DanceSport Carolina pros place 2nd in Pro-Rhythm Championship!

There's a reason DanceSport Carolina is known across the Carolina's for its unmatched teaching and dance training. This weekend, it became clear why this is...its teachers!! DSC pro's Elizabeth Malvasia and Anthony McKnight competed in the pro-Rhythm division of the Oklahoma Dancesport Championships and placed 2nd in an intense round of ChaCha, Rumba, Swing, Bolero, and Mambo. Exhausted and elated, the two proudly accepted their award before a warm and enthusiastic crown, and immediately began planning the training regime for their next event, the Southern Paradise Ball in Charlotte, NC, May 2nd. This dedication and focus is what sets DanceSport Carolina apart from the competition and makes it THE studio to dance and compete for! Congratulations to Elizabeth and Tony, and we look forward to cheering you on in May. For more on the 2010 Southern Paradise Ball, visit www.southernparadiseball.com

Big Band in the Big Easy!

Elegance, sophistication and glamor were in abundance at DanceSport Carolina's first annual "Big Band in the Big Easy" swing/Mardi-Gras party! Fishnets, fringe, tommy-guns, and boas mingled a professionally set Mardi-Gras ballroom. A live, 6-piece swing band pounded out Lindy Hops, Jitterbugs, Foxtrots, Waltzes, Rumbas, East Coast Swings, West Coast Swings, and more all night and the students shook, shimmied, and danced all night long! A black-tie catering company served New Orleans inspired dishes like jumbalaya, cajun shrimp, hush puppies and more! Like everything DanceSport Carolina does, it was first-class, elegant, sophisticated, and classy. Our reputation as the ONLY EXCLUSIVE dance studio of the Carolinas remains uncontested!

Students danced until their feet ached, and then danced some more! The Garver's won the costume contest for their unique 20's ensemble and recieved a $100 gift certificate to their next DanceSport Carolina event!! They have many to choose from: the "Southern Paradise Ball", our "Sizzlin' Salsa" party in July, or our "Waltzing in a Winter Wonderland" Ball and Showcase. The fun and excitement never stops at DanceSport Carolina! And each event outdoes the one before! You don't want to miss a single one!
