Congratulations and thank you to Patti Brehm, of Twinwood U.S., for her purchase of Estates Spirit Dancer!

Meet 4X Champion, Estates Spirit Dancer. If you are looking to inject elite fineness, incredible density, and proven show-ring dominance into your herd, your search ends here. Spirit Dancer has beautiful fine and dense fiber, and boasted FIVE traits in the Top 25% of EPDs in 2023 and 2024.

He is the son of Snowmass Pure Passion, our outstanding champion producing herdsire with numerous Get of Sire Blue-Ribbons. Passion represents 30 years of passion in breeding for the perfect-colored fleece on the most beautiful-bodied alpaca. Snowmass Alpacas said, “Snowmass Pure Passion is the most magnificent Light Fawn Matrix son Snowmass Alpacas has ever produced.”

Spirit Dancer's dam, Estates Straus Minuet, is an elegant Multi-Blue Ribbon Winning Female out of Snowmass Majesty in Moonlight. Her 2017 daughter, Estates Simtustus Symphony, brought home a Reserve Champion banner and 1st place ribbon at her first show - the 2018 Southern Select Alpaca Show! Spirit Dancer's maternal grandsire is 6x champion, Snowmass Majesty in Moonlight, who has given us multiple champions and blue-ribbon winners. Majesty was the Spinners Dream Champion at the 2014 International Alpaca Odyssey (which is similar to Judge's Choice for the show).

The Judges Agree!
Spirit Dancer was awarded 4 Championship banners and numerous Blue ribbons during his show career. From his very first blue ribbon at the 2020 Carolina Alpaca Celebration to his most recent Color Championship at the 2023 Houston Livestock Show, Spirit Dancer has consistently sat at the top of the line-up under various judges including Arturo Peña and Jill Marcellus. Judge Jill Marcellus raved about his "extraordinary" back fleece, noting that his extreme fineness, crimp, and style carry consistently from his chest to his belly and down his legs.

The "Spirit Dancer look" has officially landed! His first cria, a stunning daughter born in August 2024, is already showing the elite characteristics of her sire. Whether you are breeding for the show ring or the high-end fiber market, Spirit Dancer delivers the "lovely substance of bone" and fleece uniformity that judges crave.
