Some people were born for the Stage - Latin Dance World Champion Riccardo Cocchi and Yulia Zagoruychenko


2-11-12, It was a very special day of my life.  I was invited by Connie Kwan-Wong to represent CIN to attend her charity event: 1st Annual Ballroom Dance Extravaganza - Featuring Lain Dance World Champion Riccardo Cocchi and Yulia Zagoruychenko!

I was very nervous during the interview, but the World Champion are super NICE!!  They are very down to earth and humorous.  They made the entire interview very smooth!  Later that night, they have performed 5 different style of dances - rumba, jazz, ballroom and etc!  I was so AMAZED by their performance!  I truly believe that some people were really born for the stage!  Their dance was POWERFUL, ENERGITIC, and INFLUENTIAL.  You will feel the energy and passion of both dancers!!!!  I could not use words to describe my feelings!  I can tell you that it was INCREDIBLE!!!!
This charity event was the first fund raising event hosted by Connie Kwan-Wong Charity Foundation  benefiting the Children's Defense Fund.  I've known Connie for years and she always has been a very positive, energitic, and kind-hearted person.  Working as a cardio sonogram specialist, Connie always has a heart for children.  She and her best friend, Mandy Kao, has been supporting lots of charity events assisting local children charities.  They are my role models as young Asian professional women.  I think we should all learn from these two ladies - determined, confident, and kind-hearted!
