The Professionals in Rhythm, stepped up to the plate and many showed up making this a full semifinal round of competition. We were slightly disappointed to see that in the other three styles, 6 or less couples participated, a strange occurrence since we have heard so many professionals complaining that the other events able to run so far had not included professional competitions. Nevertheless, the competitors that came gave the attendees a good show and some wonderful performances.
As we mentioned this was the first multi-day event that offered professional categories, but lucky for us all, including the organizers, the pro/am competitors stepped up to the plate and the organizers were still able to dance all styles in three days of competition. The competition is located in Minneapolis, MN, but it is called the Twin Cities Open, because there is another city called Saint Paul, MN, and they are basically attached to one another.
