Latino Rhythms in Full Swing

Livin La Vida Loca!

Living the crazy life! I guess that is what made us start Latino Rhythms. From a group of ten people who started practising for an office performance to a dance school with over 1500 students and all that in a span of two years!
But now the time has come to grow further. To integrate all our students and members who have made Latino Rhythms into a vibrant dance community on the map of Bangalore, we are launching our brand new blog to increase participation among all of us. This blog is yours. We want you to actively participate, share your thoughts, your anecdotes, your comments, your videos and your pictures that are associated with Latino Rhythms or dancing to make our community even more thriving.
Send your stuff to latino.rhythms@gmail.com and we ensure you that we will publish them on this blog with your picture and name.
This blog will keep you updated about our ongoing events, parties and will serve as a melting pot of all our experiences associated with dancing. We will also be adding the most popular dance blogs and sites of the world to our blog so that you can visit these sites as well. So let the budding writer, photographer, editor and cinematographer in you come to life. Contribute and make this blog a grand success because this blog is yours and we want to hear from you. Lets make this the best dance blog of the world.
Happy Blogging

  • ALL the contestants will be dancing at the same time for a song played by us randomly , This will be the elimination round, Out of this 7 couples will be chosen to participate in the final round
  • Final round each couple will perform individually on the song that they have prepared, Eventually one winner will be chosen
  • A song should alteast be 1 min and 30 secs minimum in length and a maximum of 4 minutes, Any couple who perform below 1 min and 30 secs will be disqualified
  • Contestants needs to bring their routine song in their own cd in a MP3 format
  • Contestants will be marked on the criteria that was mentioned in our earlier post
  • Judges dicision will be final
  • ALL the contestants are expected to be at the venue not later than 6.30 pm
  • ALL those who need to pay an entry fee should ensure the same is paid before the competition.
