Where to start...

Snatched was a beautiful reminder of why we fell in love with this dance in the first place—an electric night filled with artistry, courage, and connection. We’re deeply grateful to everyone who made it possible from the dancers who poured their hearts out on the floor to the audience whose energy lifted the room higher, and everyone else in between.

For us at Opia, this was more than just a battle; it was a homecoming. We’ve missed the waacking community dearly, and hosting this was our way of giving back to this community and dance that brought us together 11 years ago. From the bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU! ❤️

And now… let’s just say the inspiration is flowing, and there may be more magic on the horizon. Stay tuned. ✨

This is us, this is Opia. We're hot bitches, and you're very welcome ;) 🔥

Special shoutout to Parquette for the space, our amazing dj @namcofbc, our wonderful hosts @jaybb91 & @lieutenantpenda , and @vixen_waacking @fanny.blackwidow
@serendipity.is.me our spicy battle judges .
