Fred Astaire would like to congratulate Morgan Jaunzemis from the Buffalo, NY studio, who recently became the 2008 Young Adult World American Smooth Champion and was runner up in the Young Adult American Rhythm Championships when she competed at the Ohio Star Ball. She is also the current Fred Astaire National Champion in Junior American Rhythm and Smooth as well as the 2008 USDC Junior Champion in American Rhythm and Smooth. But her dancing career didn’t start with ballroom. She has been competing in many areas of dance since she was 6 years old.
Dancing has always been a huge part of Morgan’s life; in fact, she loves it so much that her parents even turned one of the rooms in their house into a dance studio! Her first steps on a dance floor were when she was two, and she has been competing in jazz, tap, ballet, lyrical and modern for 10 years. Morgan came to Fred Astaire Dance Studio a little over a year ago, and as soon as she began, she fell in love with ballroom dancing. Morgan immediately knew that this was what she wanted to concentrate on and she and her parents have decided to make ballroom dancing the only genre of dancing that she is enrolled in.
Currently Morgan is a junior in High School, and keeps herself busy with her studies, and dancing. She is looking is beginning to plan her competition schedule for 2009, and we look forward to seeing continued success from this hard working, and focused young lady. Congratulations again to Morgan.
