So, when looking into plane tickets for this year I am finding that they are twice what we paid last year. So, we are considering taking a bus. Has anyone...
... a ... Have you tried AirTran Airways?? We are in Michigan and they were the cheapest - $207.00 Round Trip including taxes & pre-seating....good luck!...
We have the same issue. I attempted to do a group flight with Southwest Airlines as usual. This year would have been almost DOUBLE. The cheapest I found was...
You might want to try flying into Sanford FL. It's a smaller airport but maybe if enough teams use it, UDA might even set up bus service. It is a straight...
Hey great idea about flying into Sanford on Allegiant Air -- just looking at where they get flights from -- it seems even more convenient for a lot of dance...
Just FYI...two days before the stock market crashed...round trip tickets from California were approximately $375.00. The day after flights were up to $900.00....
National Talent Search offers Singers, Emcees, Music Groups, SpokesModels, Bands, Comedians, Choirs, Steppers and Dance Crews the chance to compete for prizes,...
OK, I am taking a break from obsessing about the global financial crisis to belatedly post the UDA "preseason" polls which I have now dubbed the October polls....
Ten voters including representatives from California, Arizona, Colorado, Tennessee (2), Louisiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Florida and me (so that is two from...

I have a sneaky suspicion that Teurlings Catholic will dominate small hip hop this year. Just my guess... :) I'm surprised that someone placed Coral Reef as...
Seems like a little lack of respect for St. Thomas More in the jazz division... But I suspect they will prove everyone wrong at nationals this year. Again,...
Floyd Central... duh... Should easily win again. Eden Prairie... a solid #2 in large pom. I'm not so sure why Rosary is ahead of STM in small pom though. Like...
I think most people considered Rosary to be a Large team. Most ballots were Floyd, Rosary and Eden Prairie as 1-2-3 and then Los Al, Crown Point and STM...
Honestly, this poll really broke down to Coral Reef and Westmoore at the top and then the next seven teams swirling around from 3rd to 9th place depending on...
I think all three of those teams are good... But my point was there are several good teams. I dont think that any of those are assured a top 20 spot at this...
I am not referring to Don Bosco Prep--but, expect some major surprises this year. There are four teams that I am aware of, through sources that are reliable,...
I always find the polls somewhat amusing... While many of us have seen some of these teams in person so far this year, my observation is that nationals is...
I agree with a lot of what you said -- especially about the way placements will fall at smaller competitions. However, that is sort of why I do the polls --...
A poll that ranks my team in 8th in any division is a blessing to me. That "rank" will motivate my girls far more than anything that could come out of my...
Of course these polls are nothing more than educated (or somewhat educated) guesses at this point, but I think being "ranked" a preseason 8th in a division in...
I agree. Not having any relative experience in the hip hop division at nationals does not really warrant a top 3 placement at this point. However, if there...
don't forget some of these girls dance on all-star teams for hip-hop and some of them have done very well...not the same but there is some experience -- In...
I think FC is going to rock it out! Their fire, energy, precision and athleticism is going to be a key factor. I think it will be tough only cause Westmoore...
it will be small but I would love feedback from anyone who attends. here is a tentative schedule. All Star Junior Jazz PomZ Intensity Dance 11:55 AM All Star...
In trying to predict what FC might be bringing to nationals, I wonder if some voters are trying to compare the usual Planet Dance UDA nationals hip hop...
large jazz is usually my favorite division to see at nationals. I think Floyd will kill it in Orlando. But like everyone else, I'm anxious to see how they...
