Tobeyaweni says the Hip Hop International South Pacific Islands Dance competition will see Fiji go up against crews from countries like Tonga, Samoa, Tahiti and New Caledonia. 

He says they will be competing for a spot in a World Hip Hop Dance competition that will be held in the US in August.
Tobeyaweni says for the past two months they have been very lucky to have supportive parents who have been helping fundraise for their trip to Auckland.

They will be holding a concert at Kshatriya Hall this Saturday.

The concert titled “ A Journey Through the Animal Kingdom” will start at 6.30pm and tickets are $10.
