THE FINAL Slow Fox of the 2012 WDSF World DanceSport Championship Senior I Standard.
During the GrandSlam and World Senior I Standard nearly everyone had a story to tell about making his or her way to Antwerp. Transalpine travel seemed particularly difficult. Italy and Belgium were farther apart with every inch of snow that fell in either country. Two stories of travel and hardship!
... The 2011 World Champions Tassilo and Sabine Lax defended their title successfully in Antwerp. The new champions are the "old" champions. And seniors at that!
Runners-up were the two couples from Italy, who made it all the way to the podium after going through the redance. A great final, with superb dancing and tight competition between the six couples.
