We are immensely proud of our 2026 Elite Team. Each and every individual on the team received one or more High Gold awards this past weekend at the Talent Africa regionals, whether for one of their dances or a modelling item. Collectively they raked in a phenomenal 27 High Golds!

These girls spend on average nine hours per week on refining their technique, practising their routines and ensuring their tumbling tricks and techniques improve - and it was evident on stage.

Well done team - UPA all the way 🩵🙏🏻

Unicke Praise ✨🤍

Built on the heart of Luke 6:38, Unicke Praise is the blessings, worship and Christian community of UPA — a space where faith, fellowship and purpose come together.

On Friday evening we hosted our very first Blankets & Bibles, Blessings & Brownies evening, and what a beautiful night it was. 🕯️📖🍫

A special thank you to Tannie Knoppie for sharing such meaningful insight from the Bible about thankfulness and living out the passion and talent that God has placed within each of us.

Coach Tenícke and Coach Uné assisted the girls with the highlight of the evening - our prayer chain craft project, where every link carried handwritten Bible verses, prayers, and heartfelt words of encouragement. Seeing every prayer added together was a powerful reminder of the strength of community and faith. ⛓️🤍

The evening was filled with love, worship, voicing our blessings, brownies, warm blankets and hearts completely filled with the love of God.

And this is only the beginning…

Our next event is already in the making for the end of July. 👀

Keep your eyes open for P&P,P&P if you want to join. ✨
