Laureen Baldovi won eight US Open titles with Robert Royston. Then she stepped away from competitive WCS for nearly two decades — injury, life changes, the distance that accumulates between a person and something they used to be. When she came back to compete again in 2010, the room watched with the specific attention that only comes from watching someone return to something they had once been the best in the world at. 🥲 #WestCoastSwing #LaureenBaldovi #RobertRoyston #SwingDance #ReturnStory

Robert Royston was a principal dancer in the Broadway production of "Swing!" — a show that ran for 461 performances from 1999 to 2001. He performed his own choreography. It was Broadway. The WCS community, by multiple accounts, largely found out about it through a casual mention in a teaching context rather than from any announcement. He had not told most people he was doing it. #WestCoastSwing #RobertRoyston #Broadway #Swing #SwingDance

Every week, Robert Royston teaches a beginner group class. Every week, he says the exact same sentence to explain what dancing is. He has been saying it for 32 years. Most beginners nod and don't understand it yet. The ones who eventually become champions all say the same thing: the sentence didn't make sense until years later — and then suddenly it made sense about everything. 🤯 #WestCoastSwing #RobertRoyston #SwingDance #DancePhilosophy #Teaching

1999–2001: Robert Royston is a principal dancer in "Swing!" on Broadway, performing 461 shows. During the same period, he is competing and winning at the championship level of West Coast Swing. He didn't tell his Broadway castmates he was a multiple US Open champion. He didn't announce the Broadway show to the WCS community. Both worlds ran in parallel. Neither knew about the other until later. #WestCoastSwing #RobertRoyston #Broadway #SwingDance #DoubleLIfe

1995. The US Open Classic Division. Robert Royston & Laureen Baldovi. This performance has been broken down in WCS workshops more times than any other single routine in the history of the dance form. 30 years later, instructors are still finding things in it. Watch it once and you'll see why. Watch it twice and you'll see something you missed the first time. 🎬 #WestCoastSwing #RobertRoyston #LaureenBaldovi #USOpen1995 #SwingDance
