Shirley Ballas has enjoyed a spectacular dance career spanning more than 40 years - she has Cha-Cha'd her way across the world's dance floors to become a multi-award-winning Latin and Ballroom champion, and one of the most renowned dancers in the world. In 1996, Shirley retired from competitive dancing to become a highly acclaimed coach and teacher. Speaking from the heart, Shirley leaves her dancing shoes at the door to tell you the story of a fiery, strong-willed grafter, who danced through everything life threw at her and was never afraid to leave it all on the floor. 600 10 $a Ballas, Shirley. 630 00 $a Strictly come dancing (Television program) 650 0 $a Women dancers $z Great Britain $v Biography. 650 0 $a Ballroom dancers $z Great Britain $v Biography. 650 0 $a Women television personalities $z Great Britain $v Biography. 650 0 $a Ballroom dancing $v Anecdotes. 650 0 $a Reality television programs $z Great Britain $v Anecdotes. 655 7 $a Autobiographies. $2 lcgft $9 802326 941 $a 1 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20220909063146.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=6B08DECE300611EDA406B4E81FECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b KAYInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
