Sept. 15, 2007 - Malashock Thinks You Can Dance
A celebrity ballroom dance competition - Sept. 15, 2007 - supporting the education and outreach programs of the new Malashock Dance School.
Hosted by Mary Murphy of Fox So You Think You Can Dance.
Laura Cain with Philip Gott
Laura Cain is known for being on the Jeff and Jer Showgram, a weekday morning radio show on Star 94.1. Laura has held her own and has received much praise and respect from her radio peers, having been with Jeff and Jer since 1992! Laura is an SDSU graduate majoring in Communications, and has 2 children, Charlie and Evan. Both Laura's siblings and both her kids all have red hair, so Laura's blonde hair comes from Paul Mitchel®. She's a HUGE FAN of Dancing with the Stars and So You Think You Can Dance, so she jumped at the opportunity to strut her stuff in this compeitition.
Philip Gott is Champion Ballroom Academy's longest staff member. His humble dance beginnings began as a student here, where he won many competition titles, indluding the national Pro-Am standard ballroom championships. After turning professional, most of his dance career has been spent training and dancing with his students and competing in the International Latin division, where he most recently won the 2006 Holiday Dance Classic Rising Star, held in Las Vegas.
