And, they be... My Aunt and Uncle... I remember the days going with my mum and dad to the Royal Albert Hall and seeing them dance. Even caught one of their 'Latin Fantasy' show dances with another great couple Espen & Kirsten Salberg... AMAZING! I have all three 'Latin Fantasy' show dances on DVD... I know their 5 times World Latin/American Championship record has since been broken by the 10 Times of Riccardo Cocci and Yulia Zagoruychenko, but, lol, I don't mind as they a BRILLIANT dancers in their own right. And yeah, you can see how the styles of dance have changed over time... 😏 😎🇬🇧

Jive and Paso doble EXCELLANT. However, samba and rumba far behind. Unprecise timing in samba, and Alan has problem coordinating his arms with the music and the rest of the body in rumba. This is VERY DIFFERENT from the EXCELLANT Paso and Jive (also arm movements).
