I took the 3rd Place at the Jack and Jill category in Tango ....Jack and Jill category...great experience! In this category, followers and leaders were judged individually, and were paired up at random selection, rotating the partner for each song in a Ronda. So I danced with 10 leaders, oh my god, what an experience! The evaluation criteria is technique, adaptation to a new partner, musicality, personal expression.
I went through three days of competition from qualifying rounds toward semi-finals and finals. Each day we had about half dancers left to continue the race. What a unique experience I had dancing at the finals with a female leader, and then again at the tie breaker ...by the way they didn't tell us in advance but the tie breaker was between me and another girls, and yes I did , snugged my 3rd place. For me personally, it was such an outstanding experience ... I grew up and learnt a lot in dancing and in life, also helped to learn a little bit more about my inner self. Definitely it was worth going and doing it, and if you were to ask me if I would do it again, I say "hell, YES"! Comments are closed.
