDC Fatale closed down the competition season in a consistent Top 1 ranking as they finally bagged home the much coveted Crissa Campus Dance Synergy championship title with their VMAs inspired routine. UPLB SJDC Beaux finished at 4th place. The group’s feat in the previous year empowers them to make 2017 an even better one. With a major event on the line, the group pushes harder than ever to make their 18th year the biggest one yet. Verve 5, the fifth installment of UPLB SJDC’s concert series is set to happen on May 6, 2017 at the Centtro Convention Center, 3rd Floor of Centtro Mall, Barangay Batong Malake, Los Baños, Laguna. This year’s Verve is entitled DEVITRIFY, a verb which means “to undergo change from a vitreous to a crystalline condition”. Directed by the company’s alumna and current Creative Director, Kristina Macaraeg, a show full of talent, art, and emotions is set to be revealed once again. Witness stories of brokenness get refined and redefined into artistry.

Nymph-like and lithe, ballet dancers have personified the epitome of ethereality for centuries. However, no one ever has the nerve to peer behind the velvet curtain to see the true grit of a ballerina’s life.
From a young age, the female ballet dancer trains relentlessly, in the hopes of one day rising to fame, of becoming a star. Unfortunately, for most young dancers, the possibility of that dream becoming a reality is slim. It is more likely that she will spend most of her career in the corps de ballet; the ensemble group dancing in unison around the featured soloists. The dynamic of the dancers who make up the corps de ballet is unique only to them. Despite sharing a bond closer than blood; they are painfully aware of how short their careers are. Every girl in the corps de ballet prays to be noticed, to be promoted, and to achieve her dream. Adrienne, is one of the many swirling bodies in the backline of the corps. Adrienne is a young dancer with the Grinkov Ballet, talented, but often ignored by the company’s merciless director. She finds a pair of scarlet stockings, after which she is suddenly catapulted to fame and stardom. She finds a pair of scarlet stockings, after which she is suddenly catapulted to fame and stardom. Unaware and dismissive of the heavy price attached to the stockings; Adrienne's manic obsession with keeping the power she believes they possess to herself escalates, and she begins to lose touch with reality. The Scarlet Stockings features set, lighting, and sound design by some of Benilde’s best young talents; as well as the scholars Ballet Philippines Dance School (both past and present). With original choreography by Cheska Reyes (formerly a scholar of Ballet Philippines) The Scarlet Stockings, Benilde’s first fully balletic dance thesis production in nearly a decade, intends to take audiences on a journey, and show them physical and emotional struggles of what is arguably the country’s most difficult and underappreciated career. What is the price of attaining a goal? Where does one draw the line between ambition and obsession?

Ayon sa nag-post na nagngangalang Juan Medina, nais niyang ipaalam sa ang mga kalokohan ng mga dance organizers at booker. Ayon kay Medina, nais niyang ipakilala ang mga manloloko at mapanira sa karapatang pantao ng mga dancers. Ayon sa printscreen mula sa isang cellphone. Nag-uusap ang isang organizer na taga-Mapalacsiao, Tarlac na nagngangalang Vaughn Santos at isang booker na si Johann Paulo Magpayo. Sila diumano ay tila nag-uusap tungkol sa isang dance contest. Ayon kay Medina, ang contest ay gaganapin sa Tarlac. Sa unang bahagi ng printscreen, ay binanggit ni booker ang limang (5) crews na Techno Jazz, FOS 417, Junior FMD Xtreme, Names Going Wild, at The Elite Pioneers. Tila nagre-request si booker na lima (5) na ang ipanalo ni organizer. Sa susunod na usapan ay tinanong ni booker kung ilan ang judges na kukunin ni organizer. Sumagot si booker ng "Kala ko 7 dala mo? 5 judges ko... puro dancers lahat." Sumagot muli si booker ng "Royal Dance Crew at Xtreme Attraction." Nagtanong muli si booker ng "Isa n ung aken don?" Patungkol sa judge na manggagaling sa kanya. Bilang karagdagan sinabi ni booker na "Basta lahat ng mapapapunta ko ppnthn (papupuntahin) ko." Sa bandang huli ay nagkasundo si booker at organizer na apat (4) ang manggagaling kay organizer at isa (1) kay booker. "4 judge galing skin... 1 sau" Sa huling bahagi ng pag-uusap ay naitanong ni booker kung sinu-sino ang mga judges at kung mananalo ang mga dala ni booker ay hati sila ni organizer.
"Snu2 mga yan" "Basta kapag nanalo mga akn hati tyo no hahaha" Naging malinaw sa usapan na ang booker ay magpapadala ng contestants at sa kanya na din manggagaling ang isang judge. Ayon sa Facebook post ng booker na si Paulo, ang Champion sa pa-contest ay ang kanyang dala na The Elite Pioneers. Sumunod ang Beat Ex United at X-Force Pampanga. Every person has a dream they want to reach. A person will go through hardships, encounter rejections and even compete with others who stand in the way; one does everything to find his passion and achieve his dreams. But what happens if at the end of the road the result is not what you expected? Artists long to find their passion… to follow their dreams… to find their bliss. What happens if the very dream is a nightmare? If the star you try to reach, is a black hole sucking you in? “QUARTERED” revolves around the different stories of artists as they discover their identities in the art scene. It will take you through the journey of the creative person. You walk hand in hand with their struggles, in continuous contention against expectations, labels, rejection, commercialism, and other forces compelling these artists to question whether the undulation between fulfillment and failure is worth it! You help them decide by joining us in this unusual interactive performance where you are at center stage and the artists surround you with their difficulties and triumphs, with their misgivings and joys. You come and give them hope. QUARTERED is a dance production presented by the Department of Dance in the Arts and Culture Cluster of De La Salle-College of Saint Benilde, with support from the National Commission for Culture and Arts, Philippines and the School of Design and Arts Dean’s Office. The show opens at the 6th Floor, Black Box of Benilde’s School of Design and Arts on November 23, 2016 (Wednesday), with runs until November 26 (Saturday). There will be different show times per day (November 23 (Wednesday, 1pm & 7pm), 24 (Thursday, 1pm & 7pm), 25 (Friday, 1pm & 7pm), and 26 (Saturday, 3pm & 8pm).
