“The Snow Couldn’t Stop ‘Em!” Nashville Starz 2016

Well actually it did stop a few!

Taking place in January, Nashville Starz is prone to North America’s weather extremes, but situated in the southern city of Nashville, TN, it should be well clear of the Northern snow-belt.  Not this year!  Over the weekend of January 23rd Nashville endured record snow fall as did much of the northeast.  This necessarily impacted travel all over the USA and indeed some dancers were unable to attend although they had fully intended to compete.  Nevertheless, plenty of us did make it and organizer, David Hamilton, showed gracious equanimity and the event was as special as it always is.

“Amores Perros”

Translation: “Love Dogs.” It is very difficult to translate this from a “love” language like Spanish, and it is the only way it can really be described is as a passion, a seduction, a love and the carnivorous desire that Slavik Kryklyvyy & Karina Smirnoff served on the floor last night at the Heritage Classic.
