[ChaChaMama]

I'm probably the last person to have heard this, but I was just going through my e-mail and saw this message from the Las Vegas Showdown:

If anyone goes to this comp, I'd be interested in hearing your opinions of this partnership.

They are doing shows but not competing.

[tuftufwang]

phew. thanks for clarifying.

[fenixx]

Yes, they did a show at the NDCA Gala and are now travelling (Boston, Chicago, UK is next) doing shows and teaching

[tuftufwang]

When are they performing in Chicago and where? Does anyone know the details? Thanks!

I don't know the details, but I went to Max and Yulia's webpage, and it looks like Max was just in Chicago this past weekend, and will be there again with Yulia 2/8-9 and with Beata 3/1-2.

It didn't say where in Chicago, but I believe there is a link to contact them.

I love the way they look together and I watched Beata's old shows with a different partner :she is great. I am very happy for them.

sort of on-topic: i heard "hip hip, chin chin" at a BANANA REPUBLIC yesterday.

Since this seems to be such a hot topic right now I thought you all might like to know that Max & Beata will be performing on Sunday, May 4th at the Emerald Ball Dancesport Championships in Los Angeles.

Does Beata only go by one name - like Prince? It seems to be the pattern...

Her last name is Onefater. Story I heard is that she uses her first name because people can't pronounce her last name. Have no idea if the story is true or not. But, she seems to have started the first name only thing.

[Twilight_Elena]

Many dancers do that... Especially if they're ladies, it seems like when they're announced it's very common to hear the full name for the guy and just the first name for the girl. Like Madonna. :p
Come to think of it, in the Superstars videos I remember it's always "Bryan Watson and Carmen" and "Sergey Sourkov and Melia". *shrug*

[White Chacha]

Maybe it's a Latin lady thing. The Standard Superstars videos seem to have full names for both leader and follower. I don't own any of the Latin ones.

Max and Beata will be doing their show at Starlite Ball in South Bend,In. in May

[Easy]

I find it amusing, but at least they don't throw a "the" in front of it. Imagine...The Beata, The Carmen, The Valentina, etc :)

... and Dansesport Montreal in June 08
