Maltina Dance All 7: Qualifiers for final battle emerge at PH audition

The first step into how the famous Maltina dance academy would look like was crossed at the Port Harcourt regional audition of Maltina Dance All (MDA) season seven tagged “The Evolution” which took place at the Atrium Event Centre in the garden city recently. Eight budding dancers were able to satisfy the judges with their dance steps and were thus selected from the hundreds that participated as potential family representatives. These eight dancers, alongside their family members will now progress to the next phase in this highly competitive selection process. Continue...


The rave-making family show sponsored by Maltina, the premium non-alcoholic malt brand from the stable of Nigerian Breweries which has brought happiness and excitement to homes across Nigeria and beyond shortlisted Ebi Williams Konugah, Sotun Briggs, Felix Ekadio, Ikumonein Titus, Nornubari Treasure, Jones Pius Samson, Emmanuel Asiyefia and Miaya Tom as the deserving and potential family representatives and qualifiers into the MDA house. They will however undergo comprehensive medical screening which is on-going and the medical fitness result will ultimately be the basis for the selection of their family considering the highly physical and mental rigours of a competitive dance competition like the MDA.

Not to the surprise of many, the Port Harcourt audition was highly entertaining and undeniably in line with this year’s MDA theme, ‘The Evolution’. Contestants across all ages displayed a high level of dance dexterity which made it pretty difficult for the judges to select the finalists.  Indeed the head of the panel of judges at the auditions, Muyiwa Osinaike, confessed that if it was possible, he would pick all the contestants into the Maltina Academy. He said he was truly enthralled by the presentations of contestants. 

The first day of the auditioning witnessed regional  dancing competition among four different age groups- ages  5-12, 13-19, 20 -30 as well as 30 and above. Contestants in each group competed for a range of exciting prizes - Home theatre systems for first positions, Blackberry phones for 2nd positions and 21” Flat screen TV sets for 3rd positions respectively.
The show, according to Mrs Ngozi Nkwoji, Senior Brand Manager, Maltina is all about the emotions, excitement, fun and the unbreakable bond that ten families will showcase when they challenge themselves by learning and performing various dance styles from the 70’s, 80’s, 90’s and to the present in the famous Maltina Dance All academy.
