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
7th place at the World Championships Ten Dance
Corrodi/Kucharczyk with career-best result Davide Corrodi/Maja Kucharczyk from Tanzsportclub Zug (TSCZ) achieved an outstanding 7th place at the World Ten Dance Championships in Villa Nova de Famalicao/POR. They only just missed out on the final, but delivered their personal career-best result. The title went to Williamson/Myshoko (UKR), silver to Fazullin/Iwanska (POL) and bronze to Pèekunov/Kastelic (SLO). "This is our most valuable
Best career result for Corrodi/Kucharczyk
The Zug dance couple Davide Corrodi/Maja Kucharczyk achieved their career-best result at the World Championships Standard. They reached the quarter-finals in Wuxi, a city of over a million inhabitants in eastern China, and finished in 20th place among 62 couples. It is probably the most valuable World Cup result of a Swiss dancing couple this millennium. "The quarter-final, i.e. a top 24 finish, was our big goal.
Corrodi/Kucharczyk lead WDSF ranking
Davide Corrodi/Maja Kucharczyk once again scored an exploit at their last international start of the year; at the WDSF Open in Zagreb they achieved the place of honour in the ten dance for the second time within a few weeks and thus lifted themselves to the top of the WDSF ranking for the first time. Congratulations to them! At the beginning of December in Rimini they were still behind the
STSV Standard Couples Climb the World Ranking List
Two top Swiss couples in the standard main category are steadily climbing up the WDSF world rankings: Davide Corrodi/Maya Kucharczyk from TSCZ are now within touching distance of the top 50 thanks to their numerous starts abroad and good placings. If they break through this "sound barrier", they will have the advantage at major tournaments that they only have to dance from the second round onwards, which means better chances of success.
