WDSF Athletes' Commission
The WDSF Athletes' Commission (AC) is a permanent commission of the WDSF Presidium that consists of athletes who are elected solely by other WDSF athletes. The AC represents the interest of the athletes, advises the Presidium on matters that are relevant to the athletes, and works to improve the communication between the Presidium and the athletes.
The 4-year term of our current Americas, Asian and Oceanic representatives, Ms Rikako Ota, Mr Antonio Micheli and Mr Anton Belyayev, respectively from the aforementioned regions, has concluded. Therefore, all athletes dancing and having their residence in the region Americas, Asia or Oceanic may now volunteer or be nominated as candidates for that region.
