🔥 Emerald Ball — This Wasn’t Just Good… This Was STATEMENT-Level 🔥 Huge congratulations to Maritza and Aarin for an unforgettable showing at the Emerald Ball! ✨ Maritza competed in Pro/Am with her instructor Guillermo and danced at an elite level — earning all 2nd place finishes. But here’s the real story: she TIED for 1st place in her category and lost it on a tie-break rule. That’s not second place—that’s someone right on the edge of the top, and rising fast. 🏆 Aarin stole the show. Competing in Pro/Am with his instructor Deborah, he didn’t just win — he swept every category with ALL 1st place finishes and took home the Championship title. Clear. Clean. Dominant. ❤️ Even better — his parents were there to see it live, cheering him on every step of the way. 💥 And yes — these two didn’t stop there. Aarin and Maritza also competed together in Am/Am, taking all first places showing what real partnership looks like on the floor. 🙌 Huge thank you to everyone who came out to support — the cheering, the energy, and those hilarious fat head signs 😂 You made this unforgettable. 👏 And a special thank you to Wayne and Donna Eng for putting on such an incredible competition. #byyoursidedancestudio #emeraldball
