34 couples have travelled to the Latvian capital Riga to contest the world title in DanceSport's decathlon. The 2014 World Ten Dance determines the successors to Bjoern Bitsch and Ashli Williamson, DEN, the couple that has dominated the discipline over the past three years but that focuses exclusively on Standard now.
Last year in Vienna, AUT, Bjoern and Ashli prevailed only very narrowly over the runners-up Miha Vodičar – Nadiya Bychkova, SLO, after Rule 11 was invoked. Earlier this year - at the European Ten Dance in Cambrils, ESP - the Slovenians were edged out by Jaak Vainomaa – Taina Savikurki, FIN, in a tight fight for first.
This World Ten Dance is the first one adjudicated with the Judging System 2.1. Rule 11 should no longer be needed to determine the champions.
The 150-minute programme is available from 21 November 2014 here!
2014 WDSF PD World Standard
Defending Professional Division World Champions Mirko Gozzoli and Edita Daniute enter this year's championship with the clear intent to pick up from where they left off in Bassano del Grappa in 2013 - and to bring their successful active career to its appropriate conclusion.
The Professional Division World Championship could bring the three contenders for the 2014 title to the floor for a final face-off. Benedetto Ferrugia and Claudia Koehler as well as Emanuel Valeri and Tania Kehlet stand poised to take over from the Lithuanians ... And why wait until next year?
The 90-minute programme will be available from 28 November.
All programmes at US$ 2.95 for a 30-day rental! Check out the others available through DanceSport Total Plus!
