I AM REALLY PROUD :o)
 

My Daughter's hobby is Ballroom and Latin dancing.... today she had a competition up at Bracknell and so far in the 4 comps she has participated in she has only ever made either the 2nd or 3rd round.... today she made the finals in both the Waltz and the Cha Cha Cha :D

Not only did she make the finals she came 3rd and 2nd respectively :D Also made 2nd place in the couples Jive and 5th in the Couples Waltz.

This is Lottie dancing the 3rd place Waltz and the runner-up Cha Cha Cha :D

Sorry, just had to shout about it :D

I dont like the look of him.....

Why?

^ LOL@this:lol1:

Your daughter has done very very well SG.you should be very proud of her and you are!:thumb:
:)

The man is Simon Cruwys and the Woman is Heidi Cruwys - they are Brother and Sister and were British Champions :D Nowt strange about them at all :D

I bet Simon cuts hair for a living !!

Well done to your wee lass.

her placings didnt have anything to do with the fact she was dancing with British Champions would it ?? ;):D

No, he's a dance teacher! :D And no, Lottie isn't in the big league to be lucky enough to gain points for her dancing partners. The further up to go it gets a bit politicy though :D It's worse than real politics :D

Well done to her https://www.clicksmilies.com/s0105/a...smiley-033.gif

SG My wife has a few medals for latin /ballroom/oldtime dancing inculding gold/silver and bronze, she had been doing it for 10 years till she met me at 15, then it went out of the window:D:D well done to your daughter, my wife says keep it up she could be a champ one day:D, If I'm being honest she was brilliant and I don't why she gave it up, because she was so good, she made me very proud:D :thumb:
Cheers
Colin

well done to her and nothing wrong with having a proud mum moment!

Glad to share it
:)

cath

well done to her, excellent achievement :)
Used to do ball room dancing myself when I was younger, but dropped it in favour of karate :) then dropped that in favour of girls and drinking :):) Then dropped that lot in favour of getting married :)
chris.

Sad that we all give up the things we loved isn't it :) I used to be a damn good gymnast but gave up.

As for the ballroom dancing, she is following in the footsteps of her two cousins... Bianca was a British Champion and Danielle is moving up the ''charts'' pretty quick now :D

Julian Clarey, move over :D

She has done really well, congratulations.

Chris,
Not the sort of thing a guy shouts about on here, and what about the guys in your office if they knew as well:D
Cheers

Nowt wrong with blokes dancing Colin - needs strength and stamina you know :)

Yeah and 9 pints of Lager:D

Very cheap effort at humour to infer a bloke is gay because he likes ballroom dancing. Its an extremely skilled occupation and used to be very widely practised by most men in this country and they definitely were not "shirtlifters"!

The whole object was to have an excuse to chat a nice looking girl up anyway. Bit like going ice skating at Richmond Ice Rink as PSL and I well remember.

:lol:

Well done Lottie :thumb:

Les,
Not at all amte I wish I could dance like them too, as I said in my previous post on here my wife is an ballroom dancing champion too, the trouble is that when we do dance I put my size 11 feet all over her dinky size 5's mate, and one time I went arse over head aswell:D
Cheers

Tell me about it Colin,

Les :)

Nice one Karen, give lottie my congratulations....!!

trouble is, she looks far to grown up!!

Good effort, nice to see that she has something not only keeps her fit and active but occupied and diciplined as well, you should be proud.

After some of the other posts on here about young 'un abuse and disrespect to others and their property this is a refreshing change.

Mind you, have to agree about the hairdresser though ;)

Well done lottie, and Karen and Dan for bringing up one of two fantastic kids.

Neither the type to hang around on street corners gathering ASBO's but will go somewhere in life.

Big hugs for lottie from me and charlie.

i will put my bitterness aside soulgirl

well done to your lil girl a lil angel she is and looks like an awesome dancer, she will do u proud :cool:

It's only political bitterness Moses :) Thank you for your compliments.

I am in the midst of putting together a discussion forum as there isn't a good one on the net for UK ballroom/latin - I hope it will grow to be a great community. So, if you know anyone remotely interested please get them to pop in :D
