You MUST be joking me, right!? I knew they were getting back together in March next year to perform a show, "Glamour", together - but this! Wow, I am so upset that I didn't know, I have to search out some pictures of this now! Hanna's Rumba is just . . . perfection, heaven. Man, I love that girl far too much! Thank you so much for the information.
I'm not joking!! It was real (I had to slap myself in the face to realize it I haven't found a site wich has the pics of that show uploaded yet, but as soon as I do I'll post a link here!
Some American couples did all right too: Delyan and Boriana semi finalist in Latin, Gherman and Iveta semi finalists in Standard and 2nd in Showdance, I can't remember all the others but results are posted.
Those pictures are amazing! I can't wait until the video gets posted. Here is a video clip of Paul and Hanna's recent practices: http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoID=1434364716
I asked Rob Ronda about the pics of the show. He said they'll be comming soon!! So hang in there! I'll keep you informed. Did I say their show was great?
Thanks for sharing that, dancesportgirl... I especially enjoy watching videos of dancer's studio time, outside of performance & comp. Sami
