World Championship Juniors and Seniors
World Championship Junior 2 Standard took place on Saturday in Sibiu, Romania. The winners, Yaroslav Kiselev and Sofia Philipchuk from Russia continued their amazingly successful autumn.
They won World Championship Junior 2 Latin in Bilbao in October, WDSF Open Junior 2 Standard in Russian Open DanceSport Championships just a week ago, and now they finalized their hat trick within a month by securing the World Championship title in Junior 2 Standard, and doing it by winning all five dances. We'd better keep an eye on this young couple, who knows what the future might bring for them!
