America's Ballroom Challenge 2008 on PBS
AMERICAS BALLROOM CHALLENGE returns for a third season with five one-hour episodes. Shot in high definition at the worlds largest ballroom dancing competition, the OHIO STAR BALL in Columbus, Ohio, AMERICAS BALLROOM CHALLENGE airs Wednesdays, January 30-February 27, 2008, 8:00-9:00 p.m. ET on PBS.
Hosted by actress and dancer Jasmine Guy and seven-time U.S. National Latin Dance Champion Ron Montez, AMERICAS BALLROOM CHALLENGE once again takes viewers onto the dance floor and behind the scenes as 24 world-class couples compete for the ultimate dance title. Each of the first four programs will focus on one of the four major styles of competitive ballroom dancing: American Smooth, American Rhythm, International Standard and International Latin. The six finalists in each style will first compete as a group, performing the five standard dances in the category, with expert judges scoring their performances. Then the dancers will have an opportunity to shine, performing a show dance solo. Each program will end with the crowning of one couple, named champions in that style.
In the fifth and final program, the four champions will compete across dance styles for the coveted title, with each couple performing two pull-out-all-the-stops solos.
Only one couple will be named AMERICA'S BEST.
