Congratulations to all the Brooklyn DanceSport Club Finalists at the 2013 USA Dance National DanceSport Championships

Not only did BDSC have 3 amazing US National Champions Friday evening (Pasha Stepanchuk and Anastasiya Danilova winning Amateur Latin, Evgeniy Raev and Gabriella Sabler winning Under-21 Latin and Patryk Ploszaj and Anna Kaczmarski winning Youth Ten-Dance), BDSC also had 3 finalists in these events! Evgeniy and Gabriella placed 3rd in the Amateur Latin while we had two finalists at the Youth Ten-Dance Championships: Stanislav Pavlov and Jessica Karpishin and Christian Yeung and Samanta Filip. Stanislav and Jessica stood on the podium by placing third and Christian and Samanta placed 6th in the Youth Ten-Dance Championships. An amazing start to the USA Nationals for Brooklyn DanceSport Club’s couples!

An exciting beginning to April for BDSC!

Last month’s fabulous results at the US Nationals were followed by a collection of exciting events and news at Brooklyn DanceSport Club.

BDSC’s April first started off with hosting 2 of the greatest Latin couples in the world, Michael Malitowski with Joanna Leunis and Sergey Sourkov with Agnieszka Melnicka. Michael and Joanna taught private lessons and a seminar at the studio on April 12th while Sergey and Melia taught a couple of private lessons on April 13th! It was amazing seeing such talented dancers teach our students and the energy and vibe that they give off is truly astonishing!

Following the visit, a group of BDSC couples (Denys Drozdyuk and Antonina Skobina, Pasha Stepanchuk and Anastasiya Danilova, Jason Dai and Patrycja Golak, Dmitry Nikishkin and Olena Shvets, Guy Platt and Victoria Mroz, Stas Pavlov and Beatrice Polyakova, and Ryan Raffloer and Shelby Joy Cole) performed at this year’s Dance Legends. The show, which was choreographed by BDSC’s very own Eugene Katsevman and Maria Manusova, was quite breath-taking and was received very well by the crowd, with some people even giving a standing ovation.

Quite possibly the most exciting news of April thus far were the results of our Junior couples at the Junior Blackpool Festival. Patryk Ploszaj and Anna Kaczmarski had an incredible Junior Blackpool experience, placing 10th (out of 170) at the Junior Latin and 5th (out of 125) at the Junior Jive. Christian Yeung and Alexis Turko also had a successful Blackpool, placing 52nd (out of 170) at the Junior Latin and 36th (out of 125) at the Junior Jive. Larry Tokar and Juliana Hoff’s best result came at the Junior Samba, where they placed 32nd (out of 164).

Congratulations to all the couples who competed at the 2012 Junior Blackpool Dance Festival!
