The Jukebox Juniors are a young and extremely talented group started by coach and choreographer Liara with two primary intentions.
1) Providing kids in her area with something to do, and 2) bringing the community together regardless of race and background.
Liara wants the group to succeed so much she teaches them all for free.
Winning
They have already been winning dance compeitions.
They even travelled to Las Vegas to compete as the first ever British group to make it to the International Hip Hop Championship finals.
Keep Going
Liara is sister to Tevini (12) and aunty to Darnell (12) who are both in the group. The rest of Jukebox Junoirs are Tanisha (12), Courtney Southam (12), Courtney Fitzgerald (10) Reuel (13), Tavah (12), Sunni (14) and Kate (11). They are all from Cardiff. They have all been dancing together for 3 years.
Liara started dancing when she was five and started teaching when she was 15. The group have to raise their own funds to keep them going.
They have packed bags at supermarkets, busked and organized shows. They rehearse every Sunday and Mondays after school.
Depending on competitions they rehearse between 4-6 hours every week in a converted storage unit under a railway bridge in Cardiff.
Jukebox Juniors and Liara's inspiration comes from artists like Electric Boogaloos, Don Campbell, The Lockers and Uncle Sam.
Impressed
The judges were very impressed with the group's t
alent and choreography. When the Jukebox Juniors came to the auditions the judges called Liara out to congradulate her on how well the group performed.
If they won Got To Dance, Jukebox Junoirs would use the £100,000 to help get a rehearsal space.
Closer
Jukebox Juniors are now one step closer to that £100,000 as you voted them through to the live Valentine's Day final. With a routine full of new tricks and with the group staying as on point and tight as always the judges loved them again and you voted them through.
