A pair of Latin dancers from Hong Kong Baptist University (HKBU) came second in each of the three categories they entered at the fourth Hong Kong Interschool Dancesport Championships held in January.
Yu Dick-kwan and Holly Yau Sin-ting, who took part in the cha cha cha, rumba and jive, said they were excited about the results.
'We are thrilled. However, we were both out of breath after our dance,' Yau, 20, recalled.
The girls performed their three dance routines - cha cha cha, followed by the rumba and jive - non-stop in front of the judges.
Yau played the female role, while Yu acted as her male partner.
'There were more than 40 parts within the one-minute jive dance. Our bodies had to move swiftly to go along with the music,' said Yau, a Year Two humanities student.
