Garry and Rita Gekhman, U.S. Classic Showdance Champions (also 2nd in World Showdance); exhibition by request at Ohio Star Ball 2006 = America’s Ballroom Challenge 2007: “Silver” Dance (for the record: Garry and Rita NEVER claimed to be doing “The Robot”, or even being robots. They just call this their Silver dance. Interpretation is up to the viewer).

we came up with this idea back in 2005. our dance was also featured on good morning america: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F2NOXFdi7Z4 (song names: johann strauss/blue danube; afrika bambaataa/looking for the perfect beat.) we don’t know how to waltz. we don’t know how to poplock. but we do know how to have fun. we came up with the choreography ourselves. married: july 3, 2005 in oakland, california. please do not ask me for the mix, i no longer have it. wedding video filmed by www.iphilms.net by phillip velasco

*Sorry, we don’t have a copy of the music* This is the first dance we did at our wedding July 28, 2007. We just created our own version of the very popular evolution of dance, borrowing some of his ideas and mixing in a few of our own…thanks for watching, and yes, we’re still happily married!
