A Triumph of Talent: NVC Repertory Dance Ensemble Shines at ACDA South-Central
The Northwest Vista College community felt a surge of pride as the NVC Repertory Dance Ensemble returned from the American College Dance Association (ACDA) South-Central regional conference.
Over the Spring Break, these dedicated dancers committed to an intensive experience, traveling to the national festival that brings together premier dance programs from institutions across the nation. This annual event, encompassing 11 regions, provides a platform for knowledge sharing, networking, and artistic exchange.
Northwest Vista College, San Antonio's only participating community college and one of the few in Texas, consistently attends this large national dance event. While the NVC dancers have always gained valuable experience, this year's achievements are exceptional.
NVC Repertory Dance’s performance of "TECHTOPIA," a captivating piece choreographed by NVC instructor and former NVC Dance student, Brittany Lopez, was selected for the coveted Gala Concert. Performing in the Gala Concert is a historic milestone for NVC, as it is believed to be the NVC team’s first-ever selection for the Gala Concert.
Out of nearly 60 dances presented throughout the conference, "TECHTOPIA" was chosen as one of the 12 standout performances. This achievement is particularly significant as NVC was the only community college represented in the Gala Concert, sharing the stage with renowned dance programs from institutions such as the University of Texas - Austin, Texas A&M University, and many more.
Congratulations to our NVC dancers. Their achievement is a shining example of the talent and dedication thriving within Northwest Vista College.
