Shillong, August 1 : From a dancing school located at Dongkadiang, Nongmensong known as EDI Dance Academy, two boys namely Steve Jyrwa (16) and Ashmit Gurung (18) gave an outstanding performance at Hip-Hop India in Mumbai telecast on Amazon MiniTv.
This Hip-Hop India Dance Competition is being judged by renowned Bollywood actors and dancers including Nora Fatehi and Remo D’Souza.
After their performance at the final audition in Mumbai few days back, Nora and Remo gave them 100 pts along with a standing ovation to Steve and Ashmit paving the way for the dancers to move into upcoming rounds of the competition.
Nora and Remo highly applauded the duo for their dancing styles and timing. These boys were being taught the art of dancing seven years back by the proprietor of the academy, Zarina Jyrwa and Rohit Singh Rajput.
Zarina told that Steve and Ashmit were very hardworking. “To send boys for competition outside the state and sometimes at the national level is very challenging because of the expenses and have to bear from our own pockets”, she said.
She expressed high hopes from Steve and Ashmit to win this competition for the Academy and the state as a whole. She said she couldn’t believe when Nora and Remo gave standing ovation to her students.
“It was indeed a proud moment”, she said adding that the boys need support from the people of the State.
