The competition is held by the Russian Dance Union, under the auspices of the World Dance Council and with the support of the Moscow Federation of Sports Dance.
“We always expect beauty of performance and high-quality performance from our participants, because dance is not just a technique of movements, dance has its own language, emotions, history,” says the host of the evening sections, Stanislav Grigorievich Povov, President of the Russian Dance Union.
