Scored 4 champions out of 5 dances by RpMerleon students- Sunday 27 November, 2011
|
Viewed:6087 |

A resounding win by the dark horses of DanceThrob/RpMerleon Studios, sweeping up 4 champions plus a 2nd in Beginner Standard competitions. Naoki and Irene surprised many people and especially themselves on 27 Nov 2011, where an international dancesport competition was held.
What shocked many was that they were originally supposed to only take part in Pre-Beginner Standard, but 3 days ago they were told to 'upgrade' to Beginner Standard (the next higher level) for more competitors there. There was no time to adjust routines and they had no choice but to dance purely Pre-Beginner variations that consisted of Pre-Bronze Medallist steps, against others that had flexibility to utilise the full range of Beginner Silver Medallist steps & the advantage of more competitive experiences compared to their single competition 2.5 months ago.
Fortunately their good basic foundation, built over months from drilling at DanceThrob/RpMerleon Studios carried them to victory. Most of the drilling came from their group Standard Technique classes held every Saturday afternoon. There we focused on quality dancing through exercises and fundamentals. |

Tribute To Keith Collins, Our Trainer, Mentor & Dance Father!- Sunday 02 May, 2010

It was with great sadness that we know of your passing away on 11th March 2010. We salute you, we loved you, we adored you, we cried for you and we mourned for you.
For those who did not know who Keith was, he was a very accomplished dancer way before I was born and was already a finalist in the World Professional Ballroom Competitions. He was highly respected all over the world as a dancer and a teacher. And it was Singapore's good fortune that he decided to do much of his dance teaching in Singapore, later on in his dance career.
As I tried to control my tears when our beloved Julie Shen told us the news of your passing, the image that flashed across my mind was of you visited our newly set up dance studio in The Adelphi a couple of years ago. You proudly sat there at the same bench and looked at our brand new studio with pride shinning in your eyes of what your former students managed to achieve. Busy with teaching & adjudicating these few years, your passing compelled me to pick up my writing skills once again in order to give you a tribute from the bottom of my heart. Perhaps that's the only way I know of to deal with my grief.
Local trainers that I learnt from when I first started competing can be easily summed up with my fingers on a single palm, with the last one only 3 months. Keith, you were my first long term World-ranked foreign Professional Dance Coach & the only one in Singapore who taught with your heart, the proper Standard Dance techniques with no withholding of critical knowledge, the first to believe that we can be champions and the only one that taught me how to be an excellent dance coach when I first started giving dance lessons more than a decade ago. I was not kidding when I stressed that my knowledge on dance techniques were all learnt from World-ranked Professionals & you, Keith, was one of them & the first. |
