Hello again,

thanks for your reply.

I look on the URL and I have some Questions.

I visit the German open Championships in Mannheim last week, but I see only two couples from the USA.
Shvarts, Anatoliy - Golbert, Renata Professional Latin and
Chmerkovskiy, Maksim - Togni, Samanta
Amateurs Latin.
So its very difficult for me to compare the level of dancing in the USA with Germany.
I dance in the second highest amateur class ,and with a little luck at the next regional championships in September I move up to the A-class.

I look for a real high level trainer.(and a dancepartner?!? ) )I look at the webpage of the Metronome Ballroom but there are no infos about competition classes. I think also that a beginner class isnt the right thing for me.

I dont no much about the conditions and organisation of competitiondancing in the USA. Where can I get some informations about it? Perhaps it is possible to compete in the USA with a US partner.

Thanks again

Sincerly

Andreas

Curl,

I recommend Hannah Cole, or Mark Weise & Valentina Kostenko. I don't have their contact info, but you can get in touch with them through the Metronome Ballroom in San Francisco. www.metronomeballroom.com

Sincerely,
Jonathan Atkinson

Hi!!!
I know this post is very old, but I found it 'cause I was searching on the web something about Maksim Chmerkovskiy and Samanta Togni
They're no longer dancing together, but I know they danced in Usa some years ago.

Do you know anything else, or do you have any picture or video about them

Thank you so much
