What can I say about the Ohio Star Ball being one of the largest events in the country running like a well-oiled machine from start to finish. The amount of talent that gathers at this event is exciting and totally electric for spectators and competitors alike.

Professional Rhythm

The professional competition in the American Rhythm category was small enough. Only 11 pairs started in the semifinal. There is an advantage of such small competitions in that judges have the ability to look at and analyze couples more closely.

Is It All About the People?

Ohio Star Ball 2015

Report by Didio Barrera

I always wonder what makes an exciting event.  Is it the dancing or is it the amount of people that attend that make you come back over and over again? I think perhaps it might be a little bit of both, especially when an event is starting to make its reputation. However, at the end like at the Ohio Star Ball, the amount of people attending brings an energy to any event that is hard to replicate with anything else.

The 2015 World 10 Dance was held in Key Biscayne Florida at the wonderfully organized Grand National Dance Championships. The venue was exquisite and the organizers payed the upmost attention to every fine detail that an event of this stature deserves. A huge “congratulations” must go out to Peter and Cassandra Schneider for organizing a flawless event and one that the United States can be very proud of.
