Competitive Student Profile 1

Bill and Bea Beddor

Bill and Bea have danced for over 20 years. They have been great supporters to the dance community at large in the Twin Cities. They have many attributes, among them being firm believers in physical fitness.

After years of decathlons, skiing, mountain climbing and other rigorous activities, Bea and Bill became serious competitive dancers. Bea had been in the Ice Capades before she married Bill, but Bill didn’t have any dance experience at all, except for social dancing in his 20’s.  But they were very committed and really loved their lessons! In the span of 20 years of dancing, they have won numerous events around the country with their instructors Scott and Amy Anderson and with Champion Ballroom owners, Robert and Jennifer Foster. One of the highlights include winning 1st (Bea) and 3rd (Bill) place Solos at Ohio Star Ball out of 120 entrants. Always with warm smiles, they were crowd favorites!
