2012 GrandSlam Chengdu | The Final | Samba

The Samba danced by all seven finalists of the 2012 WDSF GrandSlam Latin Chengdu, CHN.

I totally agree -.-. It's very sad when female dancers not only dance harsh and rigid but also have boyish haircuts too. It's off putting.

[@latinom.1574]

Its mera me tin mera, and it is not a samba song (as everything in this video is not samba).Antique was a Swedish-Greek singing duo consisting of Elena Paparizou (Έλενα Παπαρίζου in Greek) and Nikos Panagiotidis (Νίκος Παναγιωτίδης in Greek) originating from Sweden which combined Greek popular music and lyrics with a Nordic dance pop beat. To say that it is samba is the same as saying cows can fly.

This is how you know the new judging system is still just the skating system with more numbers. A couple like Goffredo and Matus should not be scoring a 9 for physical connection, because they hardly ever have it. When they do, its all too much pull and push. In my opinion they don't even connect emotionally, they ARE two solo dancers on the floor, even when they touch.

[@xyf888]

I feel ever since Nino and Kristina won the European Championship, the WDSF crew have become even crazier - especially the female dancers... I see a lot of changing of the trends and the loss of femininity, which is alarming.

[@xyf888]

I think you're missing the point. I don't think these guys are losing masculinity. However to show that they're the dominant part in dancing, they pull out more tricks, more spins, more head flipping, more finger pointing just to name a few. Before we know it, Latin dancing will look Kungfu fighting. What we are losing is the quality of dancing and the ARTISTRY.

α ρε ΕΛΛΑΔΑ παντου εισαι...με τραγουδι των antique χορεψαν το δευτερο ζευγαρι

[@CDAFishboy]

@AceyBlade I want your opinion on Goffredo and his partner. To me his spins are crazy good, but he appears to be throwing his hips around in an exaggerated fashion well beyond the bending and straightening of the legs. He also appears to be way up on his toes with his heels way off the floor. His style is over the top from my standpoint.

[@booboodoll09]

What's the name of the 1st samba song, that Nino & Kryshtyna are dancing to?

[@re1l_28]

Я лох

[@MsLapraline]

Does smb know why Zaycev and Kuzminskaya don't participate here?...

[@xyf888]

I really feel sorry for Martino and Michelle - they're trying to be the dancers they're not, under the pressure of all those crazy young dancers who dance like maniacs... they tried to be hard hitting, but lost a lot of the qualities they used to be so good at...

[@vaisefiuder]

My gosh. Only 2 samba musics ( a real old one and an awnful one) on a SAMBA competiton, Including 2 rumbas and a Merengue, What i have to say about this? ALL BRAZILIANS ARE WRONG. FOREIGIN PEOPLE ARE THE ONES WHO KNOWS WHAT IS A SAMBA.

[@georgewu5]

I went back to take a look again of Matino and Michelle, I could not help but comparing her with Joanna who has all the controls in each movement, but I did not see it with Michelle. Getting a third place is already pushing the Russians backward once more.It is not fair for the Russians who are placed after the third place.. George Wu, AIA 2012-8-8

[@DancesportReviews]

Martino and Michelle should've stayed with WDC they will not get the results they want with WDSF, WDSF is looking for a completely different dance style to what Martino and Michelle bring to the table

[@TheMacnomara]

Is the loss of masculinity among men less alarming? )) Ballroom dancing is becoming more phisically intensive. Considering this trend, it's not surprising that female dancers don't look like females anymore...

[@Silutes_plentas]

what the fuck ???!?!?! (result) !!!

[@CDAFishboy]

@AceyBlade I read comments about Dancesport and see your comments frequently and you seem to have opinions based on real knowledge of Dancesport. I have attended one competition anf have learned the bronze syllabus for Int latin and half the silver. So I am learning basics.

[@alexanderwhyatt4678]

[@sandydee2001]

Love that Martino and Michelle dance with so much life and emotion. I want to get on the dance floor, their charisma just seems to pull you in.

[@IX19UT8O]

I like your tiny nutshell. A hint of the differences between the two organization is in their names. There's very little framing in the WDSF, too much individuality and not enough partnering. I do follow the WDSF because they make themselves available on KZbin unlike the WDC. It's ashame the WDC is not as available on YT as the WDSF. The more people they can get to see them, the more interest and publicity they get.

[@llbmarial]

Kryshtyna should do her samba tic better ......

[@CucNamCham]

I mean The Song at 12:

[@nicolyejoy5797]
