I second that! The Challenge was quite fun. It demonstrated just how
talented both the "Westies" and the "Lindyans" are, not only in their
respective dances, but in other styles of dance as well. The Lindy
dancers came out with a "spontaneous" team routine, and showed us what
dancing to really fast music is all about. The WCS dancers showed us
that they too could do lifts and aerials. Then they mixed it up and
everyone partnered up with someone from the other team. Kyle & Libbat
and Kevin & Carla also put on great shows as the champion couples for
each dance. There were moments when I was laughing so hard, I could
barely watch.

If you weren't there, don't miss it on the video!
