Yes, fair enough - the AS was especially good and was uptempo, although I remember that dance being more about Vincent than about Rachel. But I wasn't personally impressed by her jive, salsa or samba. So maybe my qualm is about the uptempo Latin dances only. However, my feeling remains that apart from in the 'romantic' dances she struggles to be anything more than competent.
