Mark Ballas & Tanisha Belnap

Mark and Tanisha - Cha-Cha/Hip-Hop



Mark posted this video. :) Great dancing! Tanisha is always fun to watch. Mark seems to have taken her under his wing. His favorite student. :D  Apparently this took place after a day of auditions, but I don't know what the auditions were for.  Perhaps the Cinderella gig?

Mark posted a YouTube version too (same video, just diff format). I'll post it too:

Round-up post :)

It's about that time for a little spring cleaning post. Here are the links & info posted on the twitter feed that haven't made it to the blog yet:

The Mint & The Vibe

Next week, we will get another double-dose of Marky goodness! :) On Monday night, Mark is again performing at The Mint, but this week's show promises to be an exciting one. He's playing with a full band and many of his DWTS buddies will be in attendance. If you're in the Los Angeles area, be sure to check it out! Get your tickets online here: http://www.themintla.com/show/detail/28086 Mark goes on at 8:30pm.

Mark posted a picture of the stage/instruments at one of the band practices for Monday's performance:

Also, on Tuesday on the DWTS result show, Mark has choreographed a team of young dancers from The Vibe in Utah. I've seen these kids dance before and they are pretty talented! Included in the team is Tanisha Belnap, who also danced in Mark's music video for the song "All For Nothing". :)

Mark posted a picture of him and Tanisha and another picture of the whole dance team:
