Congratulations to our rookies Jack Zhao and Lauralyn Lin, who swept Beginner Smooth and also took home an overall 1st in Beginner Standard, placing 1st in everything except Waltz, in which they got 2nd. Congratulations to Maddie Leone and Julia Bowers, a powerhouse same-sex rookie couple. These ladies took home a well-earned 1st place overall in Beginner Rhythm, placing 1st in Chacha, Rumba, and Mambo, and 2nd in Rumba and Bolero. Enjoy your shiny trophies!
Congratulations also to our smokin’ same-sex couple Boris Yelin and Aniket Gad for a fiery 4th place in Championship Rhythm, and to Giorgio Gaglia and Anna Gavrilman for placing 4th in a competitive Championship Latin event.
A kudos to all team members for a successful weekend. We worked grueling hours before, during, and after the competition and still managed to make a strong showing throughout the finals and semifinals of the competition. MITBDT is so proud to have you represent us as hosts and competitors.
