There were many different well-known competitors, judges, organizers as Ron Montez and Wendy Johnson. The most interesting surprise was the appearance of two young dancers, Marina Shershen(11yo) and Kevin Kulish (9yo). They were amazingly beautiful and professional for their junior level. They danced in Pre-Teen & Junior Pre-Champ International Latin (C/S/R) and in Pro/Am & Amateur International Latin Freestyle Competitions Closed & Open, (S/P-D/C/R), Level: Open Bronze. In both they took the first places. |
Marina met her gifted partner Kevin Kulish one year ago at the Escondido Art Center when their two families were watching the
