Wow - a real practice floor AND pre-comp time?  That might just earn it a star on our 'special' comps board...

For sure.  Not so much for latin but with standard if I don't warm-up the first round becomes my warm-up.  The drag is the last 3 competitions had no warm-up area and it shows in my dancing.  For me a warm-up area is very important and that and a good floor are my requirements to make it a good competition.  I don't care about the lighting, signs, decorations or anything else.

The last comp the on-line schedule had the amateur standard competitions scheduled after the pro-am and smooth events at about 9 pm - but then when we got there we were the very first evening heat at 7.30!  Since DP wasn't even in tails at the time the thought of warm-up wasn't even an issue.  Twasn't a good start...
