The scale of whether your ballroom dance skills are excellent or whether they need work, often lies in how well your body is communicating to not only your dance partner but to your audience as well.  Being able to communicate to your dance partner so that your bodies connect is essential; without it, you’re not dancing your just stepping clumsily over your partner’s feet.

The ballroom dancer that is able to successfully communicate with their body, is the ballroom dancer that we all cannot take our eyes off of.  Which means mastering how to communicate with your body is key to gaining the judges attention on a dance floor full of others all competing for the spotlight.

Here is a quick video I stumbled upon featuring Michael Malitowski & Joanna Leunis describing and displaying examples of how to communicate with your body via the Rumba.  Enjoy!

Who is KE?

Hi, My name is Karol and I'm a ballroom dance enthusiasts and a professionally trained fashion designer working out of my DESIGN STUDIO in downtown Los Angeles. I'm writing this blog to help promote the sport of ballroom dancing and to have a place for all ballroom dance enthusiasts to share in the challenges of preparing for competitions.

I often write under the name Vivian as a tribute to my grandmother Hazel Vivian Easley who was a talented fashion illustrator and now my good luck charm. What I love most about ballroom dancing is that it expands along all age ranges ... from kids to seniors, the ballroom dance competition floor is open to everyone to participate.

With my love of fashion and dance combined, I'm developing a ballroom dance gown rental business to help dancers offset the expensive costs of participation. If you're in need of a one-of-a-kind BALLROOM DRESS for RENT, feel free to contact me and I'll see if I can help: karol@KEdancewear.com
