He's very hit or miss for me, though more often hits. I was trying to find his quickstep remix of Little Mix's "Wings" for a friend the other day,...
I can't remember where I heard it but it's been said that the world of TV ballroom and competitive ballroom are severely divorced. It's great that...
Oh my gosh yes!! Thank you so much for finding this! And thanks again to clumsy fellow for the initial ID!
I had a group lesson with a DWTS pro once who didn't charge separate fees for those things. I'm glad I got lucky that it was that pro -- I'm sure...
Thank you very much for these IDs! Any idea where I can get the 6/8 version of this song that they use for the VW? All I'm finding is the version...
Does anyone know of any ballroom dance *video* blogs, i.e. on YouTube? I'm trying to kick mine into gear (have had a few successful videos already),...
Does anyone have the Waltz, Tango, and/or Viennese? Thanks! [media]
The highest I've ever paid was around $140 with a $15 floor fee or something like that. And *that* blew my mind. o_o

Is that actually a thing with WDSF videos? Even stateside videographers tend to leave the music played during the comps on the vid, copyright...
There seems to be more to it than that in open work, what with the positive and negative connections (or partnering, period), parallelism of the...
My partner's and my competitive goal is to make it to an Open Smooth final where we get to dance to My Bombombomb by Mo Horizons for the fox.
Apologies if anything I said made it sound like I was bashing WDSF. It's just unfamiliar to me and my issue was couples not listening to the...
1. This is fascinating. 2. Yay Emanuel and Tania! They were delightful at Dance Legends. 3. I'm glad the basics were rewarded. 4. Nevertheless,...
