Open Professional Latin – Desert Classic 2016

The Professional Latin was the highlight of the evening. After an exciting final the winners were Justinas Duknauskas & Anna Kovalova. They dominated the final with their performance and left little doubt that they would win. Anna uses her feet beautifully with a superb leg action.

Open Professional Smooth – Desert Classic 2016

The semifinal started out with 14 couples and it was brutal to select 7 out of 14.  They were all good, although some better than others, which made it fun to judge.  The first four stood out and then we had to chose three more and be fair to everyone.  It was a nice final, so much so that at times I got carried away enjoying the moment.

Analog vs. Digital

Music is very important. Every dancer knows this. Most of us receive inspiration, practice and perform to music all the time. Music that you choose to play for yourself reflects certain traits of character and moods that you are in. So every dancer enjoys dancing to music that he/she is able to connect to, to draw energy from and to unite with.
