XMas Party Awards Night A Hit
Monday, 7 December 2009
The excitement of festivities on Saturday night 5 December was noted by all who attended the Factor10™ Strathpine State Centre Awards Night and Christmas party.
Parents, friends, children and grandparents shared in the joy of watching the Little Legends open the evening with a classic Martial Arts performance led by
Mrs O and her talented Little Legends team.
The night rolled on with an amazing “Taster” by our talented instructors Mr Lloyd, Mr Ramage and Mr Perey. The scene was a very comical self defence routine that was choreographed with props and all. This was a great crowd pleaser.
The Factor10™ Demo Team took over the performances with routines that just blew the crowd away with scenes that focussed on the Black Belt qualities of Speed, Power, Intensity and Balance.
The night was interspersed with award presentations and nominations and recipients are listed below.
