Couple Crowned At The 35th Annual National SHAG Dance Championships

When was the last time you went dancing? Like many people, you may do it regularly at home when nobody’s watching. For example, you might be cleaning the house and your favorite song comes on the radio. Before long, you are dancing behind the vacuum cleaner or perhaps using the broom as a partner. It can be a lot of fun to watch, especially from the sidelines. There are many people, like many of us who are bound to dance like nobody’s watching, but only do it when nobody is watching. On the other hand, there are some people who have a lot of talent in this regard.

What do you do when you are a talented dancer? You dance for others as a form of entertainment and you dance to keep yourself entertained as well. You might even consider taking things to the next level and perfecting your skill to the point where you can be a national champion. That is where these two individuals found themselves. They are dance partners and the spotlight was shining bright on them during the 35th annual national SHAG Dance Championship. By the time they get off the stage, they were being crowned as the winners.

This dance team has been dancing together since they were young, so it was perhaps no surprise that they would continue to dance together. They decided to try for the championship, which has been taking place in Myrtle Beach since 1984. In fact, there is not a similar dance competition in this style of dance that has been running longer in the United States.

Although they are world-class dancers, they also have jobs, just like you and me. She works as a cosmetologist and bartender and he works for the Department of Defense as a contractor. Although they have that secular work, they are able to wow the judges with what they do on the dance floor. I’m sure that you will be quite impressed as well:
