The Babes just finished performing at the Fremont Solstice Parade and at Seattle Pride Fest. We are super excited to announce that our latest dance "Bad Girl" to Miranda Lambert & Carrie Underwood's song has gone viral on Youtube!! As of right now it has over 12,000 views! Have you seen it? Be'Tina is the Babe in yellow!
Without further ado, allow me to introduce Miss Be'Tina aka. Flashdance!
I call her Bopsie Bee, because she bops all over that dance floor! You can't keep your eyes off her! She makes everyone stand up and take notice, and you can see the joy bursting out of her heart through her smile when she's on that dance floor. You know this girl loves every stomp she makes with her cowboy boots!

2) What’s your favorite song to belt out in the car?

boys, but the one that gets me to crack the window even in
the rain is "I don't wanna miss a thing." -aerosmith!!

Eating of course ... No but really I love to bartend! There's
something about the adrenaline and fast pace environment

Carrie Underwood ... ever since American Idol and my $113
phone bill for voting so many times! Ooops! Sorry Mom!

Dishes! They absolutely repulse me! I'd rather scrub a floor
with a tooth brush for hours. Ick!
6) What’s your favorite holiday and why?
I love winter and Christmas is probably really high up
there.... But there's something about beer and and fireworks!
I absolutely love the 4th of July. Maybe there is a little pyro
in me! ;) ..shhhh!
7) Give us advice or motto that you live by.

HAHA... They would probably tell you I'm independent,

HA HA, but more of the Neopolian Dynamite kind of hilarity.

Other than the fabulous Carrie.. Def Leppard and Poision did
a show together! #amazing
15) You have the tattoo “Let Us Dance” on your shoulder.
What does that mean to you?
This kinda hits home for me! I got to know Jamie, another
Babe on the team in 2008, and we hit it off great. Lacey who
is another Babe and I grew up together. We were destined to
be best friends after finally meeting in junior high.
Over the year relationships fade or unexpected things happen
and you don't stay close.
Needless to say Lacey wasn't in my life really when I got close
to Jamie, and Jamie wasn't in my life when I knew Lacey. I
ended up loosing touch with both of them, and I went down
my own path of becoming an adult.
One Friday Lacey contacts me and says I wan't to take you to a
country bar. I was NOT into country music!
BUT, I went and had a blast!
Learning new line dances and trying to get out there every
chance I could was so much fun, and so this became a regular
Friday thing with me and Lacey. It truly helped reconnect our
childhood friendship.
One Friday I saw Jamie there too! We had not talked in a
while, and I'm not even sure if were were "friendly" at the
time. So it was kinda weird seeing Jamie. We didn't say
hello to each other, so it was really awkward.
A few weeks go by, and Lacey is busy on Friday. I'm
devastated we were going to miss a week of dancing with
DeAnna Lee. Just then I got a message from Jamie asking
if I was going dancing that night! I immediately let her know
that I would go if she wanted to go!
That night we made a fresh start of our friendship! From
there the past was the past, and me, Jamie, and Lacey became
the 3 Muskateers dancing every week! We would practice
new dances in our free time going to different country bars
to learn. We were soaking up everything we could about
dance! We were all hooked!
Dancing has pulled me through the hard times! I was at a low
point in my life before dance snatched me up and has now
taken me to incredible places.
Dance became my drug you can say. The tattoo that my 2 best
friends and I have says "Let us Dance" inside the infinity
symbol.
Dancing brought us together again, and no matter where life
takes us or who we grow up to be or where we end up in the
world, I never will forget these past 2 years of my life with
these girls. No matter if we live next door, the next room, or
countries apart dancing will always will make me think about
these girls and remind me of my passion for it. TO INFINITY
AND BEYOND!!
That's our sweet Be'Tina! Reading that brought a tear to my
eye. Dance is THAT powerful! It can bridge any gap, mend
wounds, and make you feel on top of the world! I'm so glad
dance has done this for you Be'Tina! We love our Boot Boogie
Babe Bee!
