Liberty Swing Dance
Liberty is an all West Coast Swing event (except for the Cabaret division). Division included were Non-pro Classic (Rising Star), Classic, Cabaret, Jack & Jill
Novice, Intermediate, Advance and Invitational, Strictly Swing Open, Team and Showcase.
All these divisions including all prelims are included in the DVD set - over 6 hours of dancing!
Wow! What an event the 2009 was. The Classic division with 11 couples was one of the best and tightest-scoring divisions I have seen for some time. Even though Tatiana and Jordan
brought in 1st place, Brennar and Tori were a close second with a fabulous performance. Tori is only 16, and John Lindo is the only event director who decided on no age limit on
the Classic division. Good for a $1000 2nd place prize!
The Cabaret division was also a great division at Liberty 2009. Great theatrical Arts routine, and a Salsa routine with two men performing was one of the best Salsa acts I've seen. Not to mention a 35 minute opening ceremony performance with all the pros!
The 2009 set is defininetly a worthwhile addition to your DVD collection.
$80 for the 3-DVD set, $40 for the Workshop Notebook DVD with all of the teachers on it and their lessons in summary form..

2006 This event has to be one of the classiest swing events in the country. A well planned and entertaining
opening ceremony and a great hotel just across the river from New York city made this event extra special.
The late night dancing had a 270 degree view of Manhattan from the 9th Floor overlooking the Hudson river.
Quite spectacular!
