The wait is over!

First of all, I want to apologize to all the people who have been waiting for the winners announcement for so long but here it is guys!

And I want to say a massive THANK YOU to everyone who participated in my first challenge here on Steemit - original post is HERE.

Since a lot of my Steemit/Discord friends participated in this challenge (special thanks to my Grateful vibes family for the love and support), I thought that it would be a good idea to ask my friend Jadranka to help me chose the winners. She started Zumba in June 2014 and she is one of the most consistent people at Goran's Zumba classes.
She knows all the choreographies, old and new, but she doesn't know anyone here so together, we went through all the videos.

It was SO hard to decide but, at the end, this is the final choice:

1st PLACE - 12 SBD: @joalvarez

@joalvarez had two videos but we really liked her Monster Winer entry and you can check it out HERE. For someone who tried Zumba for the first time, she did an amazing job with the technique and her energy is amazing as well. There is just something so clean and sharp in her moves that we really loved.

2nd PLACE - 8 SBD: @jeraterta

@jeraterta got us with her incredible energy and with her moves, of course. She did Kuduro Booty Shake and you can watch it HERE. These kind of moves and vibes are the ones every Zumba instructor would love to have in their class. I mean, after watching her video, who wouldn't want to try Zumba? :)

3rd PLACE - 5 SBD: @todoenmusica

@todoenmusica is the last person who joined the challenge and I'm so happy he made it on time! Check out his entry for La Mujeres Estan Locas HERE and you will see someone with a natural sense of rhythm, it's just in his blood. He did seem a little bit shy so I hope this will encourage him to post more dancing videos. And this is also a great example for all the guys out there to look up to - especially you @hazem91 :D

Honorable mentions:

@carrieallen - 2 SBD

I didn't know Carrie before she entered Zumba challenge but the moment I saw her video, I was fascinated by her incredible energy and she did Sua Cara choreography so good. I love how she owned it and gave it a unique touch and the moment when dog walks behind her is priceless, we watched that part over and over again. You can watch it HERE.

@leebaong - 2 SBD

Lee is someone who can put a smile on your face anytime and when he said he will join this challenge, I knew it's going to be a special one! :D Again, so much positive energy and great vibes, I couldn't stop smiling. But I have to admit, he got some pretty awesome moves! I hope to see more dance videos from you, Lee!
