Dancesport 2008

Dancesport was amazing this year. I competed in more events then I ever had, and I have a great time. The picture on top is of me and my Standard partner Josh. We danced in the Open Novice Standard Competition. We didn't get far, but it was still fun with all the atmosphere and practicing together. The bottom pictures are of my Latin partner, Paul, and me dancing the Paso Doble. We didn't get far in this dance either, or the Open Novice Latin Competition, but we were competing against couple that were at least 3 years ahead of us, so I am glad that we even tried. We did, however, make it into the semi-final round of our class event of the Rumba. Plus, my roommates and Adam and Anna came to see and support me, so I was happy. I even have some videos that I hope to put up so that you can see them. Overall, I am determined to work hard and at least make it into the finals next semester! As you can see, I am loving dancing!!

Sweet video! Yay for Laurel! I think you should straighten you arm just a little bit more when you put it over your head... just a thought. You looked great. I never got to dance like that...
