I used to watch this all the time on PBS I love this ❤

[@TheAverageNomadDanceVideos]

Fun stuff to watch :)

[@faithtvonline]

Bill and Shirley were amazing!

[@TheAverageNomadDanceVideos]

With a capital "A" 🙂

Shirley is so down to earth. i was star struck when i met her and had a few coachings with her. She is awesome

[@christianorsos]

@@jessicacosentino1772 She's one of the best Latin dancers of the 90s. I guess you must attend an Arthur Murray studio since that's where she coaches

You've been a real hero uploading these classic clips from Championship Ballroom Dancing - It's kind of surprising that there isn't a lot more of it on KZbin

[@TheAverageNomadDanceVideos]

Thanks 🙂 It wasn't cheap having a company transfer 300 VHS tapes to digital, but I felt I needed to preserve the history. I'm about to start asking people if they have any I can preserve for them. Every day a VHS tape degrades just a little more until one day, they're unviewable

[@natasandler3307]

My favourites here are Tony Meredith & Melanie LaPatin who were also starring in "Dance with me" movie (1998)

[@TheAverageNomadDanceVideos]

They made a huge impression on me and my dancing in 1990s :)

[@melisandelalavandere8812]

Thank you so much for posting these. Used to have many of these performances on VHS. Would watch them over and over again. 👏👏👏

[@TheAverageNomadDanceVideos]

I still love to watch them again and again 🙂

[@JJ-fz9ki]

Tony and Melanie.....

Такая ностальгия❤😊

[@angelmorningstarr9504]

Team Tony and Melanie

[@TheAverageNomadDanceVideos]

A tour de force 🙂

[@guyleny747]

Also, I would like to have the 1997 or 1998 it's the one where Jean-Marc and France Mousseau win 1st place in the Latin finals. The final competition dances, individual dances and the award. That would be awesome? Thank you for posting these videos.

[@TheAverageNomadDanceVideos]

I have many VHS tapes to digitize. I don't know if I have the ones you are looking for, but people are giving me more tapes all the time. If you haven't done it already, go to my main page and click on "playlists". I have over 100 dance events there 😀

[@mayatbileli1720]

Gocha and Shorena.

[@TheAverageNomadDanceVideos]

Love them! 🙂

[@shez8840]

Great to see these old vids. Does anyone know the name of the cha cha cha song? 😊

[@guyleny747]

What is the title of the singer of the first song Cha Cha, please?

[@TheAverageNomadDanceVideos]

Sorry, I don't recognize the song

[@marilynhovan7702]

Who was first!

[@TheAverageNomadDanceVideos]

I've added the placements 1-6 in the video description. 1st place went to Bill Sparks | Shirley Johnson 🙂
