Dear All,

It is always an honour to dance at the Blackpool Final. This year, our first Blackpool we successfully defended our the 5th in Amateur Ballroom after making it through seven rounds of competition. Despite all the pre rounds which we gave it our best, and it was an exciting night dancing the final at the Empress Ballroom Winter Gardens. We embrace the challenge with high spirits as we learn to grow and improve along the way.

It was a magical night, but more important, we know our hard work would not have paid off without your continued support.

As always, we owe our gratitude to our beloved teachers, Hanson & Carolina who are forever there to guide us. We are also blessed knowing the support and cheering of the Cimen Team along the way.

To our sponsors, Chrisanne Clover, IDS dance shoes, Ho‘s dance wear, and Lella Milano. We thank you for your generous sponsorships over the years. You support is invaluable to us!

Every time we are at the Blackpool Dance festival, it is a boost to our confidence. We know we are staying in our top shape and we believe in our ability to continue to aim high. Every major competition is a booster to our confidence, and we look forward to sharing more good news with you in the years to come.

Let me also take this opportunity to thank all our friends who were there for us last night. It was wonderful to know that you were there for us as we gave our best performance!

Warm regards,
Eric & Liis
