Manhattan Amature Classic (MAC) is an annual ballroom dance competition held in (you guessed it) Manhattan. This year is the 15th anniversary of this competition. It was held at Lerner Hall at Columbia University. It is a three-day event. I went to the first two - on Friday and Saturday.

    Hi, Raphael. Thanks for putting up these amazing videos, as usual. May I ask, who's that young couple that danced all those spectacular American Rhythm routines?

    Hey Raphael,
    I was wondering: what is the song that is used in the youth prechamp and champ Rumba? And who sings it?

    Thanks

      Hi Johanna. Sorry but I don't know the names of the songs played at the MAC.
