The following is a compilation of linedance

know of any other awards which are not included below and are
reasonably recent, let me know the results and I'll add 'em

Unlike
the various Tamworth choreography competitions (see above for results),
the winners of the Crystal Boots Awards are voted by readers of
the British line dancing magazine, LDUK. As such the results
reflect
what is actually popular on the dance floors (in this case across the
United
Kingdom), rather than the opinions of a small panel of judges. Of
course,
the Crystal Boots winners were determined by those who actually
voted, but hey, no system is perfect. *grynne*
Like
any dancer, I rarely agree with 'official' dance of the year
awards. So following are the dances I think should have won - the 8th
annual
"Dancing Dragon Linedance Awards" (sorry,
no prizes) for my pick of the dances from 2009. These results are
guaranteed 100% biased. *grynne*
* The dance
that has consistently been the biggest floor filler throughout the year
at all the venues I have playlists from.
** Choreographer who has produced the largest body of impressive dances
during the year.
4th
Annual
Dancers Choice Awards 2009
These
awards are voted on internationally and the results announced at the
"Vegas Dance Explosion" 14-18th November, 2009. Event Directors are Doug & Jackie Miranda *Notes induction into the
Dancers Choice Awards' Hall Of Fame
