US Continues to Lead!

US couples continue to lead, but this time in the Ballroom field.

BYU Brings Us to New Heights!

US National Amateur Championships 2016

Report by Keith Todd

Each year in March most of the country’s leading amateur and junior competitors make the long climb up the Provo Valley to the town of Provo and the Marriott Arena on the campus of Brigham Young University for the US National Amateur Championships. These championships are recognized by the NDCA and are granted to BYU by American Ballroom Company. To be sure it is a long trek, particularly for those couples from the East Coast, but nobody seems to mind.

The Windy City Open gathered six outstanding couples for their Professional Rising Start Standard category on Thursday evening. Three couples traveled from California, one couple came from Wyoming, another from South Carolina, and one couple flew in from Taiwan. This final had some of the best Rising Star couples in the country, making the performances exciting and the competition heated.

Pro Smooth At Vegas Open

It's been great to watch the Professional Smooth division from the sidelines recently but I must admit that it gives me a completely different perspective from when I'm actually judging. Firstly, when I'm watching I have time to watch a couple for a whole dance rather than a few bars.  I have the luxury to just get engrossed in one couple’s dancing, rather than have to hurry to compare their qualities to another couple.

The People’s Vote!

Last night at the American Star Ball the first leg of the Star Smooth Tour took place, from beginning to end it was full of excitement and when it came to the end result the people gave the unexpected winners the edge.
