The Namibian Annual Music Awards (NAMAs) 2019 is well on the way to set a new bar again, not only for the Namibian music scene but across the African continent.

NAMAs 2019 is thrilled to announce the call for this year's auditions for dancers to perform as part of the support for the myriad of stellar performances set for this year's biggest night in Namibian music.

The awards will again select the best of the best of Namibian dancers from the two-day audition open to any aspiring dancers that would like to join the official NAMAs dance crew line-up for this year's event.

The NAMAs dance and performances department will this year be led by Namibia's own former Miss Namibia, sensational actress and experienced dancer Odile Gertze who will oversee the process.

All dancers wanting to audition need to be at least 18 years of age or older and be either a Namibian citizen or legally be able to work in Namibia, and must bring either a valid Namibian ID, Namibian passport or Namibian birth certificate.

Non-Namibian citizens can also audition if accompanied by a valid Namibian residence permit allowing you to work freely in Namibia. Candidates arriving at the auditions without the required valid documents will unfortunately not be considered to audition.

“Our focus is to elevate the NAMAs every year and dancers form part of this exciting objective. We thus call out energetic dancers who simply sit at home shelving their art because of the lack of platforms, to come out and showcase their talent,” said John Ekongo, member of the NAMAs organising committee.

The host studios of the auditions this year, Pulse Studios, is a proud partner and supporter of the NAMAs and Namibian talent. Pulse Studio is a fitness studio based in the heart of Windhoek's CBD.

The studio is a refurbished industrial space offering vaulted ceilings, chunky pillars and steel trusses, contrasted by soothing warm design elements such as flowing drapery, African-print seats and appealing wooden floors, making the space a truly beautiful and unique environment to train in.

Pulse Studios aims to create a motivating environment, fun and stimulating programming, high-quality instruction, cutting-edge fitness solutions and lastly, a positive supportive community in which you can joyfully explore your fitness and health.
