Dancing while seeing stars! Featured
In Australia, their version of Strictly Come Dancing is called Dancing with the Stars, the same as the US version. It's not as polished or professional as our Saturday night extravaganza (a number of the 'professional' dancers are amateurs) but it's still quite good fun none-the-less. Where they have got it right though, is with their head judge - ...May 15 -
Happy Memories... Featured
It's been nearly two weeks now since we announced our somewhat sad retirement from competitions and it's given me time to reflect on nearly 25 years of memories. As with any career, there have been highs and lows, but I guess I'm quite fortunate to be able to walk away with the highlights closest in my thoughts.

So, in the first of a two part blog, here's what happened on our three week Jive course. Firstly, let me tell you one thing about the Jive; in my World it's not that popular. Now I'm ...May 09 -
What's Wrong with the state of British Dancing these days! What's Wrong with the state of British Dancing these days!
To be honest, I haven't got a clue if there is anything wrong; I just wanted a nice catchy title for my first guest blog. Let me introduce myself. My name is Paul Elliot and I am a ballroom dancer. That hasn't always been the case; I didn't start when I was three; I wasn't taken to lessons by my mom and I didn't have to form a partnership at ...Mar 12 -

A little bit about me - Sarah-Jayne
Well I’ve been asked to write this blog about myself and my dancing, but the tough part is where to start! I suppose the beginning always works well – so here goes…My name is Sarah-Jayne and I started dancing at the age of 3, firstly attempting ballet and tap but not being the most petite child it wasn’t really suited to me!
