Briner/Egli are CSIT world champions
The «tireless» standard couple Jürg Briner/Katharina Egli from Dance Unlimited Zurich (DUZ) fulfilled a great dream at the CSIT World Championships in San Marino; they became world champions for the first time in the Senior IV category. Congratulations on this marvellous achievement! The previous year's runners-up, who had narrowly failed to win, had already been in top form all season and
Corrodi/Kucharczyk - 33rd place at World Championship Standard
Davide Corrodi/Maja Kucharczyk have advanced to the third round at the Standard World Championships in Sibiu, Romania, ultimately finishing 33rd out of 71 couples. Placings in the top half of the rankings are now „normality” for the couple from Turniertanzsportclub Zug (TSCZ). A fortnight ago, they finished 36th out of 81 couples in Brno/TCH.
World Championship silver for Switzerland
Switzerland wins the silver medal at the Senior I Standard World Championships in Plata d'Aro, Spain; this great success was achieved by Andrea Bencivenga/Anna Drukarova, who have been licenced with Tanzsportclub Zug (TSCZ) since June 2025. The final was dominated by the Italians Stefano and Tatjana Manni, who were easily proclaimed world champions. But just as clearly - with five
Schmitt/Salkhova Latin World Champions for the first time
The French pairing of Charles-Guillaume Schmitt/Elena Salikhova have secured the Latin World Championship title for the first time in Brno, Czech Republic. They had previously won three silver medals behind the Germans Balan/Moshenka, who have since switched to the professional ranks. The places of honour this time went to Guillem Pascual/Diandra-Aniela Illes (Spain) and Yan Bangbang/Du Yujun (China). The STSV was represented by two couples who achieved very impressive
European Championship 10-Dance: Davide/Maja in the final!
Erstmals seit vielen, vielen Jahren ist es einem Schweizer-Paar gelungen das Final der Europameisterschaft 10-Tanz zu erreichen. Davide Corrodi/Maja Kucharczyk zeigten eine grossartige Leistung und erreichten in Rom den hervorragenden 4. Platz. Bereits nach den Schweizermeisterschaften Latein vor zwei Wochen war klar, Davide & Maja sind nach ihrer längeren verletzungs- und ausbildungsbedingten Pause wieder in
Gold medal for Briner/Egli
And suddenly the Swiss national anthem rang out... Where was that? The CSIT World Sport Games were held in Loutraki, Greece, from 3 to 7 June with around 4500 athletes from 28 different sports. For the first time, seniors were also able to dance for medals, including in dance sport. In the Standard Over65 (Sen IV) category, Katharina
Briner/Egli are CSIT Vice World Champions
The DUZ dance couple Jürg Briner/Katharina Egli won the silver medal at the CSIT World Championships Standard Seniors IV in Schladming. Having won the last three tournaments, they were among the favourites. They lived up to this role from the start of the tournament and impressed with a very good performance in the first four rounds. It was only in the final that they had to
Corrodi/Kucharczyk eleventh in the ten-dance World Championships
Once again, their dreams of reaching the final at the World Ten Dance Championships unfortunately remained unfulfilled - the Swiss dance couple Davide Corrodi/Maja Kucharczyk finished in 11th place in the Armenian capital Yerevan and were thus relatively far away from the top 6 place they were aiming for. This hope was fuelled in particular by a 7th place in the previous year, when the up-and-coming TSCZ pairing finished only a wafer-thin second.
Students dance away all resistance
Passion is a quality that creates suffering. A phrase that could not be more fitting for 18 students from ETH Zurich and the University of Zurich. They mainly know each other from the student organisation "tanzquotient.org" and have dedicated their free time to Latin dancing. However, they do not devote themselves to couple dancing, but have now become a
Standard European champions switch to the pros
The European Standard Championships in Vilnius/Lithuania, the last international competition of the year, was a successful home match for the defending and reigning world champions Evaldas Sodeika/Ieva Zukauskaite. In front of their enthusiastic home crowd, who celebrated them with a standing ovation during the Quickstep, they won the last title of their amateur career without any danger. Because after the competition they gave up after 3
