You're Sweet Enough Dance Competition

Today, 1^st November 2021, Lake Health and Wellbeing in collaboration with the Curriculum Development Unit of the Ministry of Education in St. Kitts, launched the You’re Sweet Enough Dance Competition.

Beginning today, both high and primary school children in St. Kitts and Nevis, their parents and teachers, as well as school alumni are eligible to enter the dance competition and receive a chance to win prizes including a Chromebook, a tablet, a projector, and a water cooler.

Participants will have to learn the official You’re Sweet Enough dance, record themselves performing the dance to the You’re Sweet Enough jingle and then upload the recording to the competition’s webpage for a public vote. To make their performance stand out, participants can add some variation to the routine and use props that will enhance the message of the jingle.

Participants will have three weeks to submit their recordings with submissions closing on 21^st November and the public vote taking place from 22^nd to 29^th November.

This dance competition is part of Lake Health and Wellbeing’s ongoing You’re Sweet Enough campaign which aims to tackle the high rate of non-communicable diseases in St. Kitts and Nevis by encouraging the public to adopt a healthy lifestyle. Specifically, the campaign focuses on encouraging the public to reduce their consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages and select water instead. 

Those interested in taking part in the You’re Sweet Enough Dance Competition can find out more about the rules, access videos of the official dance and jingle, and submit their recordings here.

Sponsors of the competition include Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine, Taiwan ICDF and Pure Water.
