Hello, My name is Bella Febry and I am the Programme Director and Head Coach of BellaTrix Dance Company (BDC) in Weston-super-Mare.

Let me introduce to you our International Open HipHop team - Queen B’s - who will be competing at the USASF Dance World Championships in Orlando, Florida in April 2023.

After winning our qualification at the BCA Nationals in Telford earlier this year, we are beyond proud of this incredible achievement.

We are determined to give this team the opportunity to chase their dreams and put Weston-super-Mare on the map at the highest International level.

Our motto at BDC is ‘DREAM, BELIEVE, ACHIEVE’ and our dancers represent this with their talent, commitment and dedication.

Our dancers are shining ambassadors for the young people in our town, showing what can be achieved with hard work and support from those who believe in you.

Each of our 12 dancers, aged between 15 and 30, are required to fund their own travel, accommodation and competition fees - which can be very costly. These costs alone total £20,000, so in order to make the experience of competing at the World Championships as accessible as possible for our dancers, we are searching for support intially towards our entry fees.
