Morten Löwe & Roselina Doneva | Cha-Cha | Blackpool dance festival 2022

Who let ruzzians participate?!

Completely outclassed by the Russian masters, Kirill and Valeria. (Couple 14 in the background, and sometimes in the front). Mårten and Roselina were better in the jive. Their cha cha cha technique is peculiar and poor, compared to Kirill and Valeria. Kirill and Valeria have a fantastic dynamic, and are brilliant dancers, as we see here in their cha cha cha. Kirill and Valeria should have won all five dances, as Dorin and Marina were weak in all dances.

yeah, a totally lackluster performance from a very good couple :/

Helge, you are right, Kirill and Valeria's cha-cha looks great, and they should have won it. Concerning Morten and Roselina, I think they got the placing they well deserved in that final, which was not particularly strong. What I like about them is their elegance. You've mentioned under another video that their cha-cha looks more like ballroom dancers trying to do latin. In a way it may be true, but at least their dancing is elegant and non-agressive, filled with internal warmth. So, in general I like this couple, although their level is not so high as that of Kirill and Valeria. They make dancing look like dancing, have their own style (not so evident in this cha-cha, I agree), were really very good in jive and were the only other couple that made this final look as having some professionals in it, the first one, of course, was Kirill and Valeria.

@@Maria_Fomina I like Morten and Roxy, especially Roxy. She's a great authentic latin dancer with a wonderful technique, and you are right-they are elegant and measured in their approach to dancing. Here unfortunately, they fell flat, but even then-and I agree with you again-they did contribute to giving this final a semblance of its former glory. I just can't see how the current situation is sustainable in the long run. Kirill and Valeria rocked. They look like a completely different couple compared to their first performance only 6 months ago, which only shows their amazing overall progress. I did like the black version of the dress better than the nude though and would save the black one for the final. I also want to almost like Roxy's dress, but something is not letting me, don't know why...

​@@ficklefialka309 I agree that Valeria's black dress looks better, more elegant than the nude one. There were too many nude or brown dresses in the final as far as I can remember, Marina's and Roxy's as well. I even took once Marina for Valeria, untill she came a little closer. This black Roxy's dress adds nothing too her movements, it's upper part is very closed, the skirt is rather simple, not quite as a usual latin dress, but still rather elegant. I think Roxy's final dress was better. I like Roxy and Morten, too. He seems to be always in a very good mood, enjoying what he is doing. They are looking very good as couple.
