May I Have This Dance?

So once upon a time I minored in ballroom dance at BYU.  I was on team for about a year and a half and loved every second of it.  I took both latin and standard classes but usually performed standard routines. which I loved!!  This was my favorite waltz.  A vienesse waltz.  I am the one on the left...if you watch closely you can follow me throughout the whole routine and if you can't keep track of me, cause sometimes it's tricky I am also the one on the left at the end of the dance.  The formations are pretty cool to watch as well...although since this was the first semester on team for some of my teammates- the lines are not always perfect.  The formation routines were choreographed and directed by Brady Stevenson.  He is fabulous.  Some day, when technology is not smarter than me I will figure out out how to post another waltz, a jive and a samba... but for now this will have to do.  Don't let the length scare you- i'm only in the first 2 or 3 minutes.  But if you want to keep watching after there is a foxtrot perfomed by two members of the touring company (I can't remember their names) and a samba performed by Emron Grover and Natalie Wakefield.  Then the latin formation team does a cha-cha.
