   The Gulf Regionals will be held at Whirl & Twirl Dance Club in beautiful Orlando, Florida. The venue features a large floated wood floor (the best in town!) that is simply awesome to dance on. It has multiple A/C units to keep you cool in Florida's warm August weather. ...and to top it off, there is a balcony for spectators to watch all the action on the dance floor.
