Adjudicators' Congress | Day Three 11/08/2014

Peter Maxwell On the third and final day of the 2014 Adjudicators' Congress here in Stuttgart, GER, the lecturers brought down the house time and again with their insightful presentations on Judging System 2.1 as it pertains to Latin.

Natasa Ambroz, Lene James and Anna Bezikova each presented their views on how to score the particular Component that DanceSport Academy supremo Shawn Tay had assigned to them. (Shawn underwent hip surgery very recently and was not able to be in Stuttgart himself. Our personal "get well soon" wishes reach him together with the request that an audio-visual technician be contracted for future congresses of this size and importance.)

DanceSport legend Peter Maxwell wrapped up the three-day multi-disciplinary Congress with his lecture on scoring Choreography and Presentation under Judging System 2.1. And with the most appropriate observation that brought it all to the point ... All of it delivered in true Maxwell-style!

"The integrity and the success of DanceSport depend on YOU," Peter told the 250+ adjudicators in closing his lecture.

Critical Praise for Do your dance 10/08/2014

Reviews and Ratings We had invited those who have purchased and watched "Do your dance" since it became available on Friday to review and rate it on the Vimeo on Demand page. Almost immediately two "clients" turned critics in the attempt to win the complementary coupons that entitle them to watch our next ten (10) productions FOR FREE.


They are:

  • Ismael Garcia Sanchez
  • Wilfried Menzinger (of whom we assume that he is in some kind of a family relationship with Kathrin Menzinger - who in turn appears on the posters for "Do your dance" together with her partner Vadim Garbuzov)

Congrats and thanks to both. Thanks for the five-star ratings. Thanks for the reviews! Even though the latter were very short, they were to the point. Wilfried's "the magic of dance" and Ismael's "nice" won them 10 complimentary coupons each. Contact us via message on Vimeo with the e-mail address that you want them to be sent to.

And to Ricardo Duarte: please contact us too. You will also get a free pass for the WDSF PD Super GrandPrix for your review, "Great video and great idea!! Continue the good work!" ...

To all others: keep the reviews coming! And keep on renting or buying "Do your dance" to do so ...
