Anyone can make it if they know how to shake it.

Mad Hot Ballroom is about the students of several New York City elementary schools who are learning how to ballroom dance. After they learn, they then compete in a city wide dance competition. There are bronze, silver and gold levels during each level of the competition. Only the gold levels advance from the quarter finals to the semis to eventually the finals. In the finals, the gold level teams via for the city trophy. The kids learn five dances: the merengue, the rumba, the tango, the foxtrot and swing. It is fun to watch these kid change and come into themselves. If you get a chance check it out. It was worth it!
