I wouldn't pay the big bucks to see the show if there were alot of American Style couples. They are already competing here in the U.S. One Smooth and Rhythm couple each night sounds good, though.
I'm surprised no one has any requests/suggestions of Latin or Standard couples! In other news, one of my absolute favorite photos from last year's event is up on the DL photo blog so I figured I'd share. Gorgeous from both EnMotion Photography & Daniella http://dancelegends.tumblr.com/post/34386306017/pure-passion
i think we all know there will be plenty of them some of us want to see all 4 styles represented ( look at my nic lol) hence the signal.
No idea if these people are still doing shows, but would be lovely to see them if they did. Mostly these are people I have only watched on videos. They were competing before my time, so I never get a chance to see them in action. Would be good to see them at a "legend" event. William Pino & Alessandra Bucciarelli Alan & Donna Shingler Marcus & Karen Hilton Andrew Sinkinson Christopher Hawkins & Joanne Bolton Luca Barrichi Loraine Barry Schiavo Augusto & Hazel Newberry? Fabio Selmi Slavik and Karina allan tornberg and serena lecca?
Drawing from the other thread, maybe it would be cool to see folks who really propelled the Smooth and Rhythm styles to where they are today? Eddie Simon & Michelle Officer Michael Mead & Toni Redpath Tomas Mielnicki & JT Thomas Bob Powers & Julia Gorchakova Tony Dovolani & Elena Grinenko
If you did get Chris Hawkins and Joanne Bolton I would fly to the US just for this event! (and I'm based in Asia...) They'd be fab because he's a great public speaker and entertainer and she's the quintessential ballroom lady. Of course the dancing's not half bad either
Eddie Simon & Michelle Officer Michael Mead & Toni Redpath Tomas Mielnicki & JT Thomas Bob Powers & Julia Gorchakova edited to my preferences
Love hearing others preferences for this event personally wouldnt pay to see tony and elena id frankly rather see anna and johnathan tho they didnt compete together in any style they just have it!!
Yes, they did, once placing as high as 2nd in RS at Blackpool. She then danced with Pavlo placing 3rd in U.S. Pro Latin and Jonathan danced with Valetnia, winning a U.S. Pro Smooth title. Amended: if I recall correctly, Jonathan had also won a US RS Smooth title with Roberta Sun prior to dancing with Anna.
I can't believe they hadn't crossed my mind until you mentioned them but YES YES YES. Definitely this!
i dont count rising star championships for Legends status, personally That being said they way they ( Anna and Johnathatn) connect on the dance floor is beyond words for me I wouldnt even need the music to feel the emotion
Agreed... I was just amending that to my other points, simply as it spoke to his background in Smooth before he briefly danced and won with Valentina years later and after having danced in Latin with Anna.
