From the bottom of my heart and dance shoes I thank you for posting this. The modern scene is so much more frenetic now, still beautiful of course but the unadulterated, no, "uncomplicated" style shown here is sublime.
Sometimes i feel there is a little bit too much attention for the past. *But* there is a reason we call these Giants. Terrific dancing imo..!!!! So thank you for sharing once again.
The music was 2 minutes and 20 seconds long… and normally just 1 minute 30 or 45 seconds. That’s quite a long time stamina wise and maintain such high level of dancing. It helps that they danced so light.
No battle. The BEAUTY of the Waltz is Marcus and Karen. They are on time with the music, and express the music beautifully. It is bewildering for the mind to see Wood behind the music. The steps are supposed to be IN the music. The music must be IN the movement. "Dance is the music in the movement." (Bill Irvine) Marcus and Karen have beautiful technique, and elevation is excellent. To me, Sinkinsen is a bit stiff in comparison. The unique couple is Marcus and Karen. I love to watch them.
Yes in this comp the best waltz goes to Marcus and Karen. I agree with what you said about John’s timing seems to be a bit late, especially at the beginning. And Sinkinson does seem a bit stiff. But I would probably call it the “youthful hard edges and power” :) the dance is not as refined and polished like stones on the seashore, which Marcus/Karen’s dancing is a lot more refined.
These two exceptional champions are to be emulated in as many ways as possible. Videos are not always a direct revision of the action esp the audio to vid mix. IMHO ..john and Anne are in time and delaying the lowering action to its max, comm to rise eo 1, cont to ris 2 AND 3 lower at THE END OF 3. We should try to enjoy, not be armchair critics, otherwise we could point out John And Annes perfect body connection and lead and follow compared to Marcus and Karens constant gapping. And lets be sure that Marcus and Karen are spectacular champions for sure but competition judging is a judgmental personal opinion task based on learned principles , there is but a whisker between the two couples on this night. I thoroughly enjoy Simons vids and appreciate the blast from the past,thank you.
I agree with you that John is here balancing with music on the edge, sometimes in quite a dangerous way, I think that he does not just reflect the music he hears but also adds something to it being like some additional mysical instrument in it. He creates music, not just reflects being in it
@@ctherats6023 I agree with you. John Wood gets such amazing compression on the first beat that enables him to get more out of every 3/4 bar of music. It looks languid, but it is not. He is an absolute master.
@@ctherats6023 . Agreed . The control of the compression to deliver the power on the accented beat is completely in time with the music. It’s more languid and softens the movement without loss of power. I miss the clarity of these couples. These girls though: Barry, Lewis/Gleave and Hilton are bloody sensational. To allow these men such notoriety, while generally moving backward!!!!
Markus Hilton was sublime. Smoth as butter. No one compares
John & Anne!!
Watched this again on September 16, 2022; stunning, there is still nothing that exceeds
Try Mirko. Can't deny his smoothness.

I could not agree more.
Yeah today is too excessive.. needs to go back to this
競技過火取代優雅輕盈；女性被要求拚命後仰的姿勢增加了前進的困難，身體線條縮短，腰椎和軟組織受傷。

Fantastic!
Marcus Hilton 👏

Hiltons here, but, Sinkinson did have a splendid Foxtrot.
狐步之王，勢在當頭⋯⋯
Andrew Sinkinson/Lorraine Barry 1987、88、89 黑池業餘冠軍，1990 轉職業組，黑池「狐步」技壓 Marcus Hilton 與 John Wood。
1. John Wood 2. Andrew Sinkinson. 3. Marcus Hilton
Marcus and Karen for me, even today they would in my mind be No1.
For me, it’s 1. Sinkinsin, 2. Hilton, 3. Wood
I'll pick Marcus and Karen first then Andrew and Loraine for second then John Wood and Annie Gleave for third 🙂
從所給瞬間照來看，線條最美的是Sinkinson 1st , John wood 2nd, Marcus 3rd. , 因為他／她頭的方向都不好又不協調。
從全程看，第一名仍是Sinkinson 一對。比較了就更欣他們的基本功丶流水般的移動和對旋律的詮釋。Lorraine 和Lucas 的Shows 比她和Sinkinson 跳更有火花，舞台效果。更能突出Lorraine跳舞極緻的fluidity.第二是Marcus. 他跳得生趣，優雅。身體線條特別為Ballroom 打造。Sinkinson 能引領Anne 脫胎換骨，輕鬆跳舞。
但我心目中超班的始終是William . Massimo 兩對舞者。他們對ballroom 的熱情丶用心，舞伴間的信任丶默契令人非常享受丶嘆為觀止。當今，尚未有能與他們比肩者。
Much as I'm not a fan of Sinkinson I think he did the best Waltz - more fluid, dynamic, and ahead of its time (i.e. that's how amateurs dance today)
Sinkinson/Barry, Wood/Lewis, Marcus/Karen.
I am just curious, who won this particular completion? I think you might know
@@Женя-й9з4ы andrew was 100% 3rd
Hilton and Wood was “fighting” about 1st place on different comps
@@fedyn4ikTV thank you so much for your kind answer
Anne!
👍❤❤❤
Macus 的修長的身形也加分。男士右腕丶右掌斜托女士的肩胛下半，而非像現在的橫放，架起女士的肩😂😂😂
ジョンウットは、パートナーが最高です😊シンキンソンは、踊りは、云いけどパートナーへの想いやりが足りないような気がします。
😱😍♥️😱😍♥️😱😍♥️🙏🙏🙏🙏
When it was ?
1991
Arunas a katusha, mirko should also be in this video
Though of course epic dancers, but that is another era. They were Youth at that time, if they were dancing in the first place
I don't think so 😁
They would at best been semi-finalists in that era...
