Hank Jones and Sara Oberrecht
With over 22 years of ballroom dance
experience between them, Hank and Sara have trained primarily under Suzanne
Gelinas, a former Canadian National Champion, and Esther Rehm, recipient of
multiple top teacher awards. Hank and Sara have danced and taught both
International and American styles of dance.
In the past, Hank and Sara traveled to many locations throughout the Midwest and eastern U.S., Canada, and even to England to compete and train in ballroom dancing. Competing extensively for a few years, Hank and Sara received many awards, both together and with other partners. Of particular note, Hank and Sara won the 19-Dance Championship of the 1999 DC Dancesport Inferno, and Hank won the Pro/Am Open International Latin Championship at the 1999 La Classique in Montreal with Suzanne. More recently, Hank trained to become a professional contemporary dancer and performed with first Nadeen O’Connor Dance Theatre, then Dancing Wheels. For fun, Hank and Sara have also taken classes in other dance forms, including jazz, hip hop, and ballet. In many ways, ballroom dancing has been a source of joy in Sara and Hank’s lives, especially because social dancing brought them together. They teach ballroom now in the hope that they can share their love for it with others who might find their lives transformed by it as they have.
