Students wowed their friends and family with terrific performances at our fourth annual Holiday Showcase held at Pine Ridge Country Club. We started with a fabulous dinner, then moved onto dancing and the show.
Congratulations to all our student performers, many of whom were in the spotlight for the very first time. Judith Gruber was a hit with her flirty foxtrot; Dannielle LaFaye danced a sizzling hot rumba; Matt Fleming was fantastic with lifts, dips and drops in his tango; Pat Valenza shined in her swing -- you can tell she's always having a blast.
Then Francina Doyle cracked us up when she "drove" onstage for a West Coast Swing to Santa Drives a Hot Rod. Carlos Sucharetza and Marlene Waller performed a gorgeous bolero filled with emotion; Tim and Kristine Snell were awesome in their mambo; Tim and Sherry Niederkorn (Tim in full Santa gear) looked fantastic in their swing and Karen Wiese was wonderfully graceful in a lovely waltz.
In the final numbers of the evening, Al Kovacik and Loretta Fraser were so entertaining with their Lindy Hop and Michelle Blanchard brought the house down with a sexy cha cha (check out the red striped stockings). David and Sandi Fink were so much fun to watch in their Argentine Tango; Melissa Barone was amazing with her mambo and Igor Kantorovich and Elena Furman showed plenty of style in their samba. The evening ended with pro performances by Andrea, Matt, Katie, Raymond, Lisa and special guest Rob. It was a great way to start the holidays! See all the pictures by clicking on our photo gallery.
