Greetings!
We are so proud of all our students and fellow professionals who dominated the South Bay dance competition this past weekend. The top honors of the weekend went to none other than our very own Jason Wayne & Joanna Meinl who swept first place across every judge ballot in the Champions Jack & Jill. All four of our pro's were represented in the final and Nick pulled down 3rd place with his partner Rachael Bassias. In the Champions Strictly Jason Wayne & Tessa Cunningham took second followed closely by Yvonne & her talented partner Arjay Centeno. Not bad out of a field of 16 couples. Jason & Nick came in 4th in the Cabaret division with a brother improve routine. Yvonne Wayne & Barry Durand 1st place Champions Strictly Country Two Step.
