NANCY SENNER:
A CHAMPION CINDERELLA

The first class passengers on Northwest Airlines may notice how sophisticated, poised, and professional their flight attendant is, but they probably have no idea that the attentive beauty is a champion in every sense of the word.

Flight Attendant Nancy Senner's life changed forever when she watched the Ohio Star Ball on television. Wishing that she could dance, wear the flowing dresses, and feel like Cinderella, she called a local dance studio and began taking dance lessons. When her original instructor left the studio, she continued taking dance lessons with another instructor - Eddie Ares.

Having won literally thousands of local and
national pro-am dance competitions,
just a few of Nancy's recent titles include:

· U. S. Open Rhythm Champion

· U. S. A2 International Latin Champion

· Ohio Star Ball Open Rhythm Champion

· Ohio Star Ball A2 International Latin Champion

· Ohio Star Ball American Smooth Champion.

Winning the title, Ohio Star Ball American Smooth Champion, was an unexpected surprise for Nancy. The competition for this title included 45 couples competing for the largest scholarship the Ohio Star Ball ever offered. "Eddie has goals for all his students. His goal was for us to be in the top six competitors for this competition. We made the final cut and Eddie said, 'We've reached our goal, so let's just have fun now.' But, we won! Eddie actually dropped to his knees and hugged my knees. We're known for our Latin dancing so I'm really proud to have won this title."

Nancy attributes her achievements to two things: Eddie (who also designs all of her stunning costumes) and hard work. "As a Flight Attendant, I travel to Tokyo, Japan, approximately three times a month. Sometimes, as soon as I get home from Tokyo, I unpack one bag, pack another, and travel to a dance competition with no rest at all." How does Nancy keep her stamina? "When I'm in Tokyo, I work out when others are playing. When I'm in Atlanta, I practice dancing every day and work out every day."

Not surprisingly, Nancy is the "unofficial" head of Team Hotlanta. Team Hotlanta consists of Eddie Ares and all of his students with the approach of "one for all and all for one." The Team has a nationwide reputation as superb dancers who conduct themselves appropriately. Nancy really enjoys answering questions and helping new dance students learn about costumes, makeup, and competitions. The team has been so successful, that now other instructors are asking to join the team.Always willing to help others, Nancy is truly the epitome of a modern day Cinderella. Effervescent, energetic, and enchanting, when this Cinderella and her Prince Charming go to a ball, their chemistry and charisma are spellbinding! Congratulations on all of your well-deserved accomplishments, Nancy.
