SADTA Winter Festival B/R & L/A Competition (South Africa)

[KMAtkinson]

Hi Guys, just competed in my second dance competition, and did a LOT better than my first comp. We came 1st in Adult Bronze Ballroom section, and 2nd in Adult Silver Latin section (as opposed to coming 3rd and 5th respectively last time).

Here is the footage from our comp (abridged footage. Will post full footage once I have more angles of filming)


Any comments or thoughts would be appreciated. Couple 383.

Overall pretty good for a beginner.

I will only comment on Tango.. More attention to footwork and "shape". Proms also need attention .
I did like the way you commenced to dance ( apart ).

Well done on your placements.


After just a cursory scan of the first couple of seconds my first address on your next lesson would be to get your head out of permanent promenade position in waltz and quickstep.

Thanks, will work on that

Yeah, I've been trying to work on my tango. By far, our weakest dance of the ballrooms.

Oh luck-out! You just got free coaching.

Aaaand....I'm back (somewhat). Sorry for the delay, took a while to get the extra footage from my filmographer (aka, dad).

Here are the full Bronze Ballroom, and Silver latin footage links. Yes, I am aware that we have lots to work on though
