DWTS Bonus: Brandon & Brittany’s Paso Doble
When I wrote about the Dancing with the Stars results show last night, I mentioned the amazing paso that came from two of the competitors in the junior division. I found it on YouTube this morning and had to post it. These two are in the 13 and under category. You know, in about five or six [...]

DWTS Season 6, Week 9: Semi-Finals
Suddenly nine weeks are gone and we are at the semi-finals. It was a very close competition tonight with some great dances, as well as a surprising clunker. This week each dancer did two dances that they picked out of a mirror ball at random. As has been usual lately, there’s one ballroom and one [...]

DWTS Season 6, Week 8: Great Ballroom & Clunky Latin
It was another two dance night with the competitors just a week away from the semi-finals. The ballroom looked great, but the Latin had nearly everyone a little bit off. This week is also the first time in any season that the competitors have been allowed to do lifts before the freestyle.
Here’s the rundown of [...]
DWTS Season 6, Week 7: Ballroom, Latin & Inujry
Quite the night in the Dancing with the Stars ballroom! Everyone had to do a ballroom and a Latin dance this week so everyone was working hard. For Crisitan it was a little two hard as he pulled a muscle midway through his samba and ended up going to the hospital.
Here’s the rundown of tonight’s [...]

This is an odd Geek Out, but I feel it has been brewing for quite some time. It really became apparent as I started moving blog entires from the old blog into the new one, that I am pretty obsessed with dance. It’s an obsession I’ve had for quite some time.
Zoom back to sixth grade [...]
DWTS Season 6, Week 6: Two Dances
The great thing about getting past the half way point is that now it’s two dances per week. For week six, the stars had to do a dance they had not done yet as well as participate in a country-themed group dance.
Here’s my take of tonight’s dances, in order of performance:
Jason & Edyta: Jason did [...]

DWTS Season 6, Week 5: Latin Rules!
And here we are, half way through the competition! Weird night with the judges. I disagreed a couple of times tonight with their take on things. Overall it was a solid night in the ballroom now that the not-so-good dancers have all been sent home. And, making it even better was the chests on display [...]

DTWS Season 6: Week 4, All About The Waltz
This week was set up to be either a distinct favorite or a disaster since two of my favorite dances were up tonight: the paso doble and the Viennese waltz. It turned into an evening of waltzes with so many performances that moved me. Unfortunately, the pasos were mostly less than impressive–hopefully when the dance [...]

On Dancing with the Stars this week one of my very faorite dance troupes performed: The Alvin Ailey American Dance Theatre. I first discovered them when I was in college and they performed at the University of Alabama. I was blown away by the choreography, the music, everything. It is simply some of the most [...]

DTWS Season 6: Week 3
I was in disagreement a lot with the judges tonight. And I was disappointed by my personal fave in this competition. But yet there was some great stuff going on tonight too. Here’s tonight’s rundown, in order of performance:
Marlee & Fabian: Another fantastic night for these two. Marlee did a good job keeping count in [...]
