And then, you've got Cuban motion dances.
:36:05
If they're able to use Cuban motion.
:36:08
They get better points, of course,
if they are standing nice and tall.

:36:13
How do you deal now with the teams...
:36:17
who do not make it to the semifinal?
:36:19
I think one way of doing it is...
:36:21
make a big deal at the school afterwards...
:36:23
that, "Oh, this team has been successful.
:36:25
"They've achieved the bronze level
and that they've gotten that far. "

:36:28
I also know for a fact that
it is part of learning for life...

:36:32
preparing yourself for life.
It's not bad not to make it.

:36:35
You know, you can say whatever you like.
:36:36
You either win or you lose.
:36:38
Okay, and if you haven't got number one...
:36:40
then you have not won, you have not lost.
I mean, you've not won, you've lost.

:36:44
No matter how much you want to quit...
Sorry?

:36:46
Second place is the first loser.
:36:48
And he knows from experience.
:36:53
Let's do tango, please.
:37:04
Forte now.
:37:11
Promenade, please.
:37:24
There's something special
about seeing a man dancing...

:37:28
and teaching dance in that environment.
:37:30
And it brings the boys along.
:37:33
Yeah, because you don't really have,
nowadays, we don't have...

:37:37
like a Fred Astaire or a Gene Kelly
necessarily as a role model.

:37:40
That's from a former generation.
:37:41
And they see us very much
as like a father figure...

:37:43
or maybe an older-brother figure.
:37:45
And so, I think it's important
especially for some of the guys...

:37:48
to have that kind of validation
from an older male figure...

:37:51
in a competitive venue, because if you're
cheering them on, you're rooting them on...

:37:55
maybe they don't have
that kind of encouragement at home.
