Dear
Dance Friends !
Mannheim 2008 -
Open to the World - Centre of free
dancesport
After last year's
overwhelming success of the International Dance
Masters - Open to the world 2007; an even bigger
and better version of this dance sport event
will take place in 2008...
From 3 - 5 October 2008
the Mannheim with its Congress Centre
Rosengarten will turn into the centre of the
dancing world.
Apart from the 2007
m)))motion International Dance Masters
celebrated by 8000 participants and visitors
this year will present a never before seen
highlight in the amateur category.
The team of organisers
around Stefan Ossenkop along with the amateur
dance organisation DAT (Deutsches Amateur
Turnieramt) with its Sports Director Gerd
Weissenberg managed to bring the Amateur World
Championships for international dance sport
organisation IDSA - International Dance Sport
Association to the Mannheimer
Rosengarten.
For the first time in
the history of the amateur dance sport, World
Championships open to all amateurs will be held.
We expect couples from 40 nations to take part
in this event.
Any amateur couple has
the right to take part no matter which dance
organisation they belong to.
Up until now events
were allocated for only one discipline and age
group, Mannheim will enter pastures new in that
area as well.
The Board of the IDSA
has allocated all championships in all age
groups to Mannheim. This means that from 3 - 5
October 2008 23 world championships will take
place under one roof. A total of 25.000$ price
money will be paid to the winners and
finalists.
The DAT, the dance
sport organisation of the Berufsverbandes
Deutscher Tanzlehrer will also hold their 2008
championships in the Mannheimer Rosengarten.
These tournaments are only open to hobby-
and sporting-couples from the BDT/DAT and ADTV
dance schools.
Over 3 days visitors
and dancers can enjoy 100 events in various age
groups, disciplines and various types of dancing
on a 22.000 square metres of the newly
refurbished Mannheimer Congress Centre
Rosengarten.
