"They thrive on dance, and spend all their spare time just dancing," she added.
"Hard work reaps rewards.
"Ngareta Tuiloma is in both crews, and is really putting in the hours, while international judge Steven Grey said Shaylah Harris, who is only 7, was "killing it and the other girls in her team need to keep up with her. We have amazing talent in both crews, and I know they can go far".
The challenge now was to raise the money needed to compete at the nationals, in a very short time.
"We would love all the support we can get," Alannah said, the crews needing $800 to register, $1000 for travel and $2200 for accommodation.
"We are seeking any funding help we can get so we can focus on practising to make our routines the best they can be. There's lots of hard work ahead for these two teams.
"We are going to busk and have a sausage sizzle to help get some funds together, but we are going to struggle to raise all the money we need to attend this event. We are all very excited to be representing the very Far North, and are aiming to win. We are the only crew going to nationals from this area."
