It’s 10 Out of 10 for Grand Nationals 2015!

Report by Keith Todd

Photography by Stephen Marino

There is always some thing special about a world championship and this year the Grand Nationals Championships was the proud host of the 2015 WDC World 10-Dance Championship.  With the prestige a world championship instills into an event comes the responsibility of providing a first class venue and “championship” style experience for the couples arriving from around the world and their supporters.

A1 Ballroom

All the A1 finals in the Open to the World Championship Scholarships were danced at night. The winner in this A1 Ballroom was Natalie Rezai w/ Sergey Kiselev 1,1,1,1,3. This lady has been one of the most successful competitors in this division over the last year. I found her dancing very powerful today.
