Here is more from the competitive career of Negrita Jayde:Originally Posted by MuSuLPhReAk
1983 Ms. Venice Beach 2nd (had been training only three months)
1983 Western States Mixed Pairs 2nd (with partner Lou Perrotta)
1985 Toronto Championships 2nd MW
1986 Eastern Canadians 2nd HW
1986 Ontario Provincials 1st
1987 World Women's Amateur Invitational 2nd HW (the event was held in Tokyo and she finished behind Tonya Knight).
One of my favorite quotes from Negrita was about her thoughts on posing:
" I make the audience into one person so the whole experience becomes very intimate....I think the bottom line is people want to be moved....I've seen people shuffle in their seats when I pose, so I know I've gotten to them. It's a very empowering feeling."
