Adjudicators' Congress Stuttgart © Goetz

The second day of the A>djudicators' Congress brought another series of interesting lectures that dealt with the use of Judging System 2.1.

Early morning Anna de Grande, England, started giving information on Technical Qualities in the Latin Dances. It was interesting to listen to her analysis of PAS/IQ regarding the various basic movements. She was assisted by a couple from Asia.

She was followed by Barbara Nagode Ambroz. Her absolute favourite topic is “Music, Musicality, Moving to Music.” With her absolute feeling for rhythm and enthusiasm she could motivate the whole audience to follow and clap various rhythms. Marius-Andrei Balan and Khrystyna  Moshenska were the perfect partners to demonstrate , showed Body rhythm and Body Accents.

Partnering Skills in the Standard dances were demonstrated and explained by Domenico Soale and his wife Gioia Cerasoli.

Movement to Music and William Pino are inextricably linked. He emphasized impressivly how music and melody influences a dancer. The demonstration together with Emanuel Valeri, Tania Kehlet and Alessandra Bucciarelli was well appreciated by the audience.

It was an intensive and very interesting congress for all participants. Many of them could leave the "Alte Reithalle" with these impressions. For others it was time to take their exams.
