Introduction
The Dance Sports competition of the Intramurals 2024 is inspired by the
Dance Sports as practiced worldwide. This event brings together dance enthusiasts
who share a passion for dance. It is geared towards inspiring students to embrace
dance as a form of sports and not simply as a means for entertainment.
Dance sports combine artistic expression, athleticism and teamwork. Just like
any other sports, it promotes physical activity, creativity and social interaction.
However, unlike the professional dance sports, this competition is designed to fit
the peculiarities of the students and is limited to three dances of ballroom genre.
Welcome to the Intramurals 2024 Dance Sports Competition! Get ready to be
dazzled by the grace, passion, and athleticism of our talented dancers. Today, we'll
witness a spectacular display of cha-cha, tango and contemporary dances from our
competing dancers representing their teams. Join us as we celebrate the beauty of
movement and the power of rhythm.
Before we proceed to the competition proper, we would like to invite our
Committee Chairperson for the Dance Sports Competition, to read to us the

Segment 1: CHA-CHA
The cha-cha-cha, often simply called the cha-cha, is a lively Latin dance with
Cuban origins. It emerged in the 1950s, evolving from the mambo and danzón. The
dance's name comes from the distinctive sound of the dancers' feet as they execute
quick, shuffling steps. The cha-cha is characterized by its energetic rhythm, hip
movements, and intricate footwork. It's a popular choice for both social dancing and
competitive ballroom dancing.
Let us all welcome our competitors to the center stage:
