Dear Competitors and Spectators:
We welcome the ballroom dancers of the Midwest and around the Country
to the eighth annual Kansas City Dance Classic (KCDC) amateur ballroom
dance competition. We hope that your experience here will motivate you to
enter other USA Dance competitions. Please provide us with your thoughts
and recommendations for any improvements that can be made in our
procedures and program of events. Thank you so much for dancing and
competing at KCDC.
The idea for Kansas City Dance Classic came to us after many years of social
ballroom dancing in the KC area and then discovering the world of amateur
ballroom competitions sponsored by USA Dance. We really enjoy these USA
Dance amateur competitions and believe in the format and idea of them.
A year before we started KCDC we realized none of them are held within
500 miles of Kansas City. We decided that should change. With the help of
many mentors in the competition world including several other USA Dance
competition organizers and several local Pros/Instructors we were able to
organize Kansas City Dance Classic.
KCDC began as a USA Dance “Registered” event but starting this year we’ve
met our goal of becoming a USA Dance “National Qualifying Event”. USA
Dance sponsors a number of competitions around the country that you
should consider dancing in as well. Ads for many of these competitions are
in the back of this program.
We want to thank the many KCDC volunteers for their valuable help
ensuring the success of the event. We also wish to thank the area dance
studios and their teachers who have supported and promoted KCDC.
To our spectators, please be sure to cheer on the dancers who are
competing during the day. They’ve worked hard preparing for this event
and deserve your support.
Best Wishes and Keep Dancing,
Matt and Ellen Pansing
