How would you describe your club in 3 words?
passion, devotion, excitement
What is your club about?
AUBG Dance Crew is about creating a dance show by combining choreographies, music and talent. We develop our own concepts for the concerts, look for sponsors and create a marketing campaign to promote the event. We start planning early every year in order to be able to execute our amazing ideas. The most successful show we ever executed was “A Night at the Movies” in 2019. It was a mix of everyone’s favorite movie choreographies, stage lights and décor, costumes, etc. Apart from what we do, we are also having a lot of fun during the whole organization. This is the way we bond and get to know each other.
What kind of people are you looking for in your club?
We are looking for people who are willing to devote part of their time for the creation of something beautiful and have fun at the same time. We want to see people with sparks in their eyes when dancing or creating art. The most important quality we are looking for in the people we recruit is creativity and being able to take initiative. Thus, they can create concepts and actually put them into practice.
What kind of events do you organize?
During the academic year we prepare and organize a Grand Dance Show. We come up with a different amazing theme every year and create choreography to match our theme. It is the biggest event of our club, created to spread joy and positive energy among the AUBG students and of course the club itself. During the year, we also take part in many smaller events such as the Open House and AUBG’s Got Talent with 3-4 dances which are like a warm up for our actual Grand Show.
What is the meaning behind your club’s name?
The AUBG Dance Crew stands for family that has the passion to create beautiful art. We value creativity, devotion and friendships.
