Dear Members and Friends of Artistic Dance!
It is my great pleasure to inform you all that Dance Institutions and Dance Schools from around the world have applied for WADF Membership in large numbers.
During the past three weeks new members have joined our family from Belarus, Bulgaria, Canada, Denmark, Hungary, Italy, Montenegro, Netherlands, Romania, Slovakia, South Africa and Sweden. The WADF membership will soon pass through the 100 ceiling.
It is especially exciting to see that not only Couple Dance Institutions and Dance Schools are joining but the new members are coming mainly from the Stage and Street dance sections. Our Managing Committee and Ambassadors are doing a great job informing their colleagues of the possibilities offered by the WADF to develop their businesses.
The enrolments for Liberec are increasing daily, to the extent that when the deadline passes we estimate to have received 3000 enrolments. Competitors and relatives who have not yet booked their accommodation a special document for the World Championships has been prepared. Go to http://media.worldartdance.com/2014/07/Accommodation-offer-Babylon-2014-Copy.pdf These special prices are only available directly from the organizers. Email: [email protected] We are looking forward to a fantastic week of dancing in three halls with practically all WADF disciplines included in the programme. Many voluntary judges will be needed, we wish you all a hearty welcome.
See you all in Liberec.
