The Desert Classic Times

Official Newsletter of the Desert Classic DanceSport Championships

Ballroom Enthusiast,

It is only 6 weeks until the Desert Classic and we are very excited about this year's events. The entire weekend promises to be an incredible competition. Entries are already pouring in so be sure to reserve your hotel room right away!

Enter our "Desert Dancer" Contest!! The Desert Classic signature graphic is a fun cartoon we call our "Desert Dancers." In past years, we have used a caption that says, "I danced in 110 degrees and survived." We want to retire that caption and find a new one. So, we are having a contest with a really fun prize for whoever writes the best (in our opinion) caption. You don't have to attend the Desert Classic to participate. Full details on how to enter are in this newsletter.

You may have already heard that the room rates for the fabulous JW Marriott Desert Springs Resort & Spa are an incredibly low $125 per night this year. The rate includes a $15 room credit that can be used in the hotel. And for $1 more, you will receive spa and gym privileges (hotel taxes extra). We've included more information about the resort in this email.

The deadline for entries to the Desert Classic is June 17th. Entries received after that date may be subject to a $30 late fee.

We look forward to seeing you very soon. And thanks for subscribing to the Desert Classic Times!

Sincerely,

Igor & Irina

Paradigm DVD--Official Videographer of the Desert Classic

Paradigm Digital (DVD) was created in 1992 by owner and former dance competitor Michael Carter. The business was born out of his passion for dance, camera equipment, editing and videography. "Being a dancer has really helped in knowing how to shoot the competitive dancer and anticipate movement" says owner Michael Carter.

Paradigm DVD strives to stay on the cutting edge of the latest digital equipment to bring dancers the highest quality video possible. "We know that competitors enjoy re-living their experiences so we do our very best to make sure everyone is 100% happy with their videos" he added. Read a glowing testimonial about Paradigm DVD from USA Dance or visit their website to get more information.
