And all he wants to do is dance, dance, dance

Bucks President Dr. James
Linksz is retiring from Bucks to
pursue his dream of being on the
popular television show,
“Dancing with the Stars.”
Dancing has always been a
favorite pastime for Linksz. He
has been taking dancing lessons
for years now and he feels that
it’s time to get serious.
“I felt it was time to take my
passion of dancing to a whole different
level,” said Linksz. “Who
knows what dances I’ll end up
doing but I want everyone to
know I’m ready for whatever
they throw at me.”
Linksz has been dancing the
Salsa, Meringue, Foxtrot and
Waltz, and has a little knowledge
of tap dancing and hip-hop.
“I started by taking salsa and
meringue lessons with my wife
about 10 years ago, and from
there it just spiraled into a need to
learn every form of dance and
master them all. The latest form I
am beginning to learn is Modern
dance,” said Linksz
He has competed in many
competitions over the years, and
has even won many of them,
bringing home the trophies to
prove it. Some of them have
gone in his office, as well as the
one from his last competition
where he beat out Cheryl Burke,
one of the professionals on the
TV show.
He stated, “Hopefully she
doesn’t hold anything against me
for beating her in the last competition.
She did seem a little upset
but I’m sure we will
both be professional
about it and take everything
right to the dance floor.”
The rumor is that he is going
to be partnered with Kym
Johnson, but he won’t reveal
the identity of his partner
and assures us that it will
be a show that will go down in
history.
Everyone can look
forward to seeing
Linksz in the
upcoming
season of
” D a n c i n g
with the
Stars.” The
season starts
on April 18 and is
on ABC at 8 p.m.
