EurOut Report: Gay Games Portrait: US dancers Heather Brockett and Sunny Williams

Report from Gay Games Cologne by Anna McFaith at EurOut.org.

I admire everyone who plays a sport. I admire everyone who is good at a sport even more.

Now, I believe there are sports everyone can play and, with enough training, be relatively good at. I, however, firmly believe no one will ever be able to teach me how to properly dance. I tried it, stepped on a lot of toes and had to be mostly dragged over the dance floor by my girlfriend. I can laugh at my own faults, but not even I will attempt any form of dancing again.

That said, watching the women’s dance sport competition made me wish my muscles had any memory at all besides basic motor functions. Graceful, passionate and infinitely elegant. It describes all dancers competing in the 18+ finals, but the love vibe only comes from one pair of dancers.

Their names are Heather Brockett and Sunny Williams and we met them at the internet cafe we used to upload all our Gay Games articles during the Gay Games week.
