1980 Lorna Wighton John Dowding - Olympics FD CANADA

The very attractive Canadian dance champions of the late 70's. They had great edging and a captivating vaudvillian style.

I was later coached by a member of the second place Canadian team, Michael dela Penotiere (with Patricia Fletcher). If anyone can post their performance, I would greatly appreciate it!
