Semi-Finalists in the US!

What a great weekend! On Friday night , Liza and I danced at the USA Dance Nationals 2012 in Baltimore, MD and it went extremely well. Starting out with 29 couples in the Amateur Championship Latin category, we danced through the first-round and quarter-final as one of the most recalled couples and placed 7th in the Semi-Final. The crowd was great, cheering us on, and we just became more and more pumped with each round. Before the Semi-Final, we decided it was unlikely we would go any further and we should have fun with it, giving it everything we've got. It definitely paid off when we placed as the next couple into the final. With only 3 recalls away from the next two couples, making the final was definitely a possibility. After such a great evening, and such little preparation we are extremely motivated for next comps to come, especially Blackpool 2012!
