✨ Some nights remind you exactly why you dance. ✨
Last night, AM Ballroom was honored to be part of Dance for Kids’ Sake, Big Brothers Big Sisters of El Paso’s incredible fundraiser supporting their mission of connecting young people with caring mentors who believe in them, show up for them, and help them see their potential. ❤️
A HUGE thank you to Rebecca and the entire Big Brothers Big Sisters team for bringing this beautiful event together and giving our community a way to come together through dance for something bigger than ourselves.
And our dancers? They SHOWED UP! 🔥
One of our couples performed a Cha-Cha/Samba fusion and earned the second-highest score of the entire night—competing alongside an incredible group of dancers! The only couple ahead of them received four perfect 10s! 👏🏼
But the score wasn’t the best part.
The best part was watching people step outside their comfort zones, become teammates, raise money for a cause, and cheer each other on.
I also want to celebrate Lamar and Sabrina for putting their hearts behind causes that empower and support children in our community. Through Lamar’s Pass the Dream Foundation, he is working to empower young people to believe in themselves, chase their dreams, and see that there is more possible for their lives. And through Sabrina’s Terry’s Heart Foundation, she is helping children who have experienced difficult circumstances find support, care, and a chance to thrive. ❤️
Different people. Different stories. Different causes.
One community.
And I couldn’t be more proud of our AM Ballroom team.
These have been challenging times, but this team continues to remind me what resilience, teamwork, and heart look like. We pick each other up. We encourage each other. We keep showing up.
That’s what I want us to represent:
Not perfection. Purpose.
Not division. Unity.
Not tearing people down. Lifting people up.
Thank you, El Paso, for reminding us what happens when we come together.
Sometimes a dance becomes a performance.
A performance becomes a fundraiser.
And a fundraiser becomes an opportunity to change a life.
❤️ This is why we dance.
