kommenterer artiklen
From Siesta to Fiesta er en kompakt intermediate-dans med 32 counts på to vægge og et tydeligt latin-inspireret udtryk. Den har en livlig og festlig energi, hvor rytmen er i centrum.

Koreografien arbejder med markante accenter og et dynamisk flow, der følger musikkens opbygning. Den kræver præcision og timing, men holder strukturen stram og overskuelig.

Ole Jacobson og Nina K. bringer her deres sans for struktur ind i et mere farverigt musikalsk univers. Deres koreografier er ofte klare og velfungerende, også når stilen bevæger sig uden for det traditionelle countryfelt.

Musikken, From The Siesta To The Fiesta - Olé! Der TexMex-Fiesta-Song, er festlig og rytmisk med tydelige latin- og texmex-elementer. Produktionen er energisk og stemningsskabende.

Nummeret arbejder med humor og tempo, hvilket giver dansen et udadvendt og publikumsmæssigt præg.

From Siesta to Fiesta fremstår som en kompakt og energifyldt intermediate-dans med festlig karakter.
