One team per country, 15 entries total! Participation in the WDSF PD World Ten Dance is in line with one had come to expect for the discipline. Maybe a few more couples, some representing the Asian nations, would have been on the organisers' wish list ... And on that of WDSF PD Director Verena Sulek: an even higher number to reflect just how much the Professional Division is growing from one year to the next.

Welcome to Transylvania ... Words made famous by Bram Stoker's 'Count Dracula' ... From Brasov, in the very heart of the region and near Bran castle, the most famous of all castles linked to the Dracula legend, a WDSF Communications team will report on two top-level DanceSport events that are part of the Transylvanian Grand Prix and held over the weekend.
On 20 September it is the 2014 WDSF PD World DanceSport Championship Ten Dance that will be the focus of the team made up of Martin Branc and his wife. On Sunday 21 September, the two will report with video and photography from the 2014 European Youth Standard.
All reporting is done as "close to real-time as possible" - but additional time allowances will need to be made for the relaying of all video files from Brasov. On top, this blog shares the limelight with another - Live from Chengdu - which will undoubtedly lead to additional delays in terms of turn-around and posting.
