Wow :!: :!: :!: (and OUCH!)

Thanks for a great link, peach!

Actually some of the clips might be relevant to the Salsa-club vs Salsa-ballroom topic http://www.dance-forums.com/viewtopic.php?t=2291

Yeah, I don't think I've ever seen women do shines quite like that! :) Very powerful dancer.

Ya, that girl was psycho scary. She would do a split in the floor and then just go into convultions. She's actually from Toronto, so if anyone is coming up for the congress, bring your hockey gear...

Now just imagine having a girl do these things in front of you. :shock: I think I´d probably freeze on the dance floor. :oops:

I think, the scary part came from the fact that she overdid it, if she had stopped after the first "kneeling" it would be spectacular. On the other hand, if she felt that that's what she had to do to express herself, who am I to judge :) , since she really seemed to be "into it" and not doing it just to show off.

Actually, I've looked through a bunch of clips on that website and she is one of a few of my favourite followers there from stylistical stand point (when she was dancing on her feet, not her knees :) )

I tried to access the link and I got a message saying that I was unauthorised :cry: Tried to register but, that didn't work to well either :cry:

Bummer. When this thread was started, I was able to access the video clips easily. I wonder what happened.

The clip peachy was talking about was totally amazing. It was of a regular salsa guy, with some pretty darn good shines, and a girl who must have been either inspired by the moment or on serious drugs! Splits, flips, spins, you name it. she was wild! :shock: 8) :D

Funny! :lol: :lol: She really is a very good dancer and has no problem becoming one with the music but in other clips she sometimes forgets that she dancing with a partner. :?

Unfortunately, they closed the videos to the public and will only allow XBoard members now. :cry: :cry: Bummer, really some good stuff at that site.

I think I have been able to access it now :lol: if it is the same girl, she was dropping to her knees, like a jazz/pop video dancer?

I can do that, just don't ask me to get back up again :wink:

I registered :lol: and the "trick" is that you are emailed a password, which then lets you get access. You don't choose your own password. Didn't spend too long so I don't know if you can change the password to something more memorable.

Yeah, I've been a member for a year now. They will allow you to change your password after registering. :D
