hi everyone, i'm new to this forum. i am 27yo gay male living in new zealand. i have been done latin and ballroom dancing back in high-school but am currently very much involved with ceroc (www.ceroc.com). i have recently entered this year's national championships and won best showcase, came 3rd in advanced free-style and 2nd in battle of the sexes. in new zealand, we have a special category in the champs for same sex couple ceroc dancing. unfortunately most of the couples who entered this category this year were not gay at all (apart from myself); even my male dance partner had a girlfriend. i heard about the gay games in sydney and saw clippings of the dancesport segment from tv. wish i had heard about it earlier as i would have loved to be there to see it. i was wondering if anyone knows of anywhere i can get my hands on a copy of it (or even of any same sex dance champs - i am aware of the blue danube cup in vienna). thanks ian

how are you? i am living in toronto and would be fine to compete at same sex competition in champ level
