Been busy with my practices this two months preparing for the 16th International Standard and Latin Ballroom Competition held on 28th November 2009 at Bayview Beach Hotel. It's our 1st attempt after 1 1/2 years of beginner basic, managed to enter the semi-final, top 12 couples out of 55 couples after several heats but unfortunately, we did not make it for the final.....sigh!!!! Need more hard work and looking forward for next year.........
"Good dancers don't make it look easy - they make it easy; ease in movement and postural alignment is an underlying factor in the development of good dance practise and a long lived practical enjoyment of dancing"
