I own and rock people’s faces off teaching ballroom dancing at Dancers Studio in St. Paul, MN. My husband and I compete professionally in American style and wrangle eight children in our spare time. I’ve been teaching and competing in ballroom dancing for over 25 years and have lots of opinions on it. I am an expert by any means, but there are quite a few dancers who are better than me and I have a solid knowledge of basic technique, so suck it.

A Little Dancing

ballroom dance competition

keeping up the big kids

V competed at Twin Cities Open Ballroom Championships last weekend.  (So did The G and I, but more on that later.)

She was nervous (wouldn't talk to me before she had to dance).  She loved wearing her sparkly dress, fancy bracelets and necklace, shiny shoes, and makeup (AND lipstick!).  

Everyone cheered for her when she was done and the MC (the fantastic Mark Brock) gave her amazing intros.  I think she liked that part the best.  

1 down.  Many to go.
