BLACKPOOL 2013

Monday May 26th 2013

Monday night at the Blackpool Festival included the British Professional Rising Star Ballroom Championships.
A couple from the United States won this event - Andrey and Yuliya Klinchik by placing 2nd in Waltz, Foxtrot and Tango and 1st in Quickstep. Consistency in their dancing helped to give them this win. The second place couple from Russia – Stanislav Zelianin and Irina Cherepanova placed 4th in Waltz, 1st in Foxtrot and Tango and 2nd in Quickstep. The 3rd place position was taken by  Marcin Kalitowski and Katarzyna Florczuk from Poland placing 1st in Waltz, 4th in Foxtrot and 3rd in Tango and Quickstep. Another couple from the United States placed 4th (5th, 3rd, 4th, 4th) – Andrea Zaramella and Kristie Simmons.
It is interesting to note that one of the Lady finalists from the Ukraine, Lilia Gladiuk (above) wore a 60’s style dress. Could this be the start of some retro fashion?
