Arthur Murray Chevy Chase – Rumba Professional Show

Chantilly, Virginia

Today’s post features photos from a Rumba pro show by the Arthur Murray Chevy Chase studio. Overall this studio consistently has a professional couple perform at the end of these events. It shows that they are supporting each other by helping and observing their practices. Above all, their shows are entertaining for the audiences. This show in particular incorporated steps that are taught in the studios to the students making it accessible and relatable to the audience.

The skill in performing these figures is what separates it from our practice steps! Their swivels, keeping their feet position correct – these subtleties are what makes this a show that you would review as you aspire to improve your dancing. Additionally, I hope to keep such a strong core body position in dancing Rumba. Many of the figures have such similar components that it makes it difficult to lead in a way that the lady can follow easily. In this performance, these two were both strong in keeping their position making for some especially nice lines in the photos.

This weekend we are preparing to take our photography on the road. We are going to make another collection of dance photos, so going through our last event is helping me get into the dance frame-of-mind. I am hoping that we can setup the lighting in similar positions given that I liked the results. The balance between the front and backlighting for these was perfect for the floor this size. Concurrently, the back lighting was not too strong to flare in the camera, and the front lighting was even across the floor. It allowed me to just concentrate on following the dancers, and made the post processing very fast.
