Benedict’s passion for dance was ignited by countless videos of hip hop choreography circa 2010. He didn’t have a chance to grow much in terms of dance until he came to Melbourne for university. He was a part of the University of Melbourne Student Union (UMSU) International and participated in a flashmob choreographed by a fellow Flare member at the annual Night Market, which then directed Benedict to Flare Dance Ensemble.
After joining Flare in 2015, he took part in a couple of pieces for Flare’s annual production “Be”. His love for dance continued to grow in Flare, and he made lifelong friends along the way. In 2016, Benedict danced for Flare’s annual production “Ascendance”, and choreographed a gig piece for a student ball as well. Not long after, he joined the committee as one of the new vice presidents. He is dedicated to supporting Flare’s growth, both as a dance club and a loving community.
