Hi, I'm intersted in seeing a competition, are there any in States? I mean I'm sure there are, BUT I'M JUST MORE INTERSTED IN SEEING COUPLES LIKE YULIA AND RICARDO etc? Where are those competition, how do I get info about them? tickets, places etc?

There are a lot of high level comps in America but you don't know if a particular couple is going to be there. I have seen Yulia and Ricardo at both the Emerald Ball and the Ohio Star ball. The Emerald is over for this year...and I can't swear they danced there this year because I was too busy to go. The next one you can be almost positive they will be at is the Ohio Star which is in November. Each of those has their own website so you can go to their sites and determine what their ticket policies are. As far as Ohio...buy early or you won't be getting to the Pro Latin Competition.

go to the National Dance Council of America (NDCA) web site. Click on the "event calendar" which lists events and competitions for the entire calendar year. Each competition is different as per the organizer. You can "link" to the competition of your choice however, you probably will not know who in terms of professionals will be competing until the date of the competition draws closer to when the entry deadline is completed. Also, you can go to the "dancesport series" web site which also lists competitions by the region of the country and this will give you links to the competitions in that region of the USA. For the most part, regardless of competition, you can purchase evening tickets on the internet well in advance of the night the pros compete and either have the tickets mailed to you if you order early enough or pick the tickets up at the registration desk at the competition.
